Northeast Ohio: 10 Years of Collaboration: Defining The Cogence Way

  • The January 2026 Roundtable was titled: 10 Years of Collaboration: Defining The Cogence Way
  • A Cogence task force developed a framework outlining our Core Values and Fundamentals for leading and executing projects The Cogence Way.
  • Cogence partners were asked:
    • How do these Values and Fundamentals resonate with you?
    • How can all stakeholders embrace them in practice?
    • What strategies will make these principles actionable?
  • Discussion followed about how these values and fundamentals can unite owners, designers, builders, and trade partners—resulting in better outcomes for all.
