It is my pleasure to write this letter of recommendation for Cogent Analytics, and in particular, to recognize the outstanding contributions of Jim Capps, our Project Manager, and Kevin Cummins, Cogent’s lead advisor.
As the President of a small structural engineering firm, I understand the unique challenges that come with running a growing business. From the start of our engagement, Jim and Kevin brought a level of insight, professionalism, and strategic thinking that exceeded my expectations. They took the time to understand our company’s operations, culture, and goals—o7ering guidance that was not only practical but immediately actionable.
Jim’s project management skills were exceptional. He kept us focused, accountable, and moving forward. His ability to break down complex processes and lead with clarity and patience was instrumental in our successful implementation of several key initiatives. Kevin, with his high-level perspective and business acumen, provided valuable direction and helped us develop long-term strategies that will shape our company for years to come.
Their combined support helped us gain new operational clarity, improve internal systems, and better position ourselves for sustainable growth. Most importantly, they approached their work with genuine care for our success.
I highly recommend Cogent Analytics to any business owner looking for experienced, trustworthy partners in business improvement—and I give my strongest endorsement to both Jim Capps and Kevin Cummins. They are an exceptional team.
Sincerely,
Michael Stone, PE
