Cogun Process
Design, Development and Construction Expertise
Whether your church is contemplating a complete campus relocation, expansion on your existing site, or renovation of existing facilities, our “one-stop-shop” approach provides complete project coordination. Our team approach includes real estate assistance, design coordination, project costing, value management, project financing and construction. Unlike the traditional multiple-provider approach, an integrated Cogun team manages the entire process, from pre-design to post-construction services.
Single-source responsibility means less of your church leadership time is spent orchestrating efforts of separate firms, and more time on ministry and membership growth, while still maintaining control over the project. Cogun has developed an exceptional ability to navigate the complex world of site selection, code impacts, zoning, variances, master planning, building systems, material selection and on going costing in a way that maximizes the church's value while being mindful of church schedules and timelines.
Our development expertise combined with our industry partner relationships with furniture, technology, financing, capital campaign and church health consultants allows Cogun to provide the best ministry space possible for your church.
Management and Stewardship of Church Resources
Over the years, Cogun has seen countless churches spend thousands of dollars on plans for ministry space that are now on dusty shelves, having never been built. Cogun is proud of the fact that our team of professionals have successfully designed over 650 projects into budget over the last 38 years that were actually built.
Knowing your church’s real financial capabilities up front, counting the cost before you start design, and then designing into a budget with church development professionals, is the best approach to assure a successful project. In our partnership with the church, we offer a lump sum price, within your church’s budget, that results in a quality design that meets ministry needs and a building you can afford.
