We look forward to continuing to work with the Cognition+ Team in the future as they work to provide their mutual customers with a leading insurance system. In my 36 years of experience, the best long-term solutions for the mutuals are the ones that are built by the mutuals … for the mutuals.” added Alec.

“It’s inspiring to our teams to be working with the mutual community and delivering solutions that ensure they will continue to support their local communities.  The mutual insurance model is a great example of how local business can support communities, allowing them to continue to thrive.  HTM is a great example of how the ‘forward thinking’ approach has kept mutuality growing for more than 100 years, while many other businesses have failed or merged.  Providing efficient and cost effective insurance software is Cognition+’s sole purpose.  One that we have taken very seriously for the past 26 years.  We’re looking forward to providing a seamless implementation project in this initial phase, and are excited to continue to work with our community on evolving further digital solutions across the insurance paradigm.”, stated Randy Straeten, President & CEO of Cognition+.
