MDOT-ACEC Partnering Workshop
2020 PARTNERING WORKSHOP RECAP
The MDOT ACEC Partnering Workshop continues to grow, setting record attendance year after year. With over 650 registrants, the 2020 Workshop was no exception.
MDOT Director Paul Ajegba, PE, spoke at the opening session. The rest of the morning was filled with 24 concurrent breakout sessions. The afternoon General Session keynote was Dan Oblinger, a hostage negotiator, who spoke on the Art of Negotiations for Design Professionals. A popular feature of this year’s event was the inclusion of the Innovative Technology Room as one of four afternoon roundtables.
During the Opening Session, MDOT Director Paul Ajegba, PE, and ACEC/MI President Steve Gravlin, PE, PS, ceremoniously signed the 2019 MDOT ACEC Partnership Charter. This charter replaces the MDOT ACEC/MI Consultant Partnership Charter of 2013 and, in doing so, expresses a renewed commitment to continuous improvement, teaming and measurement to consistently provide the highest quality products and services for the State of Michigan.
The 2019 MDOT ACEC Partnering Charter Award was presented for the M-60 Reconstruction Project in Spring Arbor. The Project Team was comprised of professionals from the MDOT University Region and Tetra Tech.
