CCOG conducts rigorous and transparent competitive public sector procurement processes for critical products and services. Winning suppliers, distributors, and/or manufacturers are selected based on both qualitative criteria and pricing. CCOG then establishes compliant already-procured Master Agreements with these winning suppliers that feature better pricing and improved contract terms and conditions. These Master Agreements are available to public agencies nationwide who become CCOG Affiliate Members by joining Equalis Group.
CCOG’s publicly procured, competitively solicited contracts are listed here.
CCOG conducts competitive solicitations, typically through Requests for Proposals, in accordance with the state statutes that govern its public sector procurement processes. Each solicitation is posted online and advertised nationwide in USA Today and numerous local newspapers across the country. Solicitations include rigorous compliance conditions, such as: Uniform Guidance and 2 CFR Part 200 requirements; Davis-Bacon Act requirements; mandatory certifications; certain state-specific requirements; lobbying prohibitions; and equal employment opportunity and affirmative action requirements.
