The Cooperative Council of Governments, or CCOG, is an Ohio regional council of governments and political subdivision.
A regional council of governments is a type of public agency composed of local governments to facilitate cooperation, coordination, and planning among its members. These councils are created to address issues and challenges that require a collaborative approach, such as cooperative purchasing.
CCOG was formed in 2013 to lessen the burdens of its members by (a) developing and implementing certain sound business practices and processes as shared services to be made available to its members, (b) developing and operating as a collective purchasing and service organization to enable its members to obtain competitive terms from vendors and service providers by utilizing the combined purchasing power of all of its members, and (c) serving as a lead agency for and contract holder of Equalis Group, a public sector purchasing cooperative organization.
We are proud to provide publicly procured, competitively solicited cooperative purchasing contracts that enable public agencies (including state agencies, local governments, and educational institutions) and other entities across the country to save time, save money, and stay legal through our partnership with the Equalis Group cooperative purchasing organization.
