CONTENTS THE MISSION of the Cook County Office of the Chief Procurement Officer (OCPO) is to acquire quality goods and services for Cook County agencies at the best price by promoting competition and implementing best practices.

To achieve this goal, OCPO is committed to implementing open and transparent procurement methods to promote vendor participation while lowering costs to taxpayers.

As a public agency, the Office of the Chief Procurement Officer welcomes all vendors to participate in the open and competitive procurement process. This buying plan contains hundreds of great opportunities for vendors to do business with Cook County.

This buying plan also includes information on numerous County projects and needs. You will find useful information on the department requesting proposals, project descrip-tions, value of contract, anticipated advertising date and various Minority, Women and Veteran Business Enterprise subcontracting opportunities.

OCPO encourages all potential vendors to use the informa-tion provided in this plan to prepare for future solicitations and have a greater chance of success in obtaining County Contracts. Please contact Procurement staff or visit our website at cookcountyil.gov/procurement with any questions regarding procurement and contracting procedures.

Cook County Office of the Chief Procurement Officer 3

Dear Vendor:

Thank you for your interest in doing business with Cook County. The goods and services offered by the vendor community to our County agencies, departments, and separately elected officials, are crucial to improving the lives of our residents. From technology to modernize our justice system to transportation infrastructure improvements, collaboration between the County and its vendors is key to making Cook County a better place to work and live.

In my administration’s drive to improve services and be more transparent and accountable, our procurement office has worked to streamline the procurement process and make it more open and accessible to vendors and residents. By embracing a more transparent and visible procurement process, vendors, particularly small and minority/women owned businesses, have greater opportunities to obtain information and resources. This Buying Plan and the many workshops the procurement office provides exemplify my administration’s efforts to make the County an attractive business partner.

Should you have any questions regarding this Buying Plan or the procurement process please feel free to contact the procure-ment office. Thank you again for your interest in doing business with Cook County. We look forward to working together.

Sincerely,Toni Preckwinkle

Cook County Board President
