About G2G Marketplace & the Cooperative Program

The G2G Marketplace and Cooperative Program were developed by Oakland County, Michigan to offer products, solutions, and services from approved suppliers to government agencies through an online procurement center.

The goal of this initiative is to provide governments with an easy way to research, purchase and implement products, solutions, and services. The G2G Marketplace will simplify the purchasing and licensing process so government agencies can utilize products, solutions, and services quickly.
