> Over the past four decades, the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) has evolved as the largest of nearly 700 councils of government in the United States, functioning as the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for six counties: Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino, Riverside, Ventura and Imperial.
> As the designated MPO, SCAG is mandated by the federal government to research and put together plans for transportation, growth management, hazardous waste management, and air quality.
> SCAG relies heavily on outside consultants and vendors to help accomplish the overall mission and objectives of SCAG. We are always striving to increase the breadth and depth of talent in our pool of potential consultants and vendors, and are especially interested in bringing more certified DBEs into the database.
