About the Southwestern Ohio Educational Purchasing Council (EPC)

The Southwestern Ohio Educational Purchasing Council (EPC) is a council of governments that has pooled the purchasing power of Ohio school districts since 1968. Governed by its member districts, the EPC uses their combined volume to competitively establish contracts across nearly everything a district buys — from classroom supplies, transportation, and health benefits to facilities and design-build construction. For member districts, that means better pricing and a faster, compliant path to the vendors and services they need.

Why Districts Choose the EPC

  • Trusted since 1968 — one of Ohio’s longest-running educational purchasing cooperatives, built and governed by the districts it serves.

  • Purpose-built for schools — membership and contracts are designed around the needs of Ohio school districts and county boards of developmental disabilities.

  • Aggregated buying power — hundreds of member districts combine volume to secure competitive pricing a single district would struggle to match on its own.

  • Design-Build Program — the EPC’s Design Build Program lets districts deliver HVAC, roofing, and renovation projects through competitively established cooperative contracts — the program Prodigy is awarded under.

How Districts Join

Membership is open to school districts and county boards of developmental disabilities in the EPC region. Once a member, a district can take advantage of every EPC program — including the Design Build Program — without running its own separate procurement. Join the EPC.
