Regional Planning Kern COG is a small regional government planning organization with 11-50 employees and a multi-agency network including county, city, tribal, and state/federal partners. This suggests opportunities for targeted B2G solutions that support collaboration, data sharing, and grant management across multiple jurisdictions.

Technology Stack The tech stack includes cloud services (AWS, Microsoft 365), content management (Joomla, WordPress), marketing/engagement tools (Constant Contact), and e-commerce capabilities (Shopify). Potential upsell in cloud governance, security, site optimization, CMS modernization, and citizen engagement platforms.

Engagement Channel Past initiatives show active public outreach (online surveys, community workshops) and partnerships with transit agencies. This indicates openness to citizen feedback tools, survey analytics, and public engagement platforms that streamline stakeholder participation.

Funding Focus As a regional planning body aligned with state and federal funding priorities, Kern COG may benefit from solutions that assist with grant management, compliance tracking, performance dashboards, and reporting to funders.

Growth & Reputation With a modest revenue bracket and a history of regional awards, there is potential to package value-add offerings around transportation planning analytics, data visualization, and scalable collaboration tools to support expanding programs and recognition-driven projects.
