What Is the CRCOG VoIP Contract for CT Towns & Schools?
In 2015, the Capitol Region Council of Governments (CRCOG) awarded a competitively bid contract to Genie Innovations, Inc. (IP Genie) to provide VoIP services to Connecticut municipalities, schools, and libraries—eliminating the need for a formal RFP.
In 2024, IP Genie merged with CCi Voice, a locally based communications and security provider with over 40 years of experience. The merger retained all existing contract benefits and expanded the scope to include video surveillance, access control, and emergency notification systems—making CCi Voice your trusted, all-in-one technology partner under the CRCOG contract.
