What the City of Tustin is buying

Key dates and what happens at the deadline

Applications are being accepted until December 31, 2026, at 3:00 PM ET. At this deadline, the application period for the 2026 list will close. The City will then use the compiled list to send notifications for various consultant services as they are needed during 2026.

This opportunity is suitable for professional consulting firms interested in providing services to the City of Tustin. It is particularly relevant for consultants who wish to be considered for informal projects and receive direct notifications about these needs throughout the year.
