Public Outreach Services for Measure M Environmental Mitigation Program

The Orange County Transportation Authority is seeking public outreach services for the Measure M Environmental Mitigation Program to communicate the program's purpose, benefits, and activities. The agency needs to support meaningful public participation and education while promoting program activities, events, and initiatives. The selected contractor will produce high-quality outreach materials and digital communications, as well as provide reporting, documentation, and performance evaluation. The scope of work requires comprehensive outreach planning and strategy development. These plans must identify target audiences and stakeholder strategies, establish outreach objectives with measurable outcomes, and define communication approaches and schedules. The agency also requires an assessment of translation needs alongside a detailed budget and schedule for all outreach activities. Only onshore organizations based in the United States are eligible to bid on this opportunity. The agency is awarding a contract with a performance period of three years, and the work will be performed entirely offsite. Bidders must submit their proposals digitally via email or through the online portal, though the agency has not disclosed a specific budget and is looking for cost proposals. The agency will host a pre-bid meeting on June 23, 2026, to address initial inquiries. Bidders must submit all clarification questions no later than June 24, 2026. The agency will evaluate proposals based on the submitted outreach strategies, qualifications, and proposed budgets.
