Dear Consultant:
The City of Alexandria is requesting the services of a consulting engineering firm to
perform the described professional services for the project included on the attached list.
If your firm would like to be considered for these consulting services, you may express
your interest by responding to the appropriate office, which is indicated on the
attachments. Limit your letter of interest to no more than 2 pages. This letter should
include any information which might help us in the selection process, such as the persons
or team you would assign to each project, the backgrounds of those individuals, and other
projects your company has recently completed or are now active. It is required that your
firm’s Statement of Qualification (RSMo 8.285 through 8.291) be submitted with your
firm’s Letter of Interest, or be on file with the City of Alexandria. The statement of
qualification is not included in the total page count limit.
DBE firms must be listed in the MRCC DBE Directory located on MoDOT’s website at

Goal. We encourage DBE firms to submit letters of interest as prime consultants for any
project they feel can be managed by their firm.
It is required that your firm be prequalified with MoDOT and listed in MoDOT’s
Approved Consultant Prequalification List, or your firm will be considered non-
responsive.
We request all letters are received by 4pm, July 17th, 2026 at PO Box 147, Alexandria,
