Requesting Letters of Interest for Wind River Canyon Planning, Traffic and System Resiliency Study

The Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT) is requesting letters of interest (LOI) for Wind River Canyon Planning, Traffic and System Resiliency Study.

Letters are limited to a maximum of two pages and must be submitted on company letterhead. Cover pages are included in the maximum pages. Your Letter of Interest should address the capabilities that your firm has to provide for the attached scope of work and discuss why your firm is best suited for this project-specific solicitation. The LOI may be scanned and emailed to nicole.klassen@wyo.gov or hank.doering@wyo.gov, but must be received no later than January 7, 2025 at 3:00 p.m. Mountain Daylight or Mountain Standard Time, as applicable.

Restrictions on the use of data or information within a LOI must be clearly stated in the LOI itself. Pursuant to Wyoming Statute 16-4-201 through 16-4-205, LOIs are privileged, confidential information only if they contain trade secrets and other valuable information not generally available to competitors. The Department will not release any stated restricted information regarding submitted LOIs. All other information will be considered public information and released upon request by other entities.

WYDOT will acknowledge receipt of LOI submittals, but the burden of submittal and confirmation of receipt prior to the submittal deadline is the sole responsibility of respondents.

Contact by consultants or subconsultants with WYDOT personnel other than those from the Engineering Services Section regarding this request, during this phase of the selection process, will be cause for disqualification.

The preliminary Scope of Work is below.

Responding consultants not already in the WYDOT database must also submit a general Statement of Interest (SOI) that reflects the selection work code and applicable licensing requirements. Once received, this SOI will remain active in the WYDOT Consultant Registry for a period of two years and may be considered for any future selections for applicable work types.

Consultants with current SOIs may update their CS-6/SOI form in the interest of the below project if desired, but it is not required unless the current SOI does not include the selection work code.

New or updated SOIs must be received no later than the LOI due date to be considered for this project. The CS-6/SOI form can be found at this link: CS-6/SOI form.

SOIs and LOIs will be used to determine a short-list of the most qualified firms (5 minimum if at least 5 LOIs are received). Request for Proposals and interviews will be required with the shor-list firms.

Wind River Canyon Planning, Traffic and System Resiliency Study: Work Code PLC-Planning, will be used. This selection will cover comprehensive planning, traffic, and geotechnical study for ML34/US 20 through Wind River Canyon in Fremont and Hot Springs Counties.
