Submitting Expressions of Interest Consultant selection for technical assistance grants are based on the consultant’s prior Expression of Interest (EOI). A good EOI should reflect the firm's experience and expertise in relation to the ADB project being pursued. It is important for a U.S. firm to emphasize this, or similar project experience in the country or in a similar geographic area rather than state a general profile of its consulting activities. When submitting an EOI, the project name should exactly match the one listed in this report to avoid confusion. Each project requires a separate EOI. An EOI should be submitted on-line through the ADB website at Firms may send a hardcopy follow-up to the Director, Central Operations Services 1 Division or to the Director, Central Operations Services 2 Division, with a copy to the ADB Project Officer.
