Request For Proposal (RFP) : GIS Facilitator for PDAMs Spatial Data Development Kab. Rembang, Batang, and Sukoharjo, Central Java

The Indonesia Urban Water Sanitation and Hygiene (IUWASH) project is a sixty-month program funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and implemented under the leadership of IUWASH works with government, the private sector, NGOs, community groups and other stakeholders to improve access to safe water supply and sanitation in Indonesia’s urban areas. The overall goal of IUWASH is to assist the Government of Indonesia (GOI) in making significant progress in achieving its safe water and sanitation Millennium Development Goal (MDG) targets by expanding access to these services. The expected results to be achieved are: (a) Two million people in urban areas gain access to improved water supply; (b) 250,000 people in urban areas gain access to improved sanitation facilities; and (c) the per unit water cost paid by the poor in targeted areas decreases by at least 20%.  To achieve the above, technical assistance is divided in three main technical components:

  • Mobilizing demand for water supply and sanitation service delivery; 
  • Improving and expanding capacity for water and sanitation service delivery; and
  • Strengthening policy and the financial enabling environment for improved water supply and sanitation service delivery.
Activity Description:
Water supply distribution with the best quality of water for all customer is still remaining the most challenging target faced by state water utility (Perusahaan Daerah Air Minum/ PDAM), beside to reduce non revenue water (NRW). Limited water resources, unstable zoning system and poor of water flow analysis are well known as the causes of this issue. Only very limited PDAMs has planning and drawing of existing distribution network system using digital based technologies, while most of PDAMs still working manually, as well as data records and management of pipeline network and its supporting components.

PDAMs in Central Java provinces are aware to their current condition. Based on a short review and visits to a number of PDAM in Central Java region, IUWASH has found that, mostly PDAMs in Central Java region are shown a great interest to have the digital database (computerized), such as pipeline network, accessories, customer location, road and river networks, contour line, and administrative boundaries as well as to develop zoning system. They are understood and agreed that by developing a digital database, they will have ability to improve their quality services to their customer. As a wider impact, this activities also will increase their reputation and financial health and able to increase service coverage as well as reducing NRW.
