DAI,
implementer of the USAID funded Indonesia Urban Water, Sanitation and
Hygiene Penyehatan Lingkungan Untuk Semua (IUWASH PLUS) Project,
invites qualified bidders to submit proposals/bids for : "Individual Consultant for GIS Facilitation PDAM Kabupaten Sidoarjo".
Background
The
USAID Indonesia Urban Water, Sanitation and Hygiene, Penyehatan
Lingkungan Untuk Semua (IUWASH PLUS) program is a five-year initiative
designed to assist the Government of Indonesia (GOI) in increasing
access to water supply and sanitation services as well as improving key
hygiene behaviors among urban poor and vulnerable populations. USAID
IUWASH PLUS works with governmental agencies, the private sector, NGOs,
communities and others to achieve the following "high level" results:
1. An
increase of one million people in urban areas with access to improved
water supply service quality, of which at least 500,000 are from the
poorest 40% of the population (also referred to as the “Bottom 40%” or
“B40”), vulnerable groups or Indonesia’s eastern provinces; and
2. An increase of 500,000 people in urban areas with access to safely managed sanitation.
To
ensure that improvements in access to WASH services are sustained,
USAID IUWASH PLUS is guided by a development hypothesis that focuses on
strengthening service delivery systems, so they can more effectively
reach the poorest and most vulnerable segments of the population. In
order to achieve this at scale, the program undertakes activities
through four interrelated components, including: 1) improving household
WASH services; 2) strengthening city WASH institutional performance; 3)
strengthening the WASH financing environment; and 4) advancing national
WASH advocacy, coordination and communication. In support of these
components, USAID IUWASH PLUS also implements a Local Sustainability and
Innovation Component (LSIC) that is designed to stimulate WASH
innovations that strengthen community, private sector and government
WASH service provision.
Activity Summary
The provision of piped water
supply in urban areas remains challenging for many Indonesian municipalities
due to persistently high rates of Non-Revenue Water (NRW), unstable water
pressure between service zones, and a host of other issues. While technologies
such as Geographic Information Systems (GIS) can substantially improve a water
utility’s (PDAM’s) ability to address such issues, many lack in-depth
familiarity with GIS or the capacity to maximize its use. This is the case with
the PDAMs of Kabupaten Sidoarjo in East Java which has a keen interest in
improving their GIS capacity, but which has limited capability. This has been
the subject of discussion among multiple parties involved in NRW reduction
programming, including Dit SPAM (Ministry of PUPR), World Bank, USAID IUWASH
PLUS, and concerned PDAMs and local government (LGs). Based on these
discussions, and to determine if the PDAM of Kabupaten Sidoarjo is ready to
receive NRW assistance, a review of its GIS capacity
was conducted and included examining the availability of staff and quality of
spatial data related to its distribution network.
The above GIS review indicated that PDAM Kabupaten Sidoarjo has completed about
80% of mapping required of its distribution system, but would benefit
substantially from more concerted technical assistance (to both complete
mapping and ensure it has the degree of quality required). In support of this
requirement,
IUWASH PLUS requires a GIS Facilitator who will be
contracted under a Fixed Price Purchase Order (FPPO) and who will work with the
PDAM of Kabupaten Sidoarjo over a period of three (3) month to complete
development of spatial data and further provide on-the-job to relevant PDAM
staff, and requirement will carry out the
selection through an auction mechanism.
Tender Requirements
The GIS Assistance Program is informed to the public
through the internet media and the Service Provider will be selected through
the tender mechanism. Anyone who meets the requirements can submit a proposal
to follow the tender, as for the requirements are as follows:
·
GIS Assistance Program - The development of spatial data of PDAM's
distribution pipeline network requires one GIS Service Provider, so that the
selection process is open to individual consultant (not companies);
·
The minimum education of the prospective applicant is Bachelor (S1),
preferably has a geo-science background or any related to;
·
