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 in increasing access to
water supply and sanitation services as well as improving key hygiene
behaviors among urban poor and vulnerable populations. Implemented by
DAI Global LLC, IUWASH PLUS works with governmental agencies, the
private sector, NGOs, communities and others to achieve the following
"high level" results:
· An
increase of one million people in urban areas with access to improved
water supply of which at least 500,000 are from the poorest 40% of the
population; and
· An
increase of 500,000 people in urban areas with access to an improved
sanitation facility and all of whom are from the poorest 40% of the
population.
To ensure that improvements in access to WASH
services are sustained, 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, IUWASH PLUS
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.
DAI, the implementer of the “The
USAID Indonesia Urban Water, Sanitation and Hygiene 'Penyehatan
Lingkungan Untuk Semua' (IUWASH PLUS) program invites qualified offerors
to submit proposals to supply and deliver “Construction of 18 units
Shared Septic Systems in Densely Populated Communities of Kota Magelang,
Central Java” in support of program implementation.
Kota
Magelang in Central Java has a population of around 125,000 people (or
25,000 households) and high levels of Open Defecation, shown in recent
STBM data from Health Department (more than 27% of the total population
without access to a safe sanitation system) especially in the many
densely populated neighborhood across all 17 Kelurahan. Because of
limited space and sloping ground, the only option is to utilize smaller
areas of communal or social land or space under small alleys to
construct sealed, shared sanitation systems (for 2 -10 families). The
development and construction of these systems is not easy and require
flexible designs and construction methods to accommodate the various
locations and construction risks.. Finally, promoting these to low
income communities will be challenging, as they might be reluctant to
allow construction such a system so close to their houses
USAID
IUWASH PLUS has discussed this with PEMDA Kota Magelang, which
expressed great interest for IUWASH PLUS assistance in the development
and testing of appropriate designs and methods of constructing of shared
septic tanks in densely populated areas in Magelang. PEMDA promised to
finance the replication of such systems from their local budget (APBD),
as well as through other programs such as KOTAKU and, possibly, CSR from
local companies.
In order to response request from
Government of Magelang City above, IUWASH PLUS required construction of
18 units Shared Septic System in Densely Populated Communities of Kota
Magelang estimated on December 2018.
This SOW
is the 4th stage of all LSIC stages, where at the previous stages,
IUWASH PLUS already selected 20 location to build shared septic system
including site plan of specific location, also agreement were made with
households to be connected. The Technical Service Provider of LSIC USAID
IUWASH PLUS already made design and tested construction as prototype in
2 location, learned about construction method, timeline and real
costing. The result of these lessons learned during construction of the 2
prototypes are used as basis for this SOW. For those who match the
qualifications, IUWASH PLUS inviting you to submit proposal, as the
files attached or check the link as follows :
Thank you very much for your kind attention & best cooperation.
