The firms submitting applications are expected to prepare the water development feasibility report which will lead to test borehole drilling in regions with potential for groundwater. The assignment will also include recommending drilling depths and supervise borehole drilling.
Only the providers registered with the Procurement Regulatory Authority of Zimbabwe can submit applications. The firms are also expected to submit CVs of qualified and experienced personnel holding a Masters of Science degree in Hydrogeology or the equivalent and with at least 10 years of experience post qualification.
To support the efforts to address long term water crisis by the city, the African Development Bank has granted $33 million under the Bulawayo Water and Sewerage Services Improvement Project (BWSSIP).
