Key requirements include conducting site visits and ensuring compliance with water resource management standards.
The Inkomati-Usuthu Catchment Management Agency (IUCMA) invites qualified bidders to provide professional services for the development, design, and monitoring of bulk water meter installations. This project aims to enhance water resource management by accurately monitoring water abstraction upstream of the Kwena Dam, where approximately 80% of abstraction points are currently unmetered. The successful service provider will conduct site visits to verify abstraction points, design installation plans, and supervise the implementation process to ensure compliance with relevant regulations.
The scope of work includes several key tasks: initiating and planning the project, conducting thorough site investigations, analyzing data, and developing solutions for effective meter installations. The provider will also support procurement processes, manage contractor performance, and ensure that all installations meet the required technical specifications. This initiative is crucial for improving water accounting and management within the region, ultimately supporting sustainable water use and compliance with the National Water Act.
This tender is suitable for engineering firms, environmental consultants, and contractors with experience in water resource management, civil engineering, and project supervision, particularly those familiar with municipal water projects and compliance with South African water regulations.
