Norwegian Church Aid is launching a Local Open Tender and invites interested suppliers/candidates to participate in the procurement procedure for the relevant lot(s):

Background:

Norwegian Church Aid (NCA) and DanChurchAid (DCA) have been active in Zambia for over two decades, and in 2011, the two organizations formalized their collaboration by establishing a Joint Country Programme (JCP). NCA-DCA is an organization committed to promoting global justice and providing humanitarian and development assistance to vulnerable populations, regardless of creed, race, political affiliation, or religious background. Their work spans emergency relief, long-term community development, and advocacy aimed at addressing the structural causes of poverty and inequality.

As part of its WASH programme, NCA-DCA seeks to improve access to sustainable and safe water through the drilling and equipping of four solar-powered water supply systems. These systems are to be established in Rufunsa, Gwembe, Zimba, and Chifunabuli Districts to meet domestic, institutional, and productive water demands. The intervention will contribute to improved public health, increased access to safe water, and strengthened community-based water management.

Technical Specifications and Requirements:

The tender involves detailed specifications for borehole drilling, including equipment standards, hydrogeological surveys, borehole logging, casing, and borehole development and testing. The work must adhere to the highest standards using the best tools, materials, and skilled labor.
