UNICEF requires the service of a contractor/service provider to deliver potable water to at least 15,000-25,000 people (3,000 to 5,000 households) in any of the list of any priority townships in Yangon (attached in Annex 1.0 or other townships in Yangon) by water trucking/purified water bottle on a daily basis for between 75 - 90 days in 2021.

Based on the need; if and when it arises, UNICEF will ask the contractor/service provider to immediately deliver water services within few hours of the disruption of water services. Water trucking services/distribution of purified water bottle will target vulnerable population whose services are disrupted, who cannot afford to buy safe drinking water and who do not access to any other improved water source such as protected hand pump/dug well/tube well which has not dried up.

The contractor/service provider is expected to be ready to be mobilised if there are any urgent needs. Exact number of quantity water needed will depend upon population to be served and duration of the need.

As preparedness measure, UNICEF is inviting water service provider/contractor to submit proposal to establish long term agreement (LTA) with UNICEF. An LTA is an arrangement entered into with a supplier/suppliers to secure the supply of a service (LTAS) over a period of time.
