# Étude de marché pour un système d’assainissement à Caye Caulker, Belize

Belize Water Services Limited (BWS), avec le financement de la Banque interaméricaine de développement (BID), demande des informations sur un système d’assainissement envisagé à Caye Caulker. Le concept comprend une station d’épuration et un réseau d’égouts sous vide. Cette demande d’informations (RFI) sert uniquement à l’étude de marché : elle ne préqualifie ni n’évalue les entreprises, ne confère aucun avantage lors d’un futur marché et ne donnera pas lieu elle-même à une attribution. BWS prévoit une future mise en concurrence internationale ouverte aux entreprises et consortiums des pays membres de la BID, attendue au dernier trimestre 2026. Les réponses à la RFI sont demandées en anglais avant le 25 octobre 2026 à 14 h 00, heure du Belize. Le décalage UTC n’est pas indiqué ; l’échéance publique est donc donnée à la date seulement et l’heure source est conservée dans son libellé. Deux lots de marchés futurs sont envisagés : trois lots de fournitures et deux lots de travaux, avec une mise en œuvre d’environ 48 mois après l’entrée en vigueur des contrats.

With the ﬁnancing from the Inter-American Development Bank\n(IDB), BWS is interested in procuring the services required for the Design, Supply and Installation\nof a Wastewater Treatment System, including an MABR Wastewater Treatment Plant and\nVacuum Sewer network at Caye Caulker (Appendix 1 Table 1).\nThis request for information (RFI) seeks to identify the availability, particularities, and/or operational,\ntechnical, functional, and commercial characteristics, as well as the qualiﬁcations and experiences\nof potential bidders interested in participating in the procurement process. The information provided\nwill be used exclusively for market research by BWS and will not be subject to any public disclosure.\nNote that this RFI is for market research only and will not be used to prequalify or evaluate ﬁrms and\nwill not give any respondent an advantage in future procurement. Any costs incurred in preparing\nresponses to the RFI or attending any virtual meeting will be solely at the responsibility of the\ninterested companies.\n\nAs part of the Program, BWS intends to procure the supply, installation, commissioning and training\nfor a vacuum wastewater network and a Membrane Aerated Bioﬁlm Reactor (MABR) in Caye Caulker.\nThe procurement is currently envisaged to comprise two (2) packages, with the ﬁrst package being\nfor the procurement of Goods containing three (3) Lots while the second package encompasses the\nprocurement for Works made of two (2) Lots (presented in Appendix 1 Table 2). Bidders may be\nawarded more than one Lot, subject to demonstrating adequate technical, ﬁnancial, and\nimplementation capacity. Regardless of whether the Lots are awarded to one or several providers,\nimplementation of the wastewater network and wastewater treatment plant is expected to proceed\nin parallel, with systems to be completed within a common implementation period of approximately\n48 months from contract effectiveness.\n\nThe proposed investments are expected to include, among other things, wastewater vacuum\nnetworks with vacuum valves and chambers; vacuum station with a full set of equipment with\nbackup generators, fuel storage and spares; MABR wastewater package plants; control systems,\nmonitoring and communication systems; civil works; and other equipment and services necessary\nto provide reliable collection and optimum treatment of the inﬂuent wastewater from the beneﬁciary\ncommunities and environment. Additionally, the contracts will also include a comprehensive training\nprogram for BWS staff for the Operations and Maintenance for all systems within the project scope.\n\nThe procurement of these goods and works will be carried out through an International Competitive\nBidding with open to all companies or consortia interested from IDB member countries. The bidding\nprocess (including a prequaliﬁcation process) is expected to take place during the last quarter of\n2026, following the IDB's Procurement Policies and will be published both on the Inter-American\nDevelopment Bank’s Procurement Portal and on procurement.gov.bz/opportunities. Therefore,\n\nBelize Water Services (BWS) is interested in receiving the following information before 2:00 p.m.\n(Belize time) on 25th October 2026, at the email address: [official response address omitted].\n\n1.
