• Description:
• Tenders are invited for Consultant: Construction Implementation Plan during the Start-up Period Scope of Work The Construction Implementation Plan is to be developed in collaboration with the project. The first draft will be due June 19 and the final deliverable will be due June 26, 2023. Given this rapid timeline for delivery, the Construction Implementation Plan will focus on describing an all-encompassing approach to construction activities as listed above. The types of construction are anticipated to include, but are not limited to: • Refurbishment of health facilities, including laboratories, offices, and public spaces • Improving existing spaces to make health facilities more functional for staff, safer, and more appropriate for a diverse cohort of clients (ex. painting an adolescent-friendly corner). The Construction Implementation Plan must be developed to ensure that all construction activities are conducted in an organized and appropriate way in accordance with the plan. The construction must be undertaken with engineering and construction components using a design-bid-build delivery method where architect and engineering (A&E) services and construction works are performed under two separate but complementary contracts. The contractor that undertakes the A&E services (design and construction bidding support) must provide quality assurance and construction oversight services in the construction phase. A&E contracts are to be selected based on demonstrated competence and qualifications. To ensure construction activities are performed appropriately, the A&E firm must be bonded and licensed to operate in Zambia. The cost of any design must not exceed 6% of the cost of the associated construction. Monitoring visits during construction activity will be critical for overseeing work and progress on construction projects. A schedule of announced and unannounced visits will be maintained to verify that construction work is being carried out at an appropriate level of quality that is stipulated in the activity. The construction site will be visited at various critical steps in the construction process, such as borehole drilling, equipping, civil works or tank stand and water network construction to certify the quality of the work and that specific benchmarks have been attained.
