• The Government of Barbados (GOB), through its execution agency, the Barbados Water Authority (BWA), has embarked on the Greening Initiative program with its goal of addressing increased resilience of the Barbados Water Authority (BWA) water supply system and providing greater sustainability to meet its customer needs while maintaining the required services standards delivery as required. This is to be achieved partly by reintroducing the Personal Tank Program (PTP), which will consist of installing 1500 water storage tank systems at various locations throughout the island.

  • Proponents must first register on the portal to submit their proposals. Detailed instructions for registration are available at: https://procure.gov.bb/home
  • A bid/proposal shall be considered only if it complies with the conditions set out in the bid package.
  • The BWA does not bind itself to accept the lowest or any bid/proposal and reserves the right to withdraw this RFP, reject any and all proposals, and accept any proposal deemed to be in the best interest of the GOB.
  • Submissions should be uploaded to the Government of Barbados’ e-procurement portal at https://gov-bb.bonfirehub.com/portal/?tab=openOpportunities no later than January 15th, 2025, 11:30 pm Barbados/AST.
