UNICEF is soliciting proposals under solicitation number LRQS-2026-9207201 for an applied Transient Electromagnetic (TEM) and groundwater assessment training program in Teouma, Efate, Vanuatu. The primary objective is to strengthen the practical capacity of 15 to 20 local, regional, and UNICEF personnel to plan, conduct, and interpret TEM surveys. The scope of work includes the delivery of a five-day tailored course and the completion of field-based groundwater assessments and potential mapping at three specific sites: Nuakwanabu Primary School, Greenhill Primary School, and Nakuskasaru School. Key deliverables include quality-controlled TEM datasets, site maps, inversion outputs, ranked borehole investigation targets, standard operating procedures, and a final training package. Bids must be submitted by November 12, 2026, and must consist of a separate technical proposal and a signed financial proposal providing a lump sum amount for all deliverables. Proposals will be evaluated based on mandatory requirements, technical compliance, and commercial viability, with the award granted to the lowest priced technically compliant bidder. The contractor is responsible for the technical quality of all data and training, as well as ensuring valid health insurance and visas for personnel. All resulting contracts are governed by UNICEF's General Terms and Conditions of Contract for Services, and final acceptance of the deliverables is contingent upon approval by UNICEF and the DOWR/MOET.
