The Central American Bank for Economic Integration (CABEI) is providing funding for the selection and hiring of companies to build four school centers in Costa Rica. The funds will be used for the study, design, and construction of facilities in the Guanacaste province.
The bids are part of the Emergency Program for Comprehensive and Resilient Infrastructure Reconstruction, which aims to repair and construct 36 schools across 28 cantons.
Below are the details for each bid:
- El Coco School: New construction work will be undertaken, including an expansion of the existing school infrastructure and additional works such as a black and greywater system.
- Nicoya Technical Professional High School: This project involves the demolition of the existing infrastructure and the construction of new facilities.
- Brazilito School: New construction will take place on a greenfield site.
- Victoriano Mena School: All required technical inputs for the construction are available (approved and endorsed plans and environmental viability). However, the environmental viability of the project has expired, so the contractor will need to manage its renewal.
The Ministry of Public Education is responsible for the procurement of design, construction, and equipping of educational infrastructure. To this end, it invites companies to submit sealed bids for a single responsibility and lump-sum contract, covering all stages of the project from design to construction and equipping of the educational center.
Companies will be selected through an international competition, following the procedures established by CABEI in its Policy for the Procurement of Goods, Works, Services, and Consultancies with Resources, as well as its Application Standards.
All bids must be accompanied by a Bid Maintenance Statement.
Bid submission deadline: September 3, 2024.
