The Project Implementing Agency for the Guyana Coastal Adaptation and Resilience Project is pleased to invite manufacturers, authorized distributors, and logistics providers to a virtual Early Market Engagement (EME) session in advance of a forthcoming procurement for Supply and Delivery of Materials for Categories 2 and 3 Works, with a total estimated value of USD 10 million.

The main objectives of Guyana Coastal Adaptation and Resilience Project are to enhance climate adaptation and reduce flood risk in urban and rural areas in the coastal plain. The project will consider both existing and projected future land uses (rural, semi-urban, urban), population growth and urbanization, exposed assets, and relevant climate change impacts to support climate adaptation. The proposed project will also support enhanced asset management, operation and maintenance, as well as measures for improved flood management in new developments and urbanizing areas.

The bidding opportunity will be structured as three lots:

Lot 1: Steel Sheet Piles

Lot 2: Material for Stainless Steel Doors

Lot 3: Geosynthetic & Synthetic Elastomer Materials to Support Sluice maintenance

This virtual event will help the Project Implementing Agency and potential bidders to (i) share preliminary information on scope and requirements, (ii) get insights into the market capacity, capability and trends, (iii) consider cost/value impacts, benefits and key risks, and (iv) to capture supplier perspectives on the bid requirements, specification clarity, and feasible delivery options.

Following the EME, the Project Implementing Agency will finalize technical specifications and issue the formal bidding documents. The procurement will be conducted in accordance with applicable national regulations and the World Bank Procurement Regulations for IPF Borrowers.
