Announcement Description

With funding support from WV US-WASH Base Funding, World Vision International-Cambodia (WVI-C) is committed to enhancing the climate resilience and sustainable livelihood security of vulnerable communities in rural areas of Cambodia. This commitment is operationalized through the Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) framework, which seeks to balance the development and management of water, land, and related resources to maximize economic and social welfare without compromising the sustainability of vital ecosystems.

The project area, specifically Ro Ang Commune in Sangkom Thmei District, Preah Vihear Province, is situated within a watershed characterized by pronounced seasonal climatic variability. The region is highly susceptible to the impacts of extreme weather events, including prolonged dry season droughts and intense wet season flooding.

The Kdei Stream serves as a crucial water resource for irrigation, domestic use, and ecosystem services within the commune. However, during periods of heavy rainfall, the stream frequently experiences rapid and high-volume flood flows. These fast-moving waters regularly breach existing, inadequate structures and banks, leading to significant destruction of agricultural land (paddy fields and cash crops), damage to vital community infrastructure (roads, bridges, homes), and disruption to the livelihoods of downstream populations. This recurring flood hazard diminishes community resilience and undermines development gains.

To address this specific hydraulic challenge and to enhance the controlled storage and distribution of water resources, WVI-C plans to implement a targeted structural intervention along the Kdei Stream. This intervention involves the construction of a dedicated spillway and associated hydraulic control structures.

Summary

Location: Kdei Stream, Ro Ang Commune, Sangkom Thmei District, Cambodia

Objectives of this Consultancy:

The primary objective of this consultancy assignment is to secure specialized, high-quality technical expertise to conduct all necessary preparatory work—from conceptual feasibility to detailed engineering—required for the successful and sustainable construction of the Kdei Stream spillway project.

Specifically, the consultant is required to achieve the following:

  1. Feasibility Confirmation: Conduct a comprehensive Feasibility Study to assess the technical viability, economic justification, environmental sustainability, and social acceptability of the proposed spillway and hydraulic structures at the designated site along Kdei Stream.
  2. Detailed Design Development: Develop a complete, robust, and climate-resilient Detailed Engineering Design package (including hydrologic/hydraulic analysis, geotechnical investigations, detailed drawings, technical specifications, and Bill of Quantities - BOQ).
  3. Tender Document Preparation: Prepare all necessary technical documentation required for the competitive procurement and contracting of construction works, ensuring compliance with national standards and best engineering practices.

This work ensures that the final structural intervention is optimized to safely manage peak flood discharges while maximizing controlled water storage, directly contributing to WVI-C's dual goals of enhancing community resilience against both flood and drought risks.

Scope of Work

The Consultant shall undertake a comprehensive assignment comprising a Feasibility Study, Detailed Engineering Design, and preparation of Tender Documents for the Kdei Stream spillway and associated hydraulic structures. The entire scope is divided into the following key phases:

  1. Phase I: Inception and Data Review
  2. Phase II: Topographic Survey and Site Investigation
  3. Phase III: Hydrological and Hydraulic Analysis
  4. Phase IV: Detailed Engineering Design and Documentation
  5. Phase V: Reporting and Presentation

  • Demonstrated experience in conducting topographic and hydrological surveys and converting field data into engineering drawings, design models, and BoQs.
  • Experience in preparing technical designs, construction drawings, detailed cost estimates, and technical specifications following Cambodia’s engineering standards and guidelines from MRD and MOWRAM.
  • Additional certification or professional training in GIS/Remote Sensing, Climate Resilience, or Environmental Assessment is an asset.
  • Proven experience working with government agencies (such as MOWRAM and MoE or INGOs) and community-based organizations in planning or implementing water-related projects.
  • Strong knowledge of Cambodia’s water policy framework, flood-prone area management, and climate adaptation strategies.
  • Experience using relevant tools such as AutoCAD Civil 3D, GIS software (ArcGIS/QGIS), and hydrological modeling software (HEC-RAS, SWAT, etc.).
  • Excellent analytical, facilitation, and report-writing skills in English (Khmer language proficiency is an advantage).
