The USAID Indonesia Urban Water, Sanitation and Hygiene, Penyehatan
Lingkungan Untuk Semua (IUWASH PLUS) program is a five-and-a-half-year
initiative designed to assist the Government of Indonesia (GOI) in
increasing access to water supply and sanitation services as well as
improving key hygiene behaviors among urban poor and vulnerable
populations. USAID IUWASH PLUS works with governmental agencies, the
private sector, NGOs, communities and others to achieve the following "high
level" results:
1. An increase of 1,100,000 people in urban areas with access to improved
water supply service quality, of which at least 500,000 are from the
poorest 40% of the population (also referred to as the “Bottom 40%” or
“B40”), vulnerable groups or Indonesia’s eastern provinces; and
2. An increase of 500,000 people in urban areas with access to safely
managed sanitation.
To ensure that improvements in access to WASH services are sustained, USAID
IUWASH PLUS is guided by a development hypothesis that focuses on
strengthening service delivery systems, so they can more effectively reach
the poorest and most vulnerable segments of the population. In order to
achieve this at scale, the program undertakes activities through four
interrelated components, including: 1) improving household WASH services;
2) strengthening city WASH institutional performance; 3) strengthening the
WASH financing environment; and 4) advancing national WASH advocacy,
coordination and communication. In support of these components, USAID
IUWASH PLUS also implements a Local Sustainability and Innovation Component
(LSIC) that is designed to stimulate WASH innovations that strengthen
community, private sector and government WASH service provision.
The Swiss State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO) acting through the
United States Agency for International Development (USAID) share the mutual
goal of improving performance of water utilities to increase access to
clean water in Indonesia, particularly to address two technical challenges
that are especially impactful: (1) high rates of non-revenue water (NRW);
and (2) poor energy efficiency (EE). To provide a comprehensive and
measurable NRW reduction and EE improvement in Indonesia, SECO agreed to
co-finance USAID for a three-year technical assistance program, implemented
under the current USAID IUWASH PLUS program with seven PDAMs in two
regions, i.e. West Java and Central Java provinces.
To achieve these outcomes IUWASH-PLUS need high caliber candidates to fill
the position of:
*Consultant for Web GIS Mapping Application for Drinking Water Distribution
Networks in Jakarta (Job CODE: FP ICA/WGISM_JKT)*
*OBJECTIVE*
The purpose of developing the Web GIS Mapping Water Distribution Network
application is to support the non-revenue water (NRW) reduction program,
particularly by displaying spatial data on pipelines, district meter area
(DMA) and customer locations. This application can later be equipped with a
display of the locations of water pressure and discharge sensor points
along with their reading data, making it easier for PDAMs to manage water
loss caused by pipe leaks. Digitally, the Web GIS Mapping Drinking Water
Distribution Networks application will help the process of finding the
location of leaks and the causes of lack of water pressure, the handling of
distribution problems in the field will be carried out more quickly,
efficiently, effectively and transparently, in the end it will help reduce
NRW water and increase Local Government income especially from drinking
water services to the community. On the other hand, this application will
also be able to assist PDAMs in the process of implementing new connection
services, disconnection actions and plans for developing service coverage
areas.
*SCOPE OF WORKS*Web GIS Mapping Drinking Water Distribution Network
application is a system designed for special needs and purposes cannot be
purchased directly because it is not available in the market, so it
requires special development by application developers. IUWASH PLUS - SECO
as an application buyer will place an order for this system through the
Individual Consultant Assignment (ICA) mechanism to individual Application
Developers.
Application developers that provide the system will be mandated to design,
develop, test it, until it is installed on the server and operated by the
PDAMs assisted by IUWASH PLUS - SECO in the NRW reduction program. Before
being distributed to assisted PDAMs, this application will be jointly
developed and tested in two assisted PDAMs, one in the WJDT Regional and
one in the CJRO Regional, PDAM partners on the development of application
will be determined when the Application Developer Consultant has been
selected. The application developer consultant will also have to train PDAM
& IUWASH PLUS - SECO staffs on the installation and operational procedures
for this application.
The minimum specifications for the application are as follows:
- Application must be developed with an open source concept, so that it
is easy if one day it will be improved as needed.
- The platform of the application must be web-based and installed on the
PDAM server, so that it can be operated with a web browser application
(Chrome, FireFox, Opera, etc.) on every computer connected to the server
(LAN, Internet).
- The application must be able to display spatial data of drinking water
supply system (SPAM) on the base map, including the location of the object
and its data attributes, including: water supply facility location points,
pipeline networks and it's accessories locations, customer point locations,
water pressure sensors and water meter locations, where the spatial data
has been developed by PDAM in the GIS application.
- Applications able to provide at least 2 options of basic map, among
others are: Google Maps, Open street map or Mapbox.
- The application has several features, including; search features,
display data attributes, draw line and point vector objects on the screen
without changing the original data and calculate the length of the drawn
line, generate earth coordinate values from the drawn points and save the
screen display into image format (jpg, bmp, etc).
- Application has user level management features; administrators,
operators, supervisors and guests with several different levels of access
rights.
- The application is able to read pressure and discharge sensor data
through the sharing API of the sensor reading system, and can display
numbers and or graphs.
- The application has facilities for downloading and backing up data
that only administrators can run
*Minimum Required Qualifications and Experiences*
To ensure the delivery of the output: the Web GIS Mapping Jaringan
Distribusi Air Minum, Application, Application Developer has the following
qualifications:
a. IT educatonal background, specially in computer programming
b. Minimum 5 years experience in the development of General computer
application
