During the past few days, the Mexican government has issued international public tenders for the award of two major public private partnership (PPP) water projects in Los Cabos, Baja California Sur.
First, the Los Cabos Municipal Water and Sanitation Agency (Organismo Operador Municipal del Sistema de Agua Potable, Alcantarillado y Saneamiento de Los Cabos, OOMSAPAS) has called an international public tender to award a PPP to develop a new desalination plant in the area.
The 25-year project aims to supply drinking water to the wider Los Cabos area, and includes the design, construction, equipment, operation and maintenance of a 250 litres per second (LPS) desalination plant in Los Cabos, Baja California Sur.
While not included in the official bid call documents, public sources suggest that up to 49-percent of the total investment amount will be guaranteed by a Mexican development bank. The winning bidder will provide the remainder.
