Česká rozvojová agentura needs server infrastructure for the SLIM project in Zambia, including supply, installation, and commissioning, over a period of 4 months, with a maximum total value of 365,000 USD. The delivery comprises two server environments: a centralized GIS server environment at the National Remote Sensing Centre (NRSC) for computationally intensive satellite data operations and GIS services, and an operational open-source GIS server environment for the Forestry Department (FD) to support internal forestry data management and web mapping applications. The solution requires two physical servers for the NRSC (one performance server and one GIS server), a disk array, and a firewall, and for the FD, one physical server, a disk array, a UPS, a firewall, and a new rack cabinet. Offers will be evaluated based on price (80%) and warranty (20%), with a minimum warranty period of 24 months required.

About the bid

This public contract (VZ) will be implemented as part of the SLIM (Sustainable Landscape through Integrated Management) Project, which is being implemented by the Czech Development Agency from October 2023 to September 2027 and co-financed by the European Union and Sweden. Its aim is to introduce an integrated landscape management (ILM) approach and contribute to increasing the resilience of ecosystems and preserving biodiversity in Zambia using freely accessible satellite data in areas such as forestry, agriculture, water management, and environmental protection, including predicting and mitigating the destructive effects of natural disasters. This contract will specifically contribute to the implementation of the SLIM project activity entitled "Provision of adequate technological capacities, tools, data access, and geospatial data storage infrastructure for the crucial data domains." The subject of this contract is the supply, installation, and commissioning of server infrastructure required to support the SLIM project in Zambia. The contract will deliver two server environments, including related installation, configuration, baseline security settings, system testing, technical training, and final commissioning. The first part of the delivery covers a centralized GIS server environment installed at the National Remote Sensing Centre (NRSC). This environment consists of two physical servers, where one performance server is used for computationally intensive satellite data operations and one GIS server hosts virtual machines for ArcGIS Enterprise components and a PostgreSQL/PostGIS enterprise database. The solution also includes a disk array for backups and file storage, and a firewall, serving as a shared spatial data repository providing access, web services, and applications to multiple SLIM project stakeholders. The second part of the delivery covers an operational open-source GIS server environment for the Forestry Department (FD). This environment consists of one physical server hosting two virtual machines for database and web application services, a disk array, a UPS, a firewall, and a new rack cabinet. It will support internal forestry data management, web mapping applications, and future integration with field data collection systems. The subject matter of this contract is described in more detail in Annex No. 1 – "Supply Specification".
