Official Title
IslandPlas Project - Plastic Waste Crushing and Pelletizing Machines for Zanzibar
Overview
IUCN Eastern and Southern Africa Regional Office (ESARO) is procuring plastic waste crushing and pelletizing machines for installation in Zanzibar under the IslandPlas project, an IUCN initiative tackling plastic pollution in island ecosystems across the Western Indian Ocean and the West Africa coast. The machines will be installed at a community-managed plastic recycling facility and will enable local cooperatives to convert collected post-consumer plastic waste into pellets that can be sold to downstream manufacturers, creating a circular economy revenue stream and reducing plastic leakage into the marine environment. Bidders should expect to deliver to Zanzibar including all import, freight, installation and commissioning logistics. The estimated contract value is below USD 40,000 with a one-month implementation period.

Supply and delivery of plastic pelletizing machines per specifications. On-site installation, commissioning and functional testing. Operator training for local cooperative members and IUCN staff. Provision of operating manuals (English and Swahili where possible) and basic maintenance toolkits. Warranty for the equipment.

Completed and signed IUCN Declaration of Undertaking (Attachment 2a for companies, 2b for self-employed). Quotation in the IUCN RFQ template (Excel format provided in tender package). Compliance with the IUCN Statement of Requirements specifications. Local installation/training presence or partnership in Tanzania is highly desirable.
Evaluation Criteria
IUCN standard RFQ evaluation: mandatory compliance check (declaration, completed RFQ template, specifications), technical compliance with the Statement of Requirements (acceptance is pass/fail per specification line), then financial comparison.
