Panama Canal amends prequalification document for optimised water management system

The Panama Canal has amended the prequalification document for a tender for the engineering, design and construction of an optimised water management system.

The decision to amend the document was made after the Canal received more than 250 potential bidder inquiries following the opening of the prequalification period on September 7, 2020.

This tender is the first component of a programme that, as a whole, will maintain the objective of managing water resources in an integrated manner to provide an adequate water supply for both Canal operations and local consumption for the next 50 years.
