New Operations Office, Belmopan

Reason Required

Presently Belize Water Services rent an office located at Garden City Plaza. Both operations and customer services staff are located in this office. However, the size of the office is too small to house personnel from both departments. Also, there is a need for permanent storage and tools rooms where operations can store their material and equipment securely. They use a container located at plant for storage purpose. Again there is a space constraint in the container too.</p> <p>The new office will have a store room, tools room, manager’s office, and supervisor’s office, foremen’s office, meeting room, cafeteria, bathroom, shower room and locker for employees. Building will be centrally air conditioned and thermally efficient. The new office will be built on the top of the newly built tank. This will help us to save 25% of the overall cost since we do not need to build a foundation.</p> <p>In addition, the new operations office will house BWS future server room for the country. Currently, the BWS server room is located in Belize City. Due to the low elevation of Belize City, during a hurricane threat flooding is most likely to occur. Therefore, the BWS server for the country will be relocated to the new Belmopan operations office in the future.
