Tender Notice
Organisation:
The Government of the Virgin Islands, through the Ministry of Health and Social Development, is inviting tenders from suitably qualified and reputable local companies for the management and maintenance of the North Sound Public Cemetery in Virgin Gorda.
This initiative forms part of the Government’s ongoing commitment to preserving public burial grounds and ensuring that these sacred spaces are maintained with dignity, order and respect for residents and visitors alike.

The engagement will be for a two-year period, and tenderers are required to visit the site in advance to assess existing conditions and determine the resources needed to carry out the services effectively.
Interested tenderers must submit a complete tender package, including a financial proposal, evidence of experience on similar projects, and details of key personnel. All submissions must also be accompanied by valid Certificates of Good Standing from the Social Security Board, National Health Insurance, and the Inland Revenue Department, as well as a valid trade or business licence.
