The Government of Kenya has received financial assistance from the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) and the Spanish Trust Fund towards financing an eight year (2012-2020) Upper Tana Natural Resources Management Project.  The goal of the project is to contribute to rural poverty reduction in the Upper Tana River Catchment through increased sustainable food production and incomes and sustainable management of natural resources for provision of environmental services. The Project Lead Agency is the Ministry of Water and Irrigation.  The project area covers six counties namely: Muranga, Meru, TharakaNithi, Nyeri, Kirinyaga and Muranga. The area includes Mount Kenya and Aberdare National Parks.

The project intends to use part of the funds to procure pipes and fittings for implementation of Water Projects in the project area counties. Towards accomplishing its objectives the Upper Tana Natural Resources Management Project (UTaNRMP) now invites sealed tenders from eligible and qualified tenderers for SUPPLY AND DELIVERY OF PIPES AND FITINGS FOR Water Projects in the project area counties as per specifications in the specific tender documents.
