The Virgin Islands Recovery and Development Agency (RDA), set to transition into the Virgin Islands Development Agency (VIDA), is pleased to announce three major procurement opportunities for release in December 2025.

These opportunities reaffirm the RDA’s commitment to the Government of the Virgin Islands to enhance public infrastructure, promote sustainable economic development and elevate the quality of life for all.

First, the BVI Health Services Authority (BVIHSA) Clinic Lobby Repairs to the Major Peebles Wing will focus on upgrading and refurbishing the clinic lobby to enhance patient comfort, improve patient flow and increase accessibility.  Key to this refurbishment is the installation of a new elevator for greater mobility access and better service delivery.  

Second, the BVIHSA Hospital and Annex Roof Repairs will strengthen the resiliency and safety of the healthcare facilities by addressing structural roof repairs on the Dr. D. Orlando Smith Hospital and the Annex. 

Third, the Omar Hodge Fishers’ Wharf  Design Consultancy will develop the conceptual and detailed designs for an efficient Fisheries Landing Site at the Omar Hodge Fisherman’s Wharf and Park in Baugher’s Bay, Tortola.  The project will support the growth of the local fisheries sector through improved infrastructure for landing, processing, and marketing of fish with proper sanitation and data collection facilities. It also supports growth of the Blue Economy by promoting coastal livelihoods, local food production and maritime activity.

Chief Executive Officer at the RDA Mr. Anthony McMaster stated that these upcoming procurement opportunities demonstrate the Agency’s ongoing commitment to delivering development with integrity, accountability, and transparency.

“As we transition from recovery to development, our procurement activities remain focused on strengthening essential public services. These projects reinforce the Government’s investment in health and fisheries infrastructure while creating opportunities for qualified firms to contribute their expertise to national development.”

The RDA encourages all local qualified firms to participate. Tender documents and submission guidelines will be published on the Agency’s website at BVIRecovery.vg and on official communication channels as each procurement is officially released.
