Hiramandalam Water Supply Tender, Srikakulam Andhra Pradesh (Rs837.50 Cr)

Srikakulam district has a Rs837.50 crore multi-village water supply scheme out to tender, drawing Phase-1 supply from Hiramandalam Reservoir for the Tekkali and Narasannapeta constituencies, closing 18 August 2026.

Inside the Hiramandalam water supply tender

Hiramandalam Reservoir sits on the Vamsadhara system in northern Andhra Pradesh, and this is the first phase of drawing bulk supply from it for two constituencies at once. A scheme structured this way carries a common headworks and transmission spine, then splits into separate distribution networks for each constituency. The portal lists an estimated contract value of Rs837.50 crore against an NIT headline of Rs1,204.00 crore.

The tender sits with the Superintending Engineer, PRED RWS Srikakulam, under Chief Engineer-I at Vijayawada, and carries tender notice no. 07/2026-27 dated 29 July 2026.

Who should be bidding

The main contract needs an EPC contractor comfortable with reservoir intake work, a treatment plant and long transmission mains in one package. What follows the award is a long list of smaller jobs across two constituencies, and those are where local firms and machine owners in Srikakulam get their share: trenching, crossings, chambers, overhead and ground-level service reservoirs, and reinstatement.

Plant this scheme will absorb

Headworks and intake structures call for excavators, cranes and concrete plant. The transmission and distribution legs pull in excavators for trenching, backhoe loaders where the alignment runs through habitations, compactors on backfill and restored road surface, and tippers moving spoil and bedding material. On any scheme running this far across a district, dewatering sets and shoring gear tend to cost more than contractors allow for at bid stage, so price them off the actual ground conditions in the tender document.
