Description of Session
OpenLMIS is an open source electronic logistics management information system (LMIS) built to manage health commodity supply chains in low- and middle-income countries. OpenLMIS is a growing initiative to provide a full-feature electronic LMIS solution to Ministries of Health and other global partners and stakeholders to increase supply chain efficiency and data visibility. The initiative’s philosophy of promoting inclusive open-source principles, interoperability, and country ownership have guided the initiative to be recognized as a certified Global Good (*as defined by Digital Square) that is well-poised to continue transforming national supply chains around the globe. OpenLMIS has released all-new functionality within the latest release, including support for the unique needs of vaccine supply chains and health commodity kits. In addition, the latest version has released an all new analytics and big data warehouse infrastructure to support fast queries and compelling data visualizations within the system. The OpenLMIS poster will explain the background of the initiative, the nature of the OpenLMIS Community, global standards supported by the software, integrations with OpenSRP/DHIS2, the current available functionality and all-new features.
