Reactions/Q&A | IQVIA-OpenLMIS Concept 6 Nov 2019.pdf | Summary of Feedback about IQVIA from Meeting Participants: -How would a commercial and core version of OpenLMIS relate to eachother? Would one feed the other? Commercial version fund core?-Strong -IQVIA sees the idea of maintaining 2 products risky- one could 'cannibalize' the other; so they are open to maintaining one open source product -We agree on a desire to continue supporting implementations; IQVIA seems open to this -''It is up to us to guide the approach and determine what is important to us'' -Need ''We need to find a way to manage data concerns re: privacy & data ownership'' -''They have relatively high market penetration, geographic presence & resources to mobilize'' |

| Day 2 | Identification of Community Priorities Facilitator: Rebecca | No matter what future path is chosen, we recognize that there will be a need to change from the status quo. This small group exercise was designed to create consensus around what the community thinks is most important to retain, versus aspects that are negotiable. Clarification on these points this will be important when we engage in negotiations with any future partner | Process for this session: 4 small groups listed priority topics that they felt were important to retain. Then the large group went around to the different flipcharts and placed colored votes to indicate which points they agree or disagree with. Green votes indicate agree, yellow is tentative, and red indicated disagree | Feedback from this session is divided into 4 topical groups. The main takeaway points with community consensus (indicated by number of green votes) are listed below:
