Opportunities Visualization

Goal: The goal behind visualizing inquiries and opportunities into OpenLMIS is to have both:

A) An historical sense of the geographic and organizational interest in OpenLMIS

B) To inform activities to better target geographies and organizations in order to achieve further implementation of OpenLMIS

C) Increase transparency of opportunity-sharing to raise awareness of opportunities within the OpenLMIS Community and to facilitate responses on behalf of implementing partners.

Initial opportunities visualizations were created using the Tableau Public site (https://public.tableau.com/en-us/s/)

PSI Participants (see image)

VillageReach team discussed the re-architecture effort for OpenLMIS, the Product Roadmap, and community structure, and performed a quick demo of the requisition process in OpenLMIS v3.0.

PSI. Requests from countries for supply chain automation and management. Quite often they may not have the volume or capacity, but if OpenLMIS could be integrated with DHIS2, in some countries we have sales apps that are an add-on to DHIS2.

Good to have a sense of the overall product - requests of PSI are wide-ranging. Many more requests in using DHIS2 as an integration interface - many questions around sales, mobile health technology, Greenmash, QA, supervision, referral side of things. PSI is trying to get better at saying, this is what DHIS2 is good at, and this is where it's good at interfacing.

Liberia	O	Seeking implementation partner IntraHealth? Collaborative Support for Health (CSH)?	Liberia MOH USAID	Liberia MOH has officially selected OpenLMIS. Currently rolling out training on paper-based system - hoping to fast-track discussions around electronic LMIS system. OpenLMIS Global Team has held discussions with Liberia MOH HIS Director, IntraHealth, and CSH. They have shared Liberia HIS landscape doc. Next steps are for LMIS TWG to discuss and inform implementation considerations.	TBD	Interoperability with existing systems DHIS2 mHero OpenHIE MFL iHRIS
Senegal	O	Seeking implementing partner IntraHealth?	UNFPA Merck For Mothers USAID	Identified gap in data management where OpenLMIS could fit well and integrate with CommCare Supply (Dimagi) at the lower levels, and existing ERP at higher level. Transition of the informed push project to the national government. UNFPA advocating for OpenLMIS. Discussions have been held with the Senegal MOH and the COPRO LMIS TWG. Proposal for OpenLMIS implementation has been shared with the COPRO Committee (see below)	TBD	Integration with existing systems (DHIS2, CommCare Supply) Visibility into supply chain Reports Requisitions
Nepal	O			See RFI's section for full details on Nepal prospective implementation
Somalia	X	UNICEF UNFPA	UNICEF	Some interest from UNFPA and UNICEF Somalia for an electronic LMIS system. A consultant contacted the OpenLMIS Global team who prepared an implementation proposal. Did not hear anything following the submission of the proposal, but were recently contacted again by UNFPA and UNICEF staff asking for information (not clear if they ever saw the proposal?)	TBD

Project rollout planned for July 2017	July 2017 Software Rollout	Offline Requisitions Basic Reports DHIS2 Integration cStock Integration Data Migration from Supply Chain Manager Web-Based Dashboard
Mozambique	X	VillageReach	GAVI HSS	SELV is on the table for national expansion, and from the planning workshop this week, it has increased in support and likelihood. There are several considerations around that, tied to SELV being part of the distribution system, but a lot of interest in expanding it. Have received some requests from openlmis.org form from Mozambique government. Needs follow up.	TBD	Expansion of SELV for vaccine management to further geographies
Uganda	X	CHAI ThoughtWorks	TBD - DFID, BMGF	CHAI in partnership with ThoughtWorks working to develop a white label stock management app attached to OpenLMIS. Uganda has created a requirements document for this piece of work. Initial scope is more of a pilot - similar to CHAI Mozambique (which was developed just for Mozambique). They would test it, then look for separate scaling funding.	TBD	Mobile data collection Routine inventory collection and management

New Funding Opportunities

Funding Organization	Notes
Digital Health Initiative (DHI)	PATH presented on the DHI, through which new funding may potentially be available to fund OpenLMIS. The information was presented to the Governance committee, and a working group will be formed to develop budgets and roles/responsibilities within the OLMIS community to support the sustainability of the initiative.
Gates Foundation	Potential funding source for re-architecture effort of OpenLMIS. Proposal brief submitted to Gates in May, received conditional agreement from Gates in early June to contribute up to $2m, prioritizing Community Support and OpenLMIS Vaccine Update.
Gavi INFUSE	OpenLMIS core team has been invited to present at the Gavi INFUSE workshop as one of 18 potential innovations for vaccine management in late July, 2016. Potential funding source directly through Gavi, or OpenLMIS may be put in contact with private sector businesses and individuals interested in partnering or funding innovations. A3 Poster to be shared during presentation:
USAID BAA	Potential funding through USAID Digital Health and Interoperability Coordination BAA to augment the BMGF grant work already underway for the OpenLMIS re-architecture from v2.0 to v3.0. PATH likely to be the lead implementing partner (IP) for the BAA - up to agreement amongst IPs VillageReach on behalf of PATH, JSI, and VillageReach responded to USAID with a draft workplan, specifically covering the requested gap analysis, update to CRDM, and business case/statement of work.
