How Can Assist?

 

Discussion

Currently, we are not planning on setting up the Global instance for national-level requisitions.

Brandon - Do we know if countries will want to use OpenLMIS for this? The previous selling point of funneling orders into Wambo and utilizing Global Funds funds is no longer in the discussion.

Gaurav - Replacing Excel might be motivation enough.

Should we reuse existing instances?

  • Christine - Existing implementations are already configured which does have some benefits

Training/Support

  • CHAI Country teams can help with this

  • Tiered support

    • CHAI Country Team

    • CHAI/VR Team to triage and forward to appropriate group
