HISP UiO is happy to announce the release of the Stock Data toolkit! DHIS2 provides a simple, user-friendly application for managing stocks and equipment at the facility or community level that can be seamlessly integrated with full-scale, upstream national logistics management information systems (eLMIS). Resources in the Health Data Toolkit are designed to make it easier to implement DHIS2-based logistics systems.
The aggregate stock data configuration has been packaged and included as part of the health data toolkit. This will facilitate easy startup of stock data collection at the health facility level by including recommended metadata with medicines for a variety of health programs as a cross-cutting stock management tool that provides visibility at the lowest level of the supply chain. It can be implemented for an individual program and scaled up to include others as needed. Recommended stock dashboards have also been developed to provide a starting point for supply chain analytics, including visualizations on stock availability, stockout count, stock coverage time, and stock reports. This dashboard can be integrated as part of a holistic HMIS.
You can find links to more information and the downloadable metadata package on the DHIS2 Health Data Toolkit webpage.
