In late April, health workers gathered in Livingstone, Zambia, for a
two-week training on the new electronic Logistics Management
Information System (eLMIS), in preparation for its deployment in
health facilities nationwide. The eLMIS is a new software that will
transform Zambia’s health service and enhance the management of health
commodities by transitioning from a paper-based system of data
management to an electronic format. This new format, an implementation
of the OpenLMIS open source platform, is a revolutionary and
cost-effective system that will foster better, faster, and more
accurate reporting of supply chain data, reduce stockouts of health
commodities, and ultimately provide increased access to medicines to
improve health outcomes. The USAID | DELIVER PROJECT and Supply Chain
Management System (SCMS) are among the partners supporting this
initiative. Learn more at http://bit.ly/1rcoGl9
