Logistic Management Information Systems (LoMIS)

Logistic Management Information Systems (LoMIS) is a suite  of offline-capable mobile and web applications “LoMIS Stock” and “LoMIS Deliver” which address challenges with supply/distribution of health commodities to last-mile health facilities.

The LoMIS Suite  applications provide critical solutions to ensure availability of health commodity, effective vaccine management, and enable broader health system policy decisions through the use of real data for insight and execution at the community, state and national level.

LoMIS is a technology-based solution that enables last mile health-workers and other actors in the logistic chain to send and receive health commodity information to ensure health facilities are appropriately stocked and have a supporting delivery mechanism.

eHA has developed the software to offer as a service to governments, other development partners, private sector organization and to use internally by  its operations team.

The solution was first deployed in Kano state in 2014.

The solution includes:

• Offline, SMS capable mobile applications installed on Android phones and tablets for health workers (who manage health commodity stock) and delivery personnel (who manage health commodity deliveries).

• Web application dashboards that aggregate stock levels, utilizations and quantities delivered to health facilities, including those in the most remote and hard to reach areas.
