Situation Before Initiative Drugs, Surgical and Sutures were procured in decentralized mode There was manual monitoring of flow of Drugs, Surgical and Sutures from purchase to consumption at District and State Level Small staggered orders from 21 districts lead to non supply by the suppliers There was no tool to monitor and evaluate the demand, consumption, inspection, budget and other documentary evidences 28-11-2014 NIC-HrSC /NRHM Haryana 3
Situation Before Initiative No track of flow between procurement and consumption - leading to shortage /excess No control on critical issues like alert of expiry medicine, supply of medicine by vendor No quality control, drugs reached reordering level Require continuous monitoring to ensure that each transaction is accounted for and makes inventory records, a more cumbersome process for officials - time wasting & prone to errors 28-11-2014 NIC-HrSC /NRHM Haryana 4
Situation Before Initiative Not more than one person was able to access data at the same time unless they keep multiple copies of reports, which again was wastage of paper Due to excessive Paper work, often searching the relevant information was tedious exercise Errors in addition, transposition of figures, Incorrect recording of a transaction, Incomplete recording of a transaction. 28-11-2014 NIC-HrSC /NRHM Haryana 5
