CUSTOMER
FIT (Freight in time) Uganda and UPS via GAVI, Global Alliance For Vaccine and Immunization.
CHALLENGES
Uganda’s public health system used paper-based forms for supply chain operations. This provided little visibility into the dispersed health network and hence no way to prevent stock outs. Uncertainty in last-mile transport forced health workers to pick-up vaccine stock from upstream warehouses in cold-boxes. This increased the risk to vaccine potency and made the replenishment process highly inefficient.
SOLUTION
Logistimo’s entire product suite - supply chain, cold chain & transport management - has been deployed in Uganda for end-to-end management of health commodities.
VALUE-ADD
Since the introduction of Logistimo, warehouse managers have been able to streamline replenishment cycles and reduce costs. Scheduling and optimization of delivery routes in tandem with order cycles has ushered in operational efficiency.

Consistent >90% availability has been critical to the success of the EPI programme
