In Progress

Rather than a maturity model framework, we intend to document capabilities that systems can have for connections between health and supply chain.

 

  • Product identification
    • Has a definition of a Commodity/Product
    • Differentiates between Commodity/Product and Items
    • Has a definition of a Lot/Batch
    • Defines Lot/Batch in terms of Items
    • Items may have GTIN
    • Items define which Commodity/Product systems they belong to
    • Items may belong to many Commodity/Product systems
    • Has a definition for Item serial #
    • Orderable Commodities/Products define just enough attributes in addition to the Commodity classification that give them use in two parties carrying out a re-supply request and fulfillment cycle.  This allows a store that needs more of a commodity, to order that commodity, and gives the fulfilling store choice in which items will be used to fulfill for that ordered commodity.
  • Product Alignment
    • Master data follows standard definitions (e.g. GS1 GDD)
    • Classification of Item into Commodity/Product
    • Fulfills For and Fulfilled By relationships
  • Inventory
    • Transactions / movements are part of a ledger (as credits / debits)
    • Stock events/movements may be recorded
      • By Location (Facility, Store room, Refrigerator, etc)
      • By source & destination Location
      • By Program - you know how many bandages you have accepted by the Malaria program as opposed to how many were accepted by the EPI program
      • By Commodity
      • By Item
        • By Lot
        • With Serial #
      • By expiration date (without knowing Lot)
      • By date the physical event occurred
      • By date-time of entering record into system
      • Define Stock Adjustment Reasons for an event occurring (e.g. stock was received, stock was lost due to cold chain failure, etc)
      • Stock Adjustment Reasons may be grouped into larger semantics (e.g. these 3 debit reasons together define Open Vial Wastage, and these other two define Closed Vial Wastage).
    • Stock on Hand may be reported:
      • By Commodity / Product
      • By Item
        • By Lot
      • In aggregate for Commodity with all Items
      • As of a date
      • As of a date as reported by the system on a historical date-time
  • Location Alignment
    • Locations are nest-able (a storeroom within a building of a hospital)
    • Locations may designate an Organization responsible
    • Locations may be a part of one or more administrative areas (supervision structure, supply line, health catchment, geopolitical, etc)
    • Location also identifiable by GS1's GLN (e.g. through OID)
  • Resupply
    • Order / Purchase Order
    • Invoice
    • Shipping notice (e.g. ASN, GS1 Despatch Advice)
    • Receiving notice (e.g. POD, Receive Advice)
    • Shipment identifier (e.g. GS1 SSCC)
    • Transport identifier (e.g. GS1 )
  • No labels
