Our Delivery Schedule System (DSS) is a modern digital platform designed to strengthen the coordination, transparency, and efficiency of health commodities distribution across the state.
Built to support every level of the healthcare supply chain from the Central Medical Store to Primary Health Care facilities, the system ensures that essential medicines, vaccines, consumables, and medical equipment are delivered accurately, on time, and with full accountability as procured from the agency
PURPOSE OF THE SYSTEM
The Delivery Schedule System was developed to address long-standing challenges in health supply distribution, such as delivery delays, stockouts, poor tracking, and weak documentation.
We believe by digitizing scheduling and monitoring of all deliveries, the system enhances the state’s ability to plan, distribute, and sustain essential health commodities where they are needed most.
KEY FEATURES
- Automated Delivery Scheduling
The DSS allows the Agency to create structured delivery routes and assign delivery dates, vehicles, and drivers. This eliminates guesswork and ensures all client facilities know when and what they are expecting.
- Facility-Based Delivery Planning
Each health facility that is patronizing us in Adamawa State receives customized delivery schedules based on:
- Consumption patterns
- Facility-level stock status
- Emergency requests
- Routine supply cycles
This ensures timely replenishment of vital health commodities.
- Real-Time Tracking and Status Updates
The system provides up-to-date information on each delivery, including:
- Pending
- Scheduled
- In transit
- Delivered
- Partially delivered
This transparency strengthens monitoring and ensures accountability.
- Digital Confirmation and Documentation
Upon delivery, facility officers can digitally:
- Confirm items received
- Upload delivery notes
- Report discrepancies
- Record batch numbers and expiry dates
This improves record accuracy and reduces paperwork.
- Alerts and Notifications
The system automatically sends:
