To strengthen the supportive supervision and program related decisions emanating thereof, MoHFW envisaged to develop a software to capture the findings of supportive supervision visits to the health facilities, appropriate escalation of assigned actions to ensure timely mitigation and proposed plan of action.

The MoHFW, supported by BMGF, entrusted JSI to develop a software with the above mention objectives. In the first phase, the software was developed and demonstrated successfully before the top leadership of the MoHFW.

In another efforts Government of Assam supported by Unicef has developed an android based application, and the application also meets various objectives of supportive supervision activity.

Also, Government of Bihar, supported by CARE ( BMGF’s grantee) has developed a supportive supervision software. A detailed and comprehensive comparison is made in the subsequent section.
