Technical Report: Stock Visibility System Technical Brief

The Stock Visibility System (SVS) is a web-based management tool with a mobile application that is used at public primary health care (PHC) clinics to capture and monitor medicine availability. In South Africa, where outdated and fragmented paper-based systems have made it difficult for supply chain managers to accurately forecast and avoid stockouts of life-saving medicines, SVS supports improved access to medicines and contributes to reducing the cost of health care delivery by ensuring that the supply of medicines in public health facilities meets demand.
