What does it cost?

OpenLMIS is open source software, which means it is non-proprietary and the code is publicly available for free download and use. OpenLMIS can be used for other types of logistics management at a nation-wide scale, and not just for medical commodities.

Implementing any software solution requires funding for initial configuration, customization, user training, and ongoing support. The costs for implementing OpenLMIS vary greatly based on scale and the degree of customization needed.

Current implementation costs have ranged from:

  • $85,000 for a regional implementation for a single program (i.e., vaccines only) with minimal customization
  • $450,000 for a countrywide implementation for vaccine management only
  • $2 million approximately for all programs, products and facilities at a national scale with substantial customization needs

These costs are examples only—each implementation budget will be based on individual project/country requirements.

Country-level implementations of OpenLMIS are usually conducted by implementing partners – international NGOs or technology providers – as part of multi-year engagements, and are often funded, at least in part, by international donor agencies who are investing in efficient health supply chains.

We are eager to help OpenLMIS adoption in new geographies and sectors. Please inquire with the OpenLMIS Community Manager to discuss your needs and ideas.

How do I get started?

General checklist and project considerations for a new implementation of OpenLMIS. Once OpenLMIS has been selected as the electronic LMIS of choice, these points cover the basic steps for starting a new implementation.

  • Demo
  • OpenLMIS community develops proposal to support the implementation, including budget, timeline, etc.
  • Approval of proposal by MOH and implementing partner
  • Site Visit (Suggested visit to a current implementation. May occur before acceptance of proposal to determine feasibility)
  • Requirements gathering (by OpenLMIS Global Team or other selected partner)
  • Identification of implementing partner and software development partner (Simultaneous with requirements gathering)
  • Conduct implementation, including additional points on software development, system configuration, testing, and training
  • Engage with OpenLMIS Community to determine how customizations will be contributed back to OpenLMIS
