cStock: A Digital Approach to Strengthening Community Supply Chains

cStock is a digital supply chain strengthening approach, implemented via multiple digital platforms. Community health workers (CHWs) use cStock to report their health supplies stock levels, and the cStock system calculates which supplies, and the quantity, that the CHWs need and sends an alert to the supervisor responsible for their resupply. CHWs receive a message when their commodities are packed for resupply distribution, so they don’t waste time and resources traveling when no products are available.
