Cell phone and internet based inventory management tool. Remote users can enter demands (patients) and supplies using a basic cell phone. This information is available for review at varying levels using a standard internet browser. Inventory management users can make re-supply decisions on accurate, current data.

System is NOT SMS-based, and therefore can handle many commodities with built-in data quality. The software can be used wherever there is cell phone service (for data entry) and internet service (for data management).
