How do professionals and countries sustain data use beyond initial implementation?

As countries continue to invest in strengthening health supply chains, conversations around scale-up, ownership, sustainability, and integration into routine systems are important.

Join inSupply Health and the International Association of Public Health Logisticians for a webinar exploring country experiences from Kenya, Tanzania, and Ethiopia on implementing the IMPACTT and pPMT approaches.

Behind every system, framework, and strategy are people, health workers, partners, and communities.

We have been working on a more intentional way of sharing our work so that it better reflects not just what we do, but the impact it enables.

Tomorrow, we unveil something new.

[inSupply Health @inSupplyHealth]

The way we work in health supply systems is evolving faster, becoming more interconnected, and increasingly data-driven.

As our work grows, so does the need to better organise, communicate, and share it in a way that reflects that reality.

This marks the beginning of that shift at inSupply.

In Tanga, when the IMPACT baseline assessment revealed high overstocks and commodities being ordered without demand, it presented an opportunity to improve supply chain management. Through coordinated redistribution and strengthened ordering practices, facilities translated insight into measurable improvement.

Across three consecutive reporting periods, 9 of 10 supported facilities reduced overstock levels. All ten facilities maintained less than 3% percent of no-demand-but-ordered commodities, fully aligning with national standards.

IMPACT Teams in Tanzania continue to demonstrate that sustainable system strengthening is built through discipline to use information effectively, make timely adjustments, and institutionalize performance improvement.

Last week (16–20 February 2026), our team joined County and Sub-County Pharmacists, facility pharmacists, and healthcare providers across all 12 sub-counties in Kakamega County for a family planning (FP) support supervision and redistribution exercise.

Using real-time commodity data, we mobilized stock from overstocked facilities to those facing low stock or stockouts, while reviewing commodity management practices, reporting processes, and facility stock status.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗪𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗲𝗱

🟩Access to family planning is shaped by more than commodity availability. Low IUD uptake highlighted gaps in provider confidence, while DMPA-IM resupply challenges may influence shifts toward DMPA-SC, illustrating how supply dynamics can shape method trends.

🟩In remote facilities, self-injection remains a behaviour change journey, with clients still preferring provider-administered services despite home doses being available. At the same time, low order fill rates are forcing facilities to borrow stock, creating inventory complexities and potential data distortions.

🟩While data quality is largely strong, discrepancies in some facilities reinforced the importance of regular supportive supervision and peer learning.

In collaboration with the county, we continue to strengthen supply chains, provider capacity, trust in self-care, inventory management systems, and data use to promote access to a wide range of high-quality Family Planning commodities at the service delivery point.

This week, inSupply Health is supporting the Curriculum Development for 5 Short Courses in Health Supply Chain Management (HSCM) funded by the Kühne Foundation Tanzania to strengthen and professionalize the health supply chain workforce.

inSupply Health is providing technical assistance to develop the curriculum and showcase our health supply chain micro-modules, designed using the Human-Centered Design (HCD) approach.

The engagement brings together stakeholders including Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciences (MUHAS) lecturers, the Pharmacy Council, healthcare workers, the Pharmaceutical Society of Tanzania (PST), and partners from the Kühne Foundation.

Strengthening skills and building capacity remain a key focus in transforming health supply chains and improving system performance.

When numbers save lives.

For years, forecasting family planning commodities in Kenya meant long hours, fragmented data, and manual processes that too often resulted in stock-outs or costly overstocks directly affecting women’s access to the methods they choose.

In partnership with the Ministry of Health, inSupply Health supported Kenya’s National FP forecasting process, embedding AI to make it faster, more transparent, and far more accurate. Using 60 months of facility-level data from over 10,000 facilities, forecasts that once took days are now generated in minutes and reflect real demand down to the facility level.

Last week, we wrapped up our final monitoring visit for the year across all facility IMPACT Teams in Tanga City Council.

𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗛𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀

All 10 health facilities demonstrated significant improvements in the quality of their consumption data. This collective effort contributed to the Tanga City Council being recognized by MSD for outstanding data quality, a milestone that reflects commitment, collaboration, and consistency at every level.

For two consecutive quarters, Makorora HC has successfully maintained a less than 5% no demand meeting the national target and beyond.

These achievements reaffirm the power of data-driven decision-making and highlight how empowering facility-level teams can create meaningful, system-wide impact. When health workers are equipped with the right skills and tools, the entire supply chain becomes stronger, more efficient, and more responsive to community needs.

A big thank you to all facility IMPACT teams and Tanga City Council leadership who continue to champion and support facility-level IMPACT Teams.

As part of our annual volunteer day, the Tanzania team, in collaboration with @JSIhealth colleagues, visited the Children’s Cancer Ward at Muhimbili National Hospital.

During the visit, the team engaged with patients, their families, health workers, and hospital management, taking time to learn more about the facility, the challenges they face, and to support the great job they are doing.

The activities of the day allowed us to make a difference and put a smile on the lives of the communities we serve, and strengthen the partnerships that help us deliver tangible, positive outcomes. #VolunteerDay2025

inSupply Health participated in the FP2030 Documentation Workshop, led by the National Council for Population and Development (@NCPD_Kenya). Our team contributed to the development of stories for the upcoming edition of NEST Magazine, highlighting insights from our work on Advanced Family Planning in Pharmacies and the quantification of family planning commodities.

High-quality documentation plays a critical role in informing decision-making and supporting progress toward Kenya’s FP2030 commitments. We appreciate NCPD for convening this collaborative effort and look forward to the publication of the stories.

Today, we participated in our annual Volunteer Day, which we always look forward to as a team. This year, we spent the day at an elderly home, interacting with the residents and participating in various activities.

It was a meaningful opportunity to offer support and be present in a space that often goes unseen. We are grateful for the chance to contribute, spend time with the residents, and strengthen our commitment to community service.

Next week, we’ll be at the Global Digital Forum 2025!

It’s always interesting to see how quickly the digital health sector is evolving, and this year, AI will clearly take centre stage. AI is no longer just a buzzword, but the real questions are: What’s working? What’s hype? How do we actually leverage these tools to address real problems?

#GDHF2025 is where those practical and meaningful conversations will take place, what’s effective, what’s not, and what we need to rethink entirely.

We’re looking forward to listening, learning, challenging our assumptions, and connecting with the people shaping the next chapter of digital health.
