Electronic vaccine intelligence network ensured essential immunisation services

• Electronic vaccine intelligence network (eVIN) is an indigenously developed technological solution aimed at strengthening universal immunization by providing real-time information on vaccine stocks and flows.

It combines:

• Technology: to facilitate evidence-based decision-making.
• Governance: to ensure efficient vaccine logistics management.
• Human Resources: to empower state cold chain network by capacity building of government cold chain handlers;
• eVIN helps to create a big data architecture that generates actionable analytics encouraging data-driven decision-making and consumption-based planning leading to cost savings.
• It also provides the potential to be leveraged for any new vaccine.
• At present, eVIN has reached 32 States and UTs (Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Chandigarh, Ladakh and Sikkim are remaining).
• At present, 23,507 cold chain points across 22 States and 2 UTs routinely use eVIN Vaccine availability at all times has increased to 99% in most health centres.
• Presently, many states are using the eVIN application with 100% adherence rate to track State-specific Covid-19 material supplies, ensure availability and raise alerts in case of shortage of 81 essential drugs and equipment.
