Digital solution for monitoring the stocks and prognosis of personal protective means

This compendium, prepared by the Division for Public Institutions and Digital Government (DPIDG) of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA), aims to capture emerging trends in digital responses of UN Member States against the COVID-19 pandemic along with other digital government initiatives and provide a preliminary analysis of their main features. These cases are shared for exchange of information so that Member States can learn from each other and possibly create new partnerships.

The state launches a digital solution for monitoring the stocks and prognosis of personal protective means, created during the hackathon The Global Hack, which will simplify and make more comprehensive, the collection of information. The new platform simplifies the collection of data on personal protective means, inventories, needs and prognosis. The system allows for the user-friendly collection of data throughout Estonia and provides clear and compact, visualised results. This helps to make fast decisions, concerning distribution plans, as well as new procurements.
