Short description

Norwegian Red Cross (NorCross) is a member of the world-wide Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement (RCM), our international work is focused on humanitarian preparedness and response, and is guided by seven fundamental principles; humanity, impartiality, neutrality, independence, voluntary service, unity and universality.

NorCross specializes in health in emergencies amongst which, Community Based Surveillance (CBS) “the systematic detection and reporting of events of public health significance within a community by volunteer community members.” is a strategic priority. CBS has demonstrated its potential to improve early case detection of infectious diseases, such as plague, diarrheal diseases and malaria.
CBS is a methodology that has been employed in previous infectious disease outbreaks in a variety of settings. RCM has previously implemented CBS in Haiti, Sierra Leone, Panama and Madagascar using a variety of off-the-shelf technologies. 
However, the technologies utilized in previous response operations faced critical challenges:

Complexity – patching different off-the-shelf technologies together created an incoherent system that was not user friendly and didn’t meet all the functional requirements
Ownership – purchasing off-the-shelf solutions made hand over of licensing agreements difficult to local partners
Cost – the cost of licensing agreements was not sustainable

The objective of this technical review is to make a thorough assessment of technology choices thus far and assess if the current system architecture and technology choices is the best fit to meet the needs of the system (functional and non-functional requirements). Please see attached documents for detailed description.,
