The iHRIS Suite comprises three core software solutions to the most critical health workforce planning and management issues:
Working together in a country setting, these three systems provide a powerful feedback loop for analyzing, planning and managing workforce resources and needs. Since all three solutions use the same core programming, database architecture, and supporting hardware and software systems, once one is fully deployed, the other two can be added at a significantly lower cost. Each of the three systems may also be deployed independently or integrated with software products already in place to provide a customized, contextual solution for the country, filling in any gaps that existing systems may have left.
Distributed as Open Source code under the General Public License (GPL), all three products can be downloaded, used and modified with no licensing fee. We can distribute our software at minimal cost and users can continue to improve their systems without paying onerous licensing or upgrade fees. We envision that by employing Open Source technologies, a global support community will emerge to voluntarily support the software, answer questions, provide fixes and even develop new modules.
