1. Workforce Planning Software – Capacity Project Context Dykki Settle – HRIS Strengthening Team Lead Capacity Project

2. In the beginning… Stronger workforce planning part of the Capacity Project’s initial workplan Partnership established with major commercial software vendor Costs could not be brought to an affordable level for countries.

3. …so we started developing open source workforce planning software… Recognized the variety and complexity of available models… learned of WHO’s work and others… Saw there was very little source data available in the countries for data input Changed the priorities to build management and qualification information systems

5. What and where… Software Solutions Data-Driven Decision- Making Sustainability and Continuous Improvement Infrastructure Strengthening Stakeholder Leadership Group

6. So now, after three years… …and many changes, we return to workforce planning. We invite you all to join us in achieving the HRIS Strengthening original mission: Capable, user-friendly, successful workforce planning software and systems
