The VaxIT app, developed on the Salesforce platform for Azim Premji Foundation and its partners, captures the status of vaccinations to help individuals plan and stay updated on their progress. The Foundation’s program aims to serve populations covered by over 3500 Primary Healthcare Centers (PHC). VaxIT, available as a mobile app on the Android app store, provides multi-language and offline capabilities to help volunteers, programme managers, field data administrators and others to support the vaccination process including efforts for outreach and mobilization, tracking of doses and planning.

The collaboration comes at a time when, when there appears to be sufficient supply of vaccines across the country, while factors such as mobilization and outreach with accurate data remain the challenges in getting closer to 100% of the country’s population vaccinated.
