The IPC Information Support System (ISS) for IPC version 2.0 Acute Analyses was piloted between July and September 2013. So far, the ISS has been piloted in Sudan, Honduras and Zimbabwe, where data from the acute analysis of 2012 were successfully entered into ISS and shared. Feedback from participants was very positive.

Country IPC Technical Working Group (TWG) members commented on the ease of use of the application and the potential to improve the quality of the analysis due to the standardization of the forms. Other analysts added that the ISS simplified the data entry process by automating certain processes, calculations, and steps such as the production of the Communication Template. 

Another pilot is planned in Tanzania in November 2013. Next year, the ISS will be rolled out in countries opting to utilize the system.
