OpenSPP
What is it?

OpenSPP is a digital information system for social protection that makes it easier for governments and humanitarian organizations to implement, manage and monitor assistance programs, both in cash and in kind. It offers functionalities for the management of records, resources and services, as well as advanced capabilities for data interoperability, collection, analysis and visualization. Faced with the challenges faced by low- and middle-income countries, as well as humanitarian organizations, in terms of inefficient social protection systems, OpenSPP emerges as a scalable, modular and highly interoperable solution. This system provides the essential components for effective delivery of assistance programs, ensuring that support reaches those who need it most.

What problems does it solve?

The challenge addressed by OpenSPP lies in the complex nature of managing social protection programs that vary widely in scope, scale and objectives. Traditional management systems are often rigid and unable to adapt to the unique demands of different social protection initiatives, leading to inefficiencies and difficulties in tracking program outcomes and beneficiary impact.

How does the tool work?

Registration: Allows individuals and groups to register for social protection programs, capturing necessary information and documentation. Registry of individuals and groups: Maintains a comprehensive database of individuals and groups registered for programs. Change requests: Allows individuals and groups to request changes to their registration or program participation, such as updates to personal information or changes in eligibility. Assessment of eligibility: Automates the assessment of eligibility for social protection programs, using rules and criteria set by the organization. Program and cycle management: Manages the lifecycle of social protection programs, including the planning, implementation, and evaluation of programs. Cash transfer: Enables the distribution of cash payments to individuals and groups through various channels, including mobile money or e-wallets. In-kind distribution: Manages the distribution of in-kind assistance, such as food or other necessities. Reporting and analytics: Provides real-time data and insights on program performance and impact.

Open standards
