COVAX is the global initiative that will make vaccines available for 189 countries
Salesforce, the global CRM company, and Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, recently announced via a press statement that they will collaborate to help Gavi manage critical information to equitably distribute approximately two billion Covid-19 vaccines to 190 countries by the end of 2021.
Public-private partnerships, such as Gavi, which are focused on getting vaccines to some of the world’s poorest countries, need to be armed with data and technology to facilitate distribution at scale. The ability to manage huge volumes of country data is essential.
Gavi needs a single source of truth to help them understand how many vaccines are needed and where. Salesforce Work.com for vaccines, Experience Cloud and Nonprofit Cloud will power Gavi’s COVAX country engagement platform, which will help them manage critical information.
Salesforce enables COVAX to move quickly to support fast access to vaccines with a single, secure portal that all participating countries can use to communicate and share information, such as vaccine requirements and access reports.
“The scale and urgency of the COVAX mission calls for tools we can expand quickly and use to manage what has become one of the largest and most complex undertakings ever in global health,” said Dr. Seth Berkley, CEO, Gavi.
“We are arming 190 countries and economies with the platform they need to communicate critical information around vaccine requirements and equitable distribution for as many as two billion vaccines by the end of 2021,” stressed Rob Acker, CEO at Salesforce.org.
