Overview
This handbook provides countries with a stepwise approach to implementing standardized national product catalogues and product master data management processes. It builds on the framework established in the Digital Implementation Investment Guide (DIIG): Integrating Digital Interventions into Health Programmes and aligns with the WHO SMART Guidelines L1 Narrative layer. By offering practical guidance on managing standardized product master data, this handbook complements the Digital Transformation Handbook for Health Supply Chain Architecture through its focused guidance on the product registry — a foundational shared service component within the broader architectural framework.
