Vaccines, Cold Chain and Logistics Management - Manual of Operations

This manual aims to develop and enhance the knowledge and skills of immunization service providers, NIP managers, and cold chain managers to effectively manage vaccines and immunization logistics. It provides guidance on key activities at every level of the cold chain system: calculating requirements, requisitioning, receiving, storing, distributing and monitoring vaccine use and wastage as well as implementing contingency plans. The guidelines contained here apply to vaccines under the NIP. However, the general principles of vaccines and cold chain management apply to all vaccines, including those available in the private sector.
