LMMS processes • Enrollment of Beneficiaries to the Program - After the targeting and verification of beneficiary through the agreed selection criteria, beneficiaries are selected to be part of the program. • Gathering Demographics - Using an Android mobile phone our field staff photograph beneficiaries and record all other relevant household demographics such as name, location, vulnerability that makes them eligible for the assistance. (at household and member level)

LMMS processes • The beneficiary data is sent to the laptop/roaming server using wireless connection for verification. • Once enrolled and approved on the system, the beneficiary then receives a photo identity card with a barcode that is scanned each time there is a distribution (cash/food/NFI) for verification and calculating accurate rations in a matter of seconds resulting in fewer errors and duplication.

LMMS processes • Eligible households are enrolled into projects and all their information is stored on the electronic database. • Multiple projects can be enrolled without repeat registration. • Commodity rations / cash allocations are set once per project to automatically calculate quantities needed for distribution planning depending on the program.

LMMS processes • During distribution, ID cards are scanned to determine eligibility and individuals are visually matched using photos on ration cards and in database. • Inventory as well as reporting is done in real time. Some of the reports include the list of beneficiaries that received cash/commodities in detail. Slide 13
