Infosys’ US arm develops Covid vaccine management solution

Bengaluru, Nov 19 : Global software major Infosys’ US subsidiary Simplus said on Thursday it developed a Covid vaccine management solution on the Salesforce platform amid the pandemic.
“We have built a vaccine management cloud solution on Salesforce platform to help the US government distribute a coronavirus vaccine in the states,” said the city-based IT behemoth in a statement here.
Infosys acquired Simplus in March for $250 million from Salesforce platinum partners in the US and Australia.
The software product also covers campaign management, citizen registration, prioritisation, provider enrollment, supply chain visibility, forecasting, vaccine administration, wellness surveys and adverse event monitoring.
“The solution is integrated with Salesforce health cloud to comply with applicable laws, such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPPA) in the US,” said the statement.
The solution caters to residents as well as providers. The resident community is a one-stop-shop for individuals to find information, register with state and local governments and schedule vaccine appointments.
