The Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit GmbH (GIZ), commissioned by the Swiss Agency for Development Cooperation (SDC) and the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) has launched three tenders for openIMIS within software development.
openIMIS is the first open source software for managing social (health) protection schemes, linking beneficiaries, provider and payer data. As it is free and ready to download and offers a flexible solution that can be adjusted to different schemes’ and countries’ needs, the software has to be further improved by software developers. To achieve this improvement and the integration of the software into an eco-system of open source software packages, there are three vacant positions:
Software Maintenance, Release Management and 3rd Level Support
The specific aim of the tendered services is to maintain the openIMIS software distribution and to support smooth operations of existing and new openIMIS implementations. Customization to specific requirements from countries should be included into openIMIS in case of general interest and relevance. The maintenance & development initially relates to the Microsoft based openIMIS legacy version. Step by step, this will also concern new software components written in open source technology.
