Digital Adaptation Kits (DAKs) are part of WHO’s SMART guidelines initiative. This aims to ensure that the content of WHO’s evidence-based guidelines is accurately reflected in the digital systems being used at country level. The DAKs provide software-neutral, operational, and structured documentation based on WHO recommendations related to clinical care, health systems and use of data, to systematically and transparently inform the design of digital systems.

Standard components of each DAK include: (1) health interventions and recommendations; (2) generic personas; (3) user scenarios; (4) generic business processes and workflows; (5) core data elements mapped to standard terminology codes (e.g. the international classification of diseases); (6) decision-support logic; (7) programme indicators; and (8) functional and non-functional requirements.

This DAK focuses on providing the content requirements for person-centred point-of-service systems used in primary health care settings by health workers for the provision of immunization services.
