They prepare country-level and cross-country analyses of malaria and MNCH commodity availability plus dashboards and risk summaries for donor reporting. The Advisor also strengthens country capacity, facilitating quarterly supply planning reviews, annual quantification exercises and commodity planning workshops, and serves as a technical resource for the Quantification Analytics Tool (QAT), guiding users on forecasting methods and inventory monitoring.
