Remote App Training Videos

During the peak of COVID-19, the state of Colorado adopted CommCare as their case investigation and contact tracing software. As part of this, the state led a comprehensive remote training program for all COVID-19 contact tracers and investigators to learn CommCare. Below are a few reference resources.

Project Budgeting

Budgeting is one of the most important considerations for any mobile project. Building a holistic picture of all the related costs associated with a mobile project takes time.

To help organizations estimate the total cost of adopting CommCare (or other mobile technologies) for frontline programs, we have developed an easy-to-use budgeting tool called the Total Cost of Ownership Model. 

The TCO Model serves as a simple, transparent exercise for organizations interested in understanding the cost of maintaining a mobile solution. The tool provides a model to budget the adoption and deployment of CommCare over five years, and is based on 10+ years of experience helping hundreds of partners determine their budgets.

The TCO Model helps organizations:  

  • Estimate the total cost of adopting CommCare or other mobile technologies

  • Explore permutations and plan budgets accordingly

  • Help groups understand and/or identify the real cost drivers to maintaining a mobile system

  • Assess how these costs can be shared by governments, external donors, NGOs, or others 

Please feel free to http://www.dimagi.com/contact/ with any questions on the TCO Model or your proposed project.
