A strong reproductive health supply chain supported by an effective logistic management system ensures that the right quality product, in the right quantities, and in the right condition is delivered to the right place, at the right time, for a reasonable cost.

The resources in this section cover important supply chain and logistic management issues such as:

- procurement procedures and processes,
- implementing logistics management information systems, and
