The Nigeria Immunization Digital Adaptation Kit (DAK) translates national immunization policies, programme guidance, and service-delivery expectations into structured requirements that can be implemented consistently in digital health solutions.
This section brings together the core business requirements for immunization service delivery. Each linked page describes a specific part of the DAK, from the underlying programme guidance and the people who use the system to workflows, decision-support rules, and technical requirements.
The Narrative Immunization Guidelines describe the policy, programme, and service-delivery context for routine immunization in Nigeria. They provide the foundation for the business requirements by explaining the intended immunization practices, target populations, service points, documentation needs, and expected outcomes.

The Generic Persona page describes the principal users and stakeholders involved in immunization service delivery and digital documentation. These may include caregivers, vaccinators, community health workers, facility managers, immunization programme officers, data managers, and other authorised users.
The User Scenario page presents realistic immunization service-delivery situations in which users interact with the digital system. The scenarios help connect programme guidance to practical user needs, system behaviour, data capture, and information exchange.
The Business Processes and Workflow page describes the sequence of activities required to deliver and document immunization services. It covers how users, systems, and programme processes interact across registration, eligibility assessment, vaccine administration, follow-up, referral, reporting, and related activities.
View the Business Processes and Workflow
The Core data elements page defines the data elements that will be captured through workflows of the implementation of digital immunization solutions.
The Decision Support Logic page defines the rules used to support immunization-related decisions. These rules may address vaccine eligibility, scheduling, contraindications, missed doses, catch-up vaccination, due and overdue doses, referrals, alerts, and other programme-defined actions.

The Indicators page defines the indicators that will be used for measuring progress of the implementation of digital immunization solutions.
The Functional Requirements page defines what a digital immunization solution must be able to do. It describes the required system functions for users, workflows, data capture, validation, decision support, reporting, interoperability, administration, and other operational needs.

The Non-Functional Requirements page defines the quality, performance, security, privacy, usability, reliability, scalability, maintainability, and operational expectations that should guide the design and implementation of digital immunization solutions.
