    Abstract Introduction: High quality, timely and complete immunization data are essential for program planning and decision-making. In Nigeria, the National Health Management Information System (NHMIS) Routine Immunization (RI) module and dashboard (on the District Health Information System version 2 (DHIS2) platform) support the use of real time RI data. We deployed an automated short message service (SMS) notification system that works with the existing RI module to facilitate improvements in RI data in the DHIS2.
    Methods: A pilot project was performed using intervention and control local government areas (LGAs). A mixed methods approach using both qualitative and quantitative methods was used to evaluate the system. We assessed changes in reporting rates across different reports. The evaluation also included baseline and post-intervention surveys of health facility (HF) staff.
    Results: Reporting timeliness (76% pre and 99% post intervention) and completeness (83% pre and 99% post intervention) were consistently higher during the post-intervention than the pre-intervention period for facilities in the intervention LGA while reporting timeliness (65% pre and 66% post intervention) and completeness (71% and 77% post intervention) for facilities in the control LGA showed no change. Users reported that the SMS system was easy to understand and helped to facilitate improvements in consistency of data and timeliness of reporting. Inability of health care workers to effect changes at the HF level and the lack of immediate feedback were reported as key challenges to timeliness and quality of reports.
    Conclusion: An SMS-based intervention improved timeliness and completeness of health data reporting. However, the intervention should be evaluated on a larger scale over a longer time period before considering a national implementation.

    Abstract Introduction: a district health information system 2 tool with a customized routine immunization (RI) module and indicator dashboard was introduced in Kano State, Nigeria, in November 2014 to improve data management and analysis of RI services. We assessed the use of the module for program monitoring and decision-making, as well as the enabling factors and barriers to data collection and use.
    Methods: a mixed-methods approach was used to assess user experience with the RI data module and dashboard, including 1) a semi-structured survey questionnaire administered at 60 health facilities administering vaccinations and 2) focus group discussions and 16 in-depth interviews conducted with immunization program staff members at the local government area (LGA) and state levels.
    Results: in health facilities, a RI monitoring chart was used to review progress toward meeting vaccination coverage targets. At the LGA, staff members used RI dashboard data to prioritize health facilities for additional support. At the State level, immunization program staff members use RI data to make policy decisions. They viewed the provision of real-time data through the RI dashboard as a "game changer". Use of immunization data is facilitated through review meetings and supportive supervision visits. Barriers to data use among LGA staff members included inadequate understanding of the data collection tools and computer illiteracy.
    Conclusion: the routine immunization data dashboard facilitated access to and use of data for decision-making at the LGA, State and national levels, however, use at the health facility level remains limited. Ongoing data review meetings and training on computer skills and data collection tools are recommended.
