CWIS Information Management System (CWIS IMS)
CWISIMS is a vital module of the IMIS that provides tools to generate CWIS indicators for the city and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to monitor the performance of sanitation service providers for a specified year. The CWISIMS is a part of the UMDSS which allows municipalities to set targets for each indicator in alignment with city policies and standards, and it includes a dashboard for the visualization of these indicators. The generated indicator data is maintained in a database, enabling easy access and review when needed, ensuring effective monitoring and planning.

CWIS IMIS Introduction
CWISIMS is a vital module of the IMIS that provides tools to generate CWIS indicators for the city and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to monitor the performance of sanitation service providers for a specified year. The CWISIMS is a part of the UMDSS which allows municipalities to set targets for each indicator in alignment with city policies and standards, and it includes a dashboard for the visualization of these indicators. The generated indicator data is maintained in a database, enabling easy access and review when needed, ensuring effective monitoring and planning.
i. CWIS Dashboard - The CWIS Dashboard tracks 22 sanitation indicators (Annex 1), which are generated annually. The indicators are based on the CWIS framework developed by Athena Informatics, ensuring consistency with globally recognized standards for inclusive sanitation monitoring. This dashboard provides municipalities with a centralized platform for tracking sanitation progress and assessing the effectiveness of implemented policies and services.
ii. KPI Dashboard – The KPI Dashboard complements the CWIS Dashboard by focusing on the performance of sanitation service providers. It monitors seven critical KPIs (1. Application Response Efficiency, 2. Customer Satisfaction, 3. PPE Compliance, 4. Safe Desludging, 5. Faecal Sludge Collection Ration, 6. Response Time, 7. Inclusion), which are also generated annually, using sanitation service data related to faecal sludge management (FSM) service delivery. These KPIs are designed to evaluate the efficiency and quality of services provided by sanitation operators, based on metrics developed by SNV Bangladesh. By leveraging this dashboard, municipalities can benchmark service provider performance and identify areas for operational improvement within their sanitation systems.
CWISIMS, through its dual focus on CWIS indicators and KPIs, provides municipalities with robust tools for monitoring and improving their sanitation systems. By aligning indicator and KPI tracking with international standards and municipal goals, it ensures data-driven decision-making and continuous improvement in sanitation service delivery and management.
