In global health and humanitarian crises, the lack of coordinated, real-time supply chain visibility impedes rapid, effective response. This results in delayed aid, misallocation of resources, and wasted funding. A 2022 WHO report estimated that over 80% of global health logistics failures stem from fragmented systems and insufficient data sharing. Communities facing crises—whether due to conflict, climate, or chronic underfunding—struggle to access timely care because responders and resources are disconnected. The problem is compounded when communication breaks down in low- or no-connectivity settings, or when informal and formal networks can’t align. The consequences are critical: missed diagnoses, empty clinics, and wasted aid. Our solution addresses this gap by providing a shared, flexible platform that makes it possible to see, coordinate, and adapt supply chains and service delivery networks in real time—even at the last mile.

The trellyz Networked Resilience Initiative is a real-time, many-to-many logistics coordination and modeling platform designed for yeshumanitarian and public health environments. It supports a federated, dynamic view of supply chains by unifying data from diverse actors—governments, NGOs, civil society groups, and private providers—into one accessible interface. The platform supports both a powerful web interface for organizations, and a public-facing mobile app (RefAid) that functions even in low- or no-connectivity settings. RefAid allows individuals to find services and access referrals, while service providers can use the same app (via secure login) to survey users, track outcomes, and collaborate with partners. The platform has proven itself in refugee crises, disaster response, and fragile systems. While we’ve sustained operations with minimal funding—95% of which we’ve self-funded—we’ve remained committed to jumping in when systems break down. For example, our LifeChutes initiative was launched in response to the collapse of U.S. and international funding for critical humanitarian networks. In Nigeria, we are partnering voluntarily with SieDi-Hub to preserve and map local services and supply chains and co-develop tools to serve frontline workers and patients—especially in low-connectivity and rural regions.

The trellyz Networked Resilience Initiative is designed to serve global health and humanitarian stakeholders—government agencies, NGOs, frontline health workers, and the underserved populations they aim to reach. In Nigeria, the solution is being implemented in partnership with SieDi-Hub through youth-led teams trained under the CHAMP (Community Health Action Mentorship Project) program. These youth health champions and frontline workers use mobile tools to strengthen referral tracking, local decision-making, and access to care. Our platform has already been used by over 10,000 organizations in 50 countries, including Red Cross, Doctors of the World, Médecins Sans Frontières, World Relief, and the International Rescue Committee. Applications built on the trellyz platform—such as RefAid—enable last-mile coordination, even in low or no connectivity environments. RefAid has been particularly valuable in crisis zones, offering offline functionality for real-time communication, service discovery, and access. Our tools remain widely deployed across Europe, Morocco, Nigeria, and other regions. trellyz has been 95% self-funded, with only one project receiving external funding in 10 years. This reflects our long-standing commitment to supporting frontline and grassroots actors, not just through software, but through the architecture of collaboration itself.
