@alihabib @maimoonak Below are our notes so far. We should try to finalize the scope soon.

Product scope description

Focused on drug susceptible TB (has referrals mechanisms for MDR TB even maybe just on the OpenMRS side)
End to end solution (includes screening)
- Use case can be active screening or passive walk-ins
- Flexible to work with even just an in-treatment workflow
- Includes some ability of contact tracing
Primary user is LHW-type role and ability — not a GP
- Not for clinical work
- Used to make sure people are on time and services are given on time
Flexible to work with minority populations i.e. HIV, pediatric TB, extrapulmonary TB
Installation will take a tech-savvy person = medium technical ability - Linux user, XLSForm experience, can follow technical documentation and take a week+ to set this app up in-house

General install process
- Download APK
- Customize files
- Upload all the files to a website somewhere
- Sync a few minutes later - checks all the form, reporting, schedule, etc versions and updates the changed ones
At the end, there will be existing concepts, schedules, register views, registers, forms, and reports - so anybody can have an 80% app with no additional work
Detailed full list of deliverables on Github

Not for clinical uses
Not for MDR TB
Not one-click install — much more complex than setting up something like Wordpress on own host
Not going to solve every TB scenario
Targeting a limited amount of configurability

Using XLSForms for forms in app will be fast enough
A three register model (presumptive, positive, in-treatment) will cover the needs of users within the scope of this project
The technical work involved (set up, learning new technologies, etc) for groups interested in adopting this is worthwhile for groups because of the cost of setting up a custom app or choosing another solution
This app is better solution than other available tools because it provides and end to end solution; it's the differentiator/innovation from other apps
