Overview

All OCHA staff have access to the OCHA Global Office (OCHA GO) suite of Microsoft 365 Products (Access, Excel, Onenote, Outlook, Powerpoint, Word, and Skype for Business).  OCHA is currently (May 2018) working on a shared drive solution that will include a combination of OneDrive and SharePoint.  However, an IM unit needs additional software to process, analyze and disseminate information. The list of tools normally used for an IMU can be found under the tools section in this toolbox

  • ArcGIS Advanced one license only per office if needed
• Adobe Suite
  • Acrobat Pro

Discussions are underway to determine the best approach to ensuring that all OCHA field offices have the necessary software at reasonable corporate rates.
