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.
