Data requirements

	Target population	Epidemiological	Intervention coverage	Intervention cost*	Preloaded data
CAPACITI	Flexible	Flexible	NA	Flexible	No
PriorityVax	Flexible	Flexible	NA	Flexible	On request
HIPtool	NA	Burden prevalence	Not an input; optimises investment	Intervention unit costs	Yes
Optima	By subpopulation (demographic, geography and risk group) and population dynamics†	Several inputs	Over time	Intervention unit costs	Yes (sources in documentation)
OneHealth (Spectrum suite)	By subpopulation (sociodemographic and geography)‡; population dynamics†	Several inputs (varies by module)	Over time	Intervention; human-resources, logistics and infrastructure for delivery	Yes (sources in tool)
LiST	By subpopulation (sociodemographic and geography); population dynamics†	Incidence, prevalence and health indicators, depending on disease	Over time	Intervention; human-resources, logistics and infrastructure for delivery	Yes (sources in tool)
EQUIST	By subpopulations (sociodemographic and geography)	Several inputs	Bottlenecks to effective coverage and their contribution	Yes	Yes (sources in tool); several inputs cannot be updated by the user but can be managed by the ‘country administrator’

Several of the categories are not applicable for evidence synthesis and/or process tools such multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA) ones; flexible—as MCDA tools define criteria as part of the process, these inputs are flexible.

*Users can combine costs to include them under one category; we note how tools disaggregate the cost data further (eg, human resources and logistics).

†The types of data included may vary by module within OneHealth.

‡Population dynamic parameters include ones related to fertility and mortality (exogenous to diseases and interventions evaluated).

CAPACITI, Country-led Assessment for Priortisation in Immunisation; EQUIST, EQUitable Strategies to Save Lives Tool; HIPtool, Health Interventions Priortisation tool; LiST, Lives Saved Tool; NA, not applicable.
