The IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> information model is flexible enough for each programme to customise the system to support its needs. For example, programmes that do not conduct MRE education activities do not need to complete information about MREseducation activities, and they still retain full utility of the system. Similarly, programmes that conduct victim tracking and MRE education activities only can disregard hazards and hazard reductions without any loss of utility. This flexibility, however, requires that programmes define the relevant uses of each item.
Although any item can be linked to any other item, not all relationships necessarily make sense for every programme. The diagrams below describe some of the more common logical relationships among items and can serve as the basis for an information model when implementing IMSMA<sup>NG</sup>.
Data Verification Users who typically perform quality checks on the data entered by Data Entry users. This role is often responsible for verifying the accuracy of the data entered and approving field reports.
Operations Users who typically browse for information within IMSMANG to make operational decisions. Operations users may sometimes be grouped by function (for example, MREeducation, clearance or victim assistance). These users often perform searches for data, generate reports and analyze the data to support operational needs.
System Administrator Users who perform information management-specific functions such as creating field report templates, designing reports, backing up and restoring data and other technical functions.
