A phased work plan to deploy five purpose-built digital platforms — from AI-powered voter mobilisation to real-time election monitoring — in nine weeks before polling day.
Five platforms have been prototyped and are live for review. The infrastructure is in place. What remains is building the production systems, populating real data, and deploying them to the campaign.
Every week is accounted for. AI Mobilisation launches first — it needs the most runway to build momentum with voters.
Six phases in priority order. AI Mobilisation is Phase 1 — it needs the most time to build momentum and is the delegation's stated priority.
The tool that moves votes. An intelligent campaign platform that lets NRPUP reach hundreds of thousands of voters directly — on WhatsApp and SMS — with AI answering questions, scheduling follow-ups, and surfacing who needs attention.
| Feature | What it does | Week |
|---|---|---|
| AI Voter Chatbot | WhatsApp/SMS bot answering voter questions in English, Nyanja & Bemba | 1–2 |
| Contact Database | Import supporter list; segment by province, district, ward | 1 |
| Bulk SMS Campaigns | Schedule and send targeted messages by region with delivery tracking | 1–2 |
| Message Templates | Pre-built scripts for rally invites, voting reminders, policy positions | 2 |
| Sentiment Dashboard | Track responses — who's warm, undecided, or hostile — by region | 3–4 |
| Canvassing App | Field agents log door-to-door contact outcomes on mobile | 3–4 |
| WhatsApp Broadcast | Manage multiple WhatsApp numbers at scale across the country | 3 |
| Content Generator | AI writes Facebook posts, flyers, and talking points on demand | 4 |
The party's public face. Most Zambian voters will find NRPUP here first — it must be live, fast, and mobile-first within three weeks.
Production-ready member registry for all 10 provinces. Provincial coordinators get their own accounts and can manage their regions independently.
The real-time war room dashboard. Polling agents across all 156 constituencies submit results from their stations, incidents are escalated, and leadership sees the full picture live on election day.
The definitive NRPUP leadership directory — structured from the Presidential ticket down to district chairpersons. Lightest lift; mostly content population.
Simba provides live technical support on election day — scaled infrastructure, a dedicated situation room dashboard, and a direct support line for the campaign team.
These questions need answers before development begins. They determine the size and scope of the systems being built.
| # | Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | How many supporters and contacts do you currently have? | Determines the size of the mobilisation database and SMS costs |
| 2 | Which WhatsApp numbers or business lines does the party control? | Required to set up WhatsApp broadcast at scale |
| 3 | Who is the internal technical point of contact day-to-day? | Needed for coordination, access provisioning, and training |
| 4 | How many polling agents will be deployed on election day? | Determines the number of agent accounts to provision |
| 5 | Which languages are used in your priority provinces? | AI chatbot must be trained in the right languages |
| 6 | Who are the 10 provincial coordinators? | They get the first accounts — needed before launch |
| 7 | What is the budget range for this engagement? | Ensures the scope proposed matches what can be delivered |
Two engagement options. We recommend Option A — given the timeline, a fully managed approach removes all operational burden from the campaign team so they can focus on winning.
