The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has launched an initiative aimed at modernizing domestic food facility inspections and strengthening coordination across federal and state programs.
The Better Regulatory Inspections for Dynamic Government Efficiency (BRIDGE) Project is an FDA-led effort to update how routine domestic food facility inspections are planned, conducted, and coordinated. The initiative has been identified as a priority within FDA’s Human Foods Program (HFP) and Office of Inspections and Investigations (OII), with support from state regulatory programs and national association partners.
