FDA's Smarter Tools—How Remote Regulatory Assessments Help Ensure Food Safety

KEYWORDS: food safety
9/20/22 3:00 pm to 9/20/23 EDT
Contact: Vania Halabou

Food Safety Magazine's Webinar Series, Evolution of New Era: Advancing Strategies for Smarter Food Safety, features leading voices from FDA and industry, and is the most in-depth series looking into FDA's New Era of Smarter Food Safety both inside and outside FDA. The first in this webinar series focuses on Core Element 2 of the New Era blueprint, smarter tools and approaches for prevention and outbreak response. During this webinar, you will hear about one of the "smarter tools" FDA is using to improve the safety of the food supply: remote regulatory assessments (RRAs), which are being employed at both foreign and domestic food facilities to ensure compliance with FSMA mandates.

From this webinar, you will learn:

  • How RRAs are tied into other aspects of FSMA and the New Era of Smarter Food Safety
  • How and why RRAs were developed, and how they are being deployed to oversee foreign facilities that FDA was not previously able to reach
  • How RRAs can be useful in both the domestic and foreign arenas
  • What an RRA entails, and the steps that foreign and domestic facilities need to take to prepare for the assessment
  • The advantages to domestic companies that are invited to participate in the RRA program
  • How FDA will inform industry and the public about RRAs and give them an opportunity to provide input.
