FDA wants companies to submit on a voluntary basis a facility profile with operational details about their plants so the agency can prepare for inspections in advance, reduce inspection times and create a database of products, hazards and preventive controls.
In a Federal Register notice published on Friday, FDA gave examples of the type of information the profile would gather, including the type of facility, products and hazards, and preventive control measures associated with those products.
