SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The workshop helps fulfill the Department of Health and Human Services' and FDA's important mission to protect the public health. The workshop will provide those engaged in FDA-regulated drug manufacturing operations with information on a number of topics concerning FDA requirements and expectations related to current good manufacturing practice (CGMP). The joint public workshop offers the opportunity for participants to join FDA representatives and industry experts in face-to-face dialogues. Each year, FDA speakers provide updates on current efforts affecting the development of global regulatory strategies, while industry professionals from some of today's leading pharmaceutical companies present case studies on how they employ strategies to manufacture high quality drugs in their daily processes. Through a series of sessions and meetings, the conference will provide participants with the opportunity to hear directly from FDA experts and representatives of global regulatory authorities on best practices. Topics for discussion include the following:

(1)The Business Case For Change;

(2)Quality Risk Management—When, What, and How;

(3)Sustaining Compliance Consistency Throughout Your Company and Supplier Network;

(4)IT Strategies—Cloud Computing, RFID, and Beyond;

(5)The Future of Drug Manufacturing. To help ensure the quality of FDA regulated products, the workshop helps to achieve objectives set forth in section 406 of the FDA Modernization Act of 1997 (Pub. L. 105-115), which includes working closely with stakeholders and maximizing the availability and clarity of information to stakeholders and the public. The workshop also is consistent with the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-121), as outreach activities by Government Agencies to small businesses.
