9. System Point of Contact (POC). The System POC is the person to whom questions about the system and the responses to this PIA may be addressed: Mahesh Choksi

10. Provide an overview of the system: The Admin Tracking system is a collection of administrative and statistical data. It is comprised of the following components:

1) Counter Terrorism Level of Effort Reporting (CTLoE) – The CTLoE reports monthly counter-terrorism activities. It tracks the number of hours the staff is dedicating for functions related to this funding category.

2) Division of Planning, Evaluation and Budget (DPEB) – The application is accessible from the CBER menu. The DPEB system is a collection of similar forms and reports that are used to track special funding categories. To date forms have been set up to track Administrative and Financial numbers such as the S CBER transaction numbers for Requisitions numbers, K numbers (Bio-Terrorism), X numbers, and U numbers (Cooperative Research and Development Agreement -(CRADA)). Funding amounts are identified sequentially and assigned to cost centers and are associated with location codes, offices, divisions, and CAN numbers by fiscal year. The forms are able to dynamically adjust totals and track funding history by using amendments. Status reports are part of each module.

3) Resource Reporting System (RRS) – The RRS tracks time spent in various work areas for PDUFA reporting, e.g., Investigational Related Applications (IRAs), Biologics License Applications (BLAs), Research, Control Lab, Surveillance & Enforcement, misc., and other types of products: plasma, devices, vaccines, monoclonals, etc. Data is collected quarterly.

4) Account Access Information Review System (AAIR) - The system allows information owners to review their users' associated roles and basic system usage information. AAIR is not accessed through the CBER menu, but rather a web-based link provided to staff by the discretion of upper management on a quarterly basis

5) Automated Person System (APS) - The CBER Document Control Center (DCC) and Office of Information Management (OIM) use APS to record and maintain location and organization information on CBER and the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) employees, including contractors. APS provides data to DATS to route and subsequently track CBER regulatory documents. APS provides source data for the CBER staff directory. OIM personnel use person table data for secured account management of their applications including CRMTS, RRS, BIRAMS, LRS, BLT, BLA and EDR; for issuing email from the applications and batch jobs, and removing the IT accounts for identified former CBER employees.

6) Account Database Management System (ADM) - A tool to assist in the assignment of Oracle Database roles to users. This module can be selected in two ways. Access can get granted via the CBER menu or by clicking an icon on the desktop. After which the user will need a username and password to access this module.

7) Director’s View - CBER Menu selection that originally allowed for validated user sign-on to a number of Cold Fusion applications which serve as facilitated queries across CBER regulatory systems. Also allows for validated entry to several other Cold Fusion applications.

8) Contact List - Maintains the list of COOP and Pandemic Flu business contact information. A reminder every month is distributed to update the Contact List, which includes personal and business contact information such as telephone numbers, e-mail addresses and other PII related information.

9) Scientific Computing - CBER Research Central (http://research.cber.fda.gov) supports CBER's goal of maintaining a high-quality research program which contributes directly to the regulatory mission, and it is a component of CBER's Laboratory Quality Assurance program (http://intranet.fda.gov/cber/qa/qa.htm).

Core COMIS is a Major Application that is used to track the status and progress of applications for Investigational New Drug Applications (IND), New Drug Applications (NDA), and Abbreviated New Drug Applications (ANDA), both pre- and post-marketing. The FD&C Act of 1938 authorizes this activity.

The data is non-public information and is strictly controlled. It contains no privacy information with the exception of the module known as the Bioresearch Monitoring Information System (BrmIS). This module contains identification of clinical investigators along with identifying information. The database is used to keep track of the investigators and link them to specific applications they are involved with. Because this database contains individual names of investigators and personal identifiers, access to it is more limited than any other Center system. BrMIS is exempt from PIA regulations because it contains investigatory records for law enforcement purposes.

13. Indicate if the system is new or an existing one being modified: Existing

10. Provide an overview of the system: CDER is responsible for tracking, reporting, and maintaining an archival record of the drug and biological products submitted to the FDA for review. The center reports to Congress on a number of issues, including performance on Prescription Drug User Fee Act of 1992 (PDUFA) related goals. To fulfill the mission and goals of CDER, DARRTS will provide a flexible, integrated, web-based system that will:

• Support the drug review and biologic review product tracking process;

• Provide administrative and regulatory reporting capabilities; and

• Improve the process by removing design components that result in work-arounds in the current system.

DARRTS is a component of CDER’s overall initiative to move toward a fully electronic submission receipt, processing, and management system. DARRTS, which will be implemented in phases, will replace CDER’s current systems supporting the receipt, management, and reporting of information about clinical investigational and marketing submissions for human drugs and therapeutics.

9. System Point of Contact (POC). The System POC is the person to whom questions about the system and the responses to this PIA may be addressed: Michael Coene

10. Provide an overview of the system:

Under the Medical Device Amendments of 1976, manufacturers of medical devices--including but not limited to x-ray machines, pace makers and breast implants--are required to submit applications to the FDA for approval to ensure that these products are safe, effective, and labeled properly before they become available on the market.

CDRH receives and reviews thousands of submissions from regulated industry and consumers seeking FDA approval to market new devices and products, as well as to track changes and adverse events related to approved products. These submissions traditionally have been scanned into the electronic document management system "Image 2000". The CeSub project is based mostly upon the Image 2000 knowledge and document management system, and it adds functionality to permit the receipt and review of electronic submissions.

13. Indicate if the system is new or an existing one being modified: Existing

9. System Point of Contact (POC). The System POC is the person to whom questions about the system and the responses to this PIA may be addressed: Karen Moss

10. Provide an overview of the system: The Center Legacy Application Support Systems (CLASS) represents a set of existing databases that support the primary functional areas of device registration and listing, tracking of submissions prior to marketing a medical device, and recording adverse events related to medical devices after they have been introduced to the marketplace.

The Registration and Listing activity is authorized by Section 510 of the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act as amended, which requires the Food and Drug Administration to collect information on all medical device establishments that market medical devices in the United States. The act requires that medical device establishment’s register their physical location, and to list the devices manufactured or processed at this physical location with FDA. The act specifies that collected information is FOI-releasable. This portion of the system is a collection of databases that store information that Deregulated medical device establishments are required to submit to comply with the reporting requirements specified in 21 CFR 807.The information is retained forever in a combination of historical tables and current data files.

The pre-market activity is mandated by the 1976 medical device amendments to the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, while the post market activity is conducted under the authority of the Safe Medical Devices Act of 1991.

13. Indicate if the system is new or an existing one being modified: Existing

17. Does/Will the system collect, maintain (store), disseminate and/or pass through IIF within any database(s), record(s), file(s) or website(s) hosted by this system?: Yes

Note: This question seeks to identify any, and all, personal information associated with the system. This includes any IIF, whether or not it is subject to the Privacy Act, whether the individuals are employees, the public, research subjects, or business partners, and whether provided voluntarily or collected by mandate. Later questions will try to understand the character of the data and its applicability to the requirements under the Privacy Act or other legislation

Note: If no IIF is contained in the system, please answer questions 21, 23, 30, 31, 37, 50 and 54, then promote the PIA to the Sr. Privacy Official who will authorize the PIA.

If this system contains IIF, all remaining questions on the PIA Form Tabs must be completed prior to signature and promotion.

21. Is the system subject to the Privacy Act?: No

23. If the system shares or discloses IIF please specify with whom and for what purpose(s): N/A

30. Please describe in detail: (1) the information the agency will collect, maintain, or disseminate; (2) why and for what purpose the agency will use the information; (3) In this description, indicate whether the information contains IIF; and (4) whether submission of personal information is voluntary or mandatory: Registration and Listing information collected identifies the name and physical location of the establishment, the establishment’s owner or operator, an Official Correspondent, other business trading names, and the name of the United States agent. Device information collected identifies the category of the device manufactured or processed at this registered establishment. The Official Correspondent and United States agent are business contacts. FDA collects their name, company name, address, phone and fax numbers, and e-mail address. This information is not considered to be personal privacy information since it is solely used to contact the regulated establishment regarding FDA matters. Extensive analysis of the burden of collecting this information, has limited the data collected to the information that FDA needs to carry out its regulatory responsibility to inspect and monitor the compliance of medical device establishments.

Pre-market information collected for this system is primarily a computer record of the receipt of a pre-market submission for a medical device. Information identifying the device, the applicant, the submitter, the manufacturing site, and the intended use of the device are taken from the pre-market submission. Most of the data in the system is administrative data, detailing the FDA review process, generated by FDA, and is not data from the pre-market submission. Submitters do provide the names of contact individuals. These individuals are contacted, as necessary, to answer questions, provide additional information, and facilitate the prompt review of the submission.

Post-market data collected for this system provides details of specific adverse events and malfunctions related to medical devices. The data consist of a summary description of the event being reported, identifies the device and its manufacturer, some general patient and medical information, the location of event, and codified analysis of the event by the device manufacturer. This level of reporting provides enough data to generate adverse event statistics and provides enough detail for qualified event analysts to identify events requiring more extensive investigation, either as an individual event or as part of a systematic evaluation of the safety of specific groups of devices.

Within post-market, certain patient-specific information is collected, such as patient age or birth date, weight, gender, and a non-standard patient identification number created by a user facility. Reporting instructions specifically instruct the reporting hospitals, device manufacturers, device distributors, and any voluntary reporters not to include patient names, names of attending medical personnel, social security numbers, driver’s license numbers or other personally identifiable information in response to specific questions or to imbed this information in descriptions of events. When reporters incorrectly provide such information, it is not entered into the database. References to patient names and attending medical personnel are replaced with generic terms such as “the patient”, “the doctor”, etc. The patient data is never released to the public and is not used to track patients. It is collected solely to provide a complete picture of the adverse event. Reporting organizations, such as a user facility or device manufacturer, do provide the names of contact individuals. These normally would be the names of risk managers for user facilities and product engineers or regulatory managers for device manufacturers. These names are not released to the public.

31. Please describe in detail any processes in place to: (1) notify and obtain consent from the individuals whose IIF is in the system when major changes occur to the system (e.g., disclosure and/or data uses have changed since the notice at the time of the original collection); and (2) notify and obtain consent from individuals regarding what IIF is being collected from them and how the information will be used or shared: N/A

9. System Point of Contact (POC). The System POC is the person to whom questions about the system and the responses to this: David Acheson

10. Provide an overview of the system: CAERS is part of CFSAN’s Strategic Plans - Strategic Goal 3.5: Reduce the health risks associated with food and cosmetic products by preventing human exposure to hazards, monitoring product quality, and correcting problems that are identified.

CFSAN is responsible for assuring a safe and wholesome food supply as well as safe cosmetics for the United States’ consumers. As part of this mission, CFSAN performs post-market surveillance (CAERS) by collecting and monitoring adverse events resulting from the use of the following:

- cosmetics,

- traditional foods,

- food and color additives,

- Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) ingredients,

- special nutritional products including dietary supplements,

- medical foods, and

- infant formulas.

While a small portion of these products have mandatory pre-market approval, pre-market notification, and/or post-market surveillance requirements, most of these products, notably dietary supplements, have no such requirements. CFSAN’s primary source of information about these products and post-market surveillance is collected through voluntary adverse event reporting handled by CAERS.

13. Indicate if the system is new or an existing one being modified: Existing

17. Does/Will the system collect, maintain (store), disseminate and/or pass through IIF within any database(s), record(s), file(s) or website(s) hosted by this system?: No

This includes any IIF, whether or not it is subject to the Privacy Act, whether the individuals are employees, the public, research subjects, or business partners, and whether provided voluntarily or collected by mandate. Later questions will try to understand the character of the data and its applicability to the requirements under the Privacy Act or other legislation

Note: If no IIF is contained in the system, please answer questions 21, 23, 30, 31, 37, 50 and 54, then promote the PIA to the Sr. Privacy Official who will authorize the PIA.

If this system contains IIF, all remaining questions on the PIA Form Tabs must be completed prior to signature and promotion.

21. Is the system subject to the Privacy Act?: No

23. If the system shares or discloses IIF please specify with whom and for what purpose(s): When follow-up on case is needed for regulatory investigational purposes related to product, IIF may be disclosed to our field operations (Office of Regulatory Affairs) for investigation (e.g. to obtain product label from case to follow-up with investigation of firm).

30. Please describe in detail: (1) the information the agency will collect, maintain, or disseminate; (2) why and for what purpose the agency will use the information; (3) In this description, indicate whether the information contains IIF; and (4) whether submission of personal information is voluntary or mandatory: The mission of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (CFSAN) is to assure the safety and wholesomeness of the nation's dairy products, plant foods, beverages, seafood, dietary supplements, cosmetic products, infant formula, medical foods, food and color additives, and all ingredients that come into contact with foods (CFSAN regulated Products). Among CFSAN's priority activities supporting this mission is performing post-market surveillance including but not limited to collecting, monitoring, and analyzing adverse event reports and product complaints, which are alleged to be related to CFSAN regulated products. Virtually all of reports of the adverse events and product complaints are voluntary submissions from consumers, health professionals, and other interested parties. The very rare exception to voluntary submission is the mandatory reporting required for firms that manufacture infant formula when a death of an infant has been associated with their product. Reports are captured and processed and enter the CFSAN Adverse Event Reporting System (CAERS) through several routes (FDA's Field Accomplishments and Compliance Tracking System (FACTS), FDA's MedWatch Program, and direct mail, e-mail, or phone messages to CAERS). Voluntary IIF information may be included in the system. However, records are not retrievable by IIF; instead, an agency-assigned CAERS case number is given to the case when information is entered into CAERS. The CAERS data is used as a basis for enforcement and regulatory action on CFSAN regulated firms and products to help perform the mission described above.

31. Please describe in detail any processes in place to: (1) notify and obtain consent from the individuals whose IIF is in the system when major changes occur to the system (e.g., disclosure and/or data uses have changed since the notice at the time of the original collection); and (2) notify and obtain consent from individuals regarding what IIF is being collected from them and how the information will be used or shared: No processes are in place because records are not retrievable using IIF.

32. Does the system host a website?: Yes

37. Does the website have any information or pages directed at children under the age of thirteen?: No

50. Are there policies or guidelines in place with regard to the retention and destruction of IIF?: Yes

54. Briefly describe in detail how the IIF will be secured on the system using administrative, technical, and physical controls.: The information contained within CAERS is protected by several layers of administrative, physical, and technical controls in accordance with policies and regulations from the FDA, NIST, and OMB. All applicable security controls are reviewed on a periodic basis to ensure that they are implemented correctly, operating as intended, and producing the desired result of protecting all information within CAERS.

9. System Point of Contact (POC). The System POC is the person to whom questions about the system and the responses to this PIA may be addressed: Michael Fauntleroy

10. Provide an overview of the system: The purpose of the FDA Electronic Submissions Gateway (FDA ESG) is to provide a centralized, secure, Agency-wide solution for receiving electronic regulatory submissions. The FDA ESG will also be used to transmit regulatory data and information to other Government Agencies. The FDA ESG is a General Support System (GSS) as defined in NIST guidance and OMB Circular A-130. The FDA ESG is essentially a component of a communications system, collecting information from multiple sources, then forwarding that information to a file server where the appropriate FDA system can retrieve the information. Information is stored within the FDA ESG on a limited basis in support of integrity and availability procedures. The FDA ESG owns none of the data that passes through its components. The data are “owned” by the supported applications. Thus, the FDA ESG is providing a supporting service to these applications as opposed to performing an FDA mission-specific function. The FDA ESG project will help the FDA achieve its legal mandate under the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) for eliminating paper transactions in favor of electronic submissions and processing. The FDA ESG was a specific goal of PDUFA III.

The first set of data is collected from external Transaction Partners to create user accounts within the FDA ESG to support the transmission of regulatory documents. The accounts are owned by a corporate entity. The corporate entity supplies the name, phone number and email address for a primary and secondary contact person. This information is used by the FDA ESG when necessary to resolve technical issues. The second set of data is meta-data about each regulatory submission and includes time of submission, user account, transmission protocol, message id, and file name. This information is used by the Agency to track the submission and aid in file recovery.

9. System Point of Contact (POC). The System POC is the person to whom questions about the system and the responses to this PIA may be addressed: Ray Russo

10. Provide an overview of the system: On June 12, 2002, President Bush signed The Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Act of 2002 (PL 107-188). This Act was written to enhance the nation's ability to prevent, identify, and respond to bioterrorism. In the case of FDA, the Bioterrorism Act substantially expands the authority the FDA can bring to bear in regulating the food industry.

Domestic and foreign food facilities (importing food into the United States) will be required to register with FDA. Information required includes: name and address of facility; a U.S. agent if foreign facility; and emergency contact information in the event of a public health emergency. As a result of this Act, FDA has a very aggressive schedule for rulemakings and for systems addressing the registration of food facilities, record-keeping, and prior notice of imported food shipments.

The Food Facility Registration System required in the Act will allow FDA to compile an up-to-date list of relevant facilities and to rapidly identify and contact potentially affected facilities in the context of possible bioterrorism involving the food supply. However, FDA must accommodate a registration period 60 days in advance of the statutory deadline of December 12, 2003 to assure that the international system of food production and transport is not disrupted.

While FDA regulators work diligently to put the required regulations in place, the aggressive timeframe mandated under law applies also to the development of the Food Registration system. Therefore, the Food Facility Registration Module of the FDA Unified Registration and Listing System was brought on-line on October 16, 2003. Currently, approximately 4,000 registrations are completed per day through this system.

13. Indicate if the system is new or an existing one being modified: Existing

17. Does/Will the system collect, maintain (store), disseminate and/or pass through IIF within any database(s), record(s), file(s) or website(s) hosted by this system?: Yes

Note: This question seeks to identify any, and all, personal information associated with the system. This includes any IIF, whether or not it is subject to the Privacy Act, whether the individuals are employees, the public, research subjects, or business partners, and whether provided voluntarily or collected by mandate. Later questions will try to understand the character of the data and its applicability to the requirements under the Privacy Act or other legislation

Note: If no IIF is contained in the system, please answer questions 21, 23, 30, 31, 37, 50 and 54, then promote the PIA to the Sr. Privacy Official who will authorize the PIA.

If this system contains IIF, all remaining questions on the PIA Form Tabs must be completed prior to signature and promotion.

21. Is the system subject to the Privacy Act?: No

23. If the system shares or discloses IIF please specify with whom and for what purpose(s): Domestic and foreign food facilities (importing food into the United States) are required to register with FDA. Information required includes: name and address of facility; a U.S. agent if foreign facility; and emergency contact information in the event of a public health emergency. Upon accessing the site, a user is then able to register with the FDA. The majority of F-URLS users are account holders who utilize F-URLS to register their food facilities. The remaining users are comprised of FDA Personnel who are able to use the F-URLS system to gain access to the facilities’ registration information. Users are authenticated by the Accounts Management system, prior to accessing F-URLS. The registration and listing module (FFRM) is responsible for enforcing specific access rules for users. Additionally, the Account Management module uses the business rules and infrastructure implemented by the Enterprise Administrative Support Environment (EASE) in creating and administering FDA Personnel user accounts.

30. Please describe in detail: (1) the information the agency will collect, maintain, or disseminate; (2) why and for what purpose the agency will use the information; (3) In this description, indicate whether the information contains IIF; and (4) whether submission of personal information is voluntary or mandatory: F-URLS is a web-based system that will allow users worldwide to register with the FDA. The F-URLS system can be accessed through the FDA website 24/7/365. Upon accessing the site, a user is then able to register with the FDA. The majority of F-URLS users are account holders who utilize F-URLS to register their food facilities. The remaining users are comprised of FDA Personnel who are able to use the F-URLS system to gain access to the facilities’ registration information.

The data processed by the system is as follows:

(Italics implies information optional):

· User/Registrant’s Name and Facility Name (Parent Company Name if facility is a subsidiary)

· Facility Address (Parent Company Address if facility is a subsidiary)

· Preferred Mailing Address

· User’s email address

· User’s telephone number

· User’s fax number

· User’s answer to a verification question for password

· User’s password

· Emergency contact name

· Emergency contact title

· Emergency contact office phone

· Emergency Contact Cell Phone

· Emergency contact email address

· Facility trade name(s)

· Seasonal start/end dates

· Establishment type

· Storage type (appears if establishment type was Warehouse/Holding Facility)

· General Product Category, (appears if establishment type was NOT Warehouse/Holding Facility)

· Statement certifying that all information submitted is true and accurate

· Registration and PIN Numbers

· Firm Establishment Identifier (FEI) Numbers

· For foreign food facilities only: U.S. Agent name, address phone number, email address, and fax number.

To accomplish the functions mentioned above, F-URLS will initially include two modules: Food Facility Registration Module (FFRM) and the Account Management module. Additionally there are interfaces that will be described in part I of this section.

Account Management Module

The Account Management module handles the creation and administration of user accounts for access to all FDA registration and listing modules. For F-URLS, the module allows general system users who submit food registrations and updates to create and maintain secure login accounts (the terms “general system user” and “registrant” will be used interchangeably). Users will be authenticated by the Accounts Management system, defined below, prior to accessing F-URLS. The registration and listing module (FFRM) is responsible for enforcing specific access rules for users. Additionally, the Account Management module uses the business rules and infrastructure implemented by the Enterprise Administrative Support Environment (EASE) in creating and administering FDA Personnel user accounts. More information on the interface with EASE can be found in part I of this section. This avoids duplication when managing FDA user accounts and allows FDA users the ability to use their EASE account to access multiple registration and listing modules. More specific information pertaining to the Account Management Module and its use cases can be found in the System Requirements and Design Document (SRDD).

Food Facility Registration Module (FFRM)

The Food Facility Registration Module is essentially the element of the system that meets the requirements of the Bioterrorism Act of 2002, which required that FDA develop a system for registering food facilities. This module will allow users with accounts established through the Account Management module to register their food facility with the FDA. FFRM will prompt each registrant to enter information pertaining to their facility such as the address of the facility, the facility trade name, the establishment type, and the general product category.

In addition to gathering facility information, the FFRM can generate a request to process a mailing. There are four types of correspondence that would require mailing requests and they are as follows:

· Facility Return Receipt: Many registrants will already have Firm Establishment Identifier (FEI) numbers. For those that do not already possess and FEI number, the FFRM will process a mailing request to send them a new FEI number. The facility return receipt is sent to facilities that are assigned new Firm Establishment Identifier (FEI) numbers. The receipt must be returned and logged in to physically validate the facility’s address. Paper format only.

· Agent Return Receipt: Sent via email or letter to US Agents that are assigned new FEI numbers. A response must be returned and logged in to validate the Agent’s contact information.

· Registration Number and PIN: Sent via email or letter.

· Notification of Assignment: When the submitter is the US Agent for a foreign facility, a Notification of Assignment is sent to the facility. If the submitter is the Owner or Operator of a foreign facility, a Notification of Assignment is sent to the US Agent. Sent via email or letter. More specific information pertaining to FFRM and its use cases can be found in the SRDD.

Paper mailing requests are sent to the Paper Processing Facility; the interface to the Paper Processing Facility will be described in part I of this section.

31. Please describe in detail any processes in place to: (1) notify and obtain consent from the individuals whose IIF is in the system when major changes occur to the system (e.g., disclosure and/or data uses have changed since the notice at the time of the original collection); and (2) notify and obtain consent from individuals regarding what IIF is being collected from them and how the information will be used or shared: None

32. Does the system host a website?: Yes

37. Does the website have any information or pages directed at children under the age of thirteen?: No

50. Are there policies or guidelines in place with regard to the retention and destruction of IIF?: Yes

54. Briefly describe in detail how the IIF will be secured on the system using administrative, technical, and physical controls.: The information contained within FURLS is protected by several layers of administrative, physical, and technical controls in accordance with policies and regulations from the FDA, NIST, and OMB. All applicable security controls are reviewed on a periodic basis to ensure that they are implemented correctly, operating as intended, and producing the desired result of protecting all information within FURLS.

Nearly all aspects of daily FDA business operations are supported by some form of accountable personal property equipment.

A broad range of equipment items is managed in AMS, from testing devices to computer mainframes. Each asset item tracked in the system is a complete unit of equipment, durable in nature, with an expected service life of two or more years.

Requirements for AMS are defined in the Joint Financial Management Improvement Program (JFMIP) document, JFMIP-SR-00-4, Federal Financial Management System Requirements, Property Management System Requirements issued in October 2002. A vast array of detailed information about assets' users and contracts is required for effective property management. AMS provides a data repository of asset information as well as enabling asset security, inventorying, control, tracking, and movement.

21. Is the system subject to the Privacy Act?: Yes

23. If the system shares or discloses IIF please specify with whom and for what purpose(s): Firm data which may include Physician Names (as Firm entities) is contained within FACTS and used by many agencies within the FDA for many purposes including Firm inspections.

30. Please describe in detail: (1) the information the agency will collect, maintain, or disseminate; (2) why and for what purpose the agency will use the information; (3) In this description, indicate whether the information contains IIF; and (4) whether submission of personal information is voluntary or mandatory: The FACTS system contains data about commercial firms and their business relationships, data, FDA decisions, manpower, procedures, establishments, commerce, compliance, enforcements, products, consumer complaints, and FDA organizations.

There are Firms that are Physician entities represented by their Physician Name. These names may be considered IIF.

The FACTS database provides information on FDA performance to Congress and the OMB, and supports the Drug industry’s PDUFA initiatives. This system also presents rapid review of current and past fieldwork assignments, results, and time/cost to accomplish in the Agency mission areas of regulation, surveillance, and compliance.

The system provides support to the overall FDA’s mission for promoting and protecting the public health by helping safe and effective products reach the market, and monitoring products for continued safety after they are in use.

FACTS shares collected information with the following systems:

Lab data exchange between FACTS-OASIS (ORA), Data to FACTS Reports; OPAS (ORA), Assignment data to Turbo EIR (ORA),

Firm profile data to ORA/DCIQA (Intranet/Internet), Lab data to eLEXNET (ORA, CFSAN), Complaints & Adverse event data to CAERS (CFSAN),

Firm profile data feed to CDER,

Pre-approval inspection data exchange with EES (CDER),

Firm data to eDRLS (CDER),

Inspection data from MPRIS & CASS (CDRH)

The primary users of FACTS are FDA organizations (see above) that enter, update, retrieve, and otherwise manipulate the data contained in the FACTS database with the ORA Field Offices staff being the principal suppliers of FACTS data. The Centers then make extensive use of FACTS to communicate with the Field.

The secondary users of FACTS include organizations and individuals’ external to the FDA that contributes industry information to the FACTS database. These include consumers, health care providers, state partners, state public health agencies, and other Federal agencies.

FACTS has built-in controls to grant or modify access to the relevant data based on the user role and District he or she belongs to with FACTS end users having only ‘read only’ access to data from other district offices.

For the FACTS/eSAF system there are three primary security zones. The three zones are 1) the Internet, 2) the Service Area Network, or Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), and 3) the Intranet or “inner core”. This approach separates the functions of “border control,” “identification and authentication,” and “access control.”

31. Please describe in detail any processes in place to: (1) notify and obtain consent from the individuals whose IIF is in the system when major changes occur to the system (e.g., disclosure and/or data uses have changed since the notice at the time of the original collection); and (2) notify and obtain consent from individuals regarding what IIF is being collected from them and how the information will be used or shared: There are no processes currently in place.

32. Does the system host a website?: No

37. Does the website have any information or pages directed at children under the age of thirteen?: No

50. Are there policies or guidelines in place with regard to the retention and destruction of IIF?: Yes

54.

10. Provide an overview of the system: OPAS extracts employee accomplishment information from the ORA Field Accomplishments and Compliance Tracking System (FACTS). The extracted information refers to the employee's work activities by Operation, Firm, Location, Position Class, Program Code, and Number of Hours. This employee information is then counted and aggregated for each dimension (Operation, Location, Position Class, Program Code, Fiscal Year). Values are loaded into an Oracle Express multi-dimensional database for display to the OPAS users (Headquarters managers and analysts, and field managers).

Work plan information is collected from the MODEL files, but MODEL stores no data for an individual employee. In the future, MODEL will be replaced with Field Workforce Planning System (FWFPS). OPAS does not display public information (i.e., names of Firms). Although this information is collected through FACTS, OPAS displays only counts of Firms in various categories (by Establishment Type, Industry Code, Location, and Fiscal Year).

23. If the system shares or discloses IIF please specify with whom and for what purpose(s): N/A

30. Please describe in detail: (1) the information the agency will collect, maintain, or disseminate; (2) why and for what purpose the agency will use the information; (3) In this description, indicate whether the information contains IIF; and (4) whether submission of personal information is voluntary or mandatory: The information is collected initially from the Customs and Border Protection through their ACS system. All time spent reviewing commercial entry data, both on-screen and via paper entry documentation, are recorded as Entry Review. This includes checking regulatory status by accessing Center databases or FIARS, review of FD Form 2877s, Affirmation of Compliance Codes and their qualifiers, and review for data accuracy during Entry Review.

In addition, all time spent to make and record May Proceed decisions, regulatory recommendations such as Detention Requests (DTR) or Detention w/o Exam Requests (DER) and setting up Investigations exam/collect work assignments should be recorded as Entry Review. Any changes to transmitted data found to be inaccurate are made before setting up exam/sample assignments if possible. Such errors are then provided to the district personnel responsible for conducting filer evaluations.

In summary OASIS is a mission critical system that supports about 3500 FDA users throughout the US users on a 24/7 basis. It provides:

o An automated interface with US Customs Service systems

o Automated pre-screening processes

o Support for Entry-Reviewers and Compliance Officer review of regulated products, including computer-aided decision-making

o Maintenance of information for reporting decision-making

o Tracking and review of workflow

The OASIS information is shared with Dept. of Homeland Security, Customs and Border Protection (ACS), FACTS, ORADSS, and FDA Centers.

OASIS enables FDA to handle more efficiently and effectively the burgeoning volume of shipments (now over 8 million/year -- up by 50% in the last four years) of imported products, despite decreasing agency resources. It also maximizes the efficiency and accuracy of the import review process to ensure the safety of imports regulated by FDA on behalf of the American public.

OASIS automates a number of previously manual processes, provides more timely data and better data integrity to support decision-making. It also supports better workflow between the Entry Reviewers and Compliance Officers as well as an ability to monitor performance. No IIF information is being collected.

7. System Name: FDA ORA Mission Accomplishment and Regulatory Compliance Services (MARCS) Recall Enterprise System (RES)

9. System Point of Contact (POC): The System POC is the person to whom questions about the system and the responses to this PIA may be addressed: Carol Stone

10. Provide an overview of the system: The MARCS Recalls system provides centralized and standard safety and health alerts and regulated product recall information internally at the FDA. Alerts and recalls are an effective method of providing alert notices to the public, and for removing or correcting consumer products that are in violation of the laws administered by the FDA.

The MARCS Recalls Intranet system is FDA’s first agency wide Recall IT system. MARCS Recalls supports business processes for managed application reviews, workload management, investigative, compliance, and analytical operations, quality assurance and other critical initiatives (Manage and Conduct Compliance Work; Monitor Recall; Monitor Regulatory Actions; Negotiate Compliance Action; Support Regulatory Field Action; View Firm Information).

MARCS Recalls Intranet allows FDA personnel to create recall alerts, document recall actions, and to recommend a recall strategy. The system provides capabilities to close recalls when completed and to archive/retain recall records for future use. The system also provides a capability to post a subset of the recall information to the Internet (MARCS Recalls Internet) allowing the general public to view recall information. Although the posting of the data to the Internet database is active, the website accessibility is currently not made available for public access.

The MARCS Recalls Intranet application provides automated support for the daily operations of ORA Field Offices, Center Coordinators, and Headquarters to support the compliance and enforcement activities (Office of Enforcement) of FDA’s Office of Regulatory Affairs (ORA).

MARCS Recalls Intranet is an online system that also integrates with other strategic systems at the FDA to provide additional support and information for the recall. MARCS Recalls Intranet system integrates with the “FIRMS” data (holds shared information for the Field Accomplishment and Compliance Tracking System (FACTS); Operation Administrative System for Import Services (OASIS)), as read only, and allows for information to be stored with the recall record.

MARCS Recalls Intranet also allows for a precedent search for (CDRH) recalls requiring Health Hazard Evaluation (HHE) information. The MARCS Recalls Intranet supports approximately 50 to 100 concurrent users (per day). MARCS Recalls Intranet has approximately 512 FDA Intranet users that are recorded in the application users, across the U.S.

The FDA’s Office of Regulatory Affairs (ORA) is focused on assuring that manufacturing firms comply with FDA regulations in order to achieve consumer safety and health protection. The FDA’s Investigations Operations Manual 2003 states that “ORA’s mission is to achieve effective and efficient compliance of regulated products through high quality, science-based work that results in maximizing consumer protection.” Within ORA, the Recall Operations Staff (ROS) in the Office of Enforcement (OE), Division of Compliance Management and Operations (DCMO) serves as the Agency’s focal point for all safety and health alerts, and product recall activities. ROS is also responsible for providing policy, procedure, and direction to the FDA field and Center recall operations as dictated by the Food, Drug and Cosmetic (FD&C) Act.

13. Indicate if the system is new or an existing one being modified: Existing

17. Does/Will the system collect, maintain (store), disseminate and/or pass through IIF within any database(s), record(s), file(s) or website(s) hosted by this system?: Yes

Note: This question seeks to identify any, and all, personal information associated with the system. This includes any IIF, whether or not it is subject to the Privacy Act, whether the individuals are employees, the public, research subjects, or business partners, and whether provided voluntarily or collected by mandate. Later questions will try to understand the character of the data and its applicability to the requirements under the Privacy Act or other legislation

Note: If no IIF is contained in the system, please answer questions 21, 23, 30, 31, 37, 50 and 54, then promote the PIA to the Sr. Privacy Official who will authorize the PIA.

If this system contains IIF, all remaining questions on the PIA Form Tabs must be completed prior to signature and promotion.

21. Is the system subject to the Privacy Act?: No

23. If the system shares or discloses IIF please specify with whom and for what purpose(s): The MARCS Recalls Intranet system shares the data maintained in the database for recall events.ORADSS Business Objects / Reporting – To provide the FDA authorized users with reporting capabilities of the recall event data.PREDICT Data mining – to provide for various data mining information that a recall event may contain for analysis and/or corrective actions.Recall Operations Staff in Office of Enforcement / Division of Compliance Management and Operations (DCMO) – Centers for Recall Coordinators and Field operations for Field coordinators. FDA authorized users for view of recall data.

30. Please describe in detail: (1) the information the agency will collect, maintain, or disseminate; (2) why and for what purpose the agency will use the information; (3) In this description, indicate whether the information contains IIF; and (4) whether submission of personal information is voluntary or mandatory: Almost all of the data captured through the RES application is non-personal and can be grouped into the follow categories:

· Firm information

· Product information

· Center-specific information

· Recall Event information

· Recall Recommendation information

· Recall Classification information

· Recall Summary and Termination information

Personally Identifiable Information (PII) is limited to the minimum amount needed for effective communication in the system. This communication has two aspects, internal and external.

The internal aspect of the system uses the names and email addresses of the individual FDA employees who create or work with the records in the RES application. These needed pieces of PII, the employee’s name and email address, come from the FDA’s FACTS database, which is accessed through the individual’s RES login codes. The user’s name and email provides access to the user’s profile information record in the RES database. These records contain information regarding each user’s role, and the FDA Center with responsibility for the over sight of the recall activity.

Coordinator names are also displayed or included for data collection needs of the recall event, work flow processing, and for the application to submit proper notifications. In addition, comment fields are available within the system in which the users will add necessary information, when applicable, in order to process or ensure information is provided for “recall” requirements. In addition to FDA employees, pieces of PII are also captured in regards to the reporting company, the name(s) of the company point(s) of contact, their email addresses, and company mailing addresses. These pieces of information are provided to FDA by the reporting company(s) for means of communication.

The External use of PII is that the company involved in the recall provides the name and email address of a company representative so the public can make enquiries regarding the recall.

31. Please describe in detail any processes in place to: (1) notify and obtain consent from the individuals whose IIF is in the system when major changes occur to the system (e.g., disclosure and/or data uses have changed since the notice at the time of the original collection); and (2) notify and obtain consent from individuals regarding what IIF is being collected from them and how the information will be used or shared: Due to the IIF information maintained in the MARCS Recalls system, the choice is based on user acceptance reviews of any requirements and design of the system and as part of the request for user access to the application. In addition, regulations and policies that support processing of recalls data provide guidance for information being displayed or recorded.

User Request Forms for user request to gain access to the application.

Individuals usually notify the Help Desk and provide user request form for coordinators that need to be provided access. Written and email.

Users are notified verbally during coordinator conference calls and or in writing via email if changes to the system.

32. Does the system host a website?: Yes

37. Does the website have any information or pages directed at children under the age of thirteen?: No

50. Are there policies or guidelines in place with regard to the retention and destruction of IIF?: Yes

54. Briefly describe in detail how the IIF will be secured on the system using administrative, technical, and physical controls.: The information contained within RES is protected by several layers of administrative, physical, and technical controls in accordance with policies and regulations from the FDA, NIST, and OMB. All applicable security controls are reviewed on a periodic basis to ensure that they are implemented correctly, operating as intended, and producing the desired result of protecting all information within RES.

7. System Name: FDA ORA Turbo Establishment Inspection Report (EIR)

9. System Point of Contact (POC). The System POC is the person to whom questions about the system and the responses to this PIA may be addressed: Alex Schultz

10. Provide an overview of the system: The Turbo EIR Field Agent application provides a standardized database of citations, and assists the investigator in preparation of the FDA Form 483 and the Establishment Inspection Report (EIR).

FDA field investigators annually conduct approximately 17,000 establishment inspections. A Food Drug and Cosmetic Act requirement of the inspectional process is to report (in writing) certain types of adverse observations to the management of the inspected firm at the conclusion of the inspection. About forty percent of all inspections result in the issuance of an FDA 483. The FDA 483 is the written report listing the adverse observations observed by the investigator.

The investigators must also generate a comprehensive narrative for each inspection. These narratives are known as Establishment Inspection Reports (EIRs) and are commonly prepared with word processing software. Turbo EIR Field Agent provides onscreen guidance to the investigator for preparation of the EIR. Turbo on the Web is a web browser-based application that allows FDA users to retrieve FDA 483 and EIR documents via the FDA intranet.

13. Indicate if the system is new or an existing one being modified: Existing

17. Does/Will the system collect, maintain (store), disseminate and/or pass through IIF within any database(s), record(s), file(s) or website(s) hosted by this system?: Yes

Note: This question seeks to identify any, and all, personal information associated with the system. This includes any IIF, whether or not it is subject to the Privacy Act, whether the individuals are employees, the public, research subjects, or business partners, and whether provided voluntarily or collected by mandate. Later questions will try to understand the character of the data and its applicability to the requirements under the Privacy Act or other legislation

Note: If no IIF is contained in the system, please answer questions 21, 23, 30, 31, 37, 50 and 54, then promote the PIA to the Sr. Privacy Official who will authorize the PIA.

If this system contains IIF, all remaining questions on the PIA Form Tabs must be completed prior to signature and promotion.

21. Is the system subject to the Privacy Act?: Yes

23. If the system shares or discloses IIF please specify with whom and for what purpose(s): The information is shared with various compliance/management operational divisions (such as Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition, Center for Devices and Radiological Health, Center for Veterinary Medicine) in the FDA that perform enforcement, analysis, and trending.

30. Please describe in detail: (1) the information the agency will collect, maintain, or disseminate; (2) why and for what purpose the agency will use the information; (3) In this description, indicate whether the information contains IIF; and (4) whether submission of personal information is voluntary or mandatory: Turbo EIR Field Agent gathers data on the specific violations observed during the inspection and proceedings that transpire during the course of the inspection. Those data (and the FDA 483 items themselves) are then uploaded to a central database where they are available in the FDA for analysis and trending. The EIRs are also available online. The standardization inherent in Turbo EIR reduces inconsistency and lack of uniformity in the FDA 483 process.

Specific personally identifiable information collected by Turbo EIR is names of establishment employees that participated in the FDA inspection. The collection of these names is to identify the most responsible person at the establishment and to note how establishment employees participated in the conduct of the inspection. These names are not used by the Turbo EIR system for data searches. The information is provided voluntarily.

31. Please describe in detail any processes in place to: (1) notify and obtain consent from the individuals whose IIF is in the system when major changes occur to the system (e.g., disclosure and/or data uses have changed since the notice at the time of the original collection); and (2) notify and obtain consent from individuals regarding what IIF is being collected from them and how the information will be used or shared: Assigned an inspection, the investigator travels to the establishment to perform it. If the investigator observes adverse conditions they are linked to the FDA citation database in Turbo EIR Field Agent. Within Turbo EIR Field Agent the investigator is then able to provide specific information relating to each observation. When all observations and specifics are recorded Turbo EIR Field Agent prints the FDA 483. The investigator then meets with the management of the firm and explains the adverse observations recorded. At this point the firm’s management has an opportunity to have their comments added to the FDA 483. At the end of the management meeting the investigator presents the final FDA 483 (with comments) to the firm’s management and the inspection is complete. Afterwards the investigator using Turbo EIR Field Agent authors the Establish Inspection Report (EIR). An EIR is created for each inspection, even if a FDA 483 is not issued. The EIR is a comprehensive report of the inspection and contains information needed to support the Violation Letter process and of interest to FDA management. The above activites directly support the FDA's responsability to regulate food, drug and devices.

32. Does the system host a website?: Yes

37. Does the website have any information or pages directed at children under the age of thirteen?: No

50. Are there policies or guidelines in place with regard to the retention and destruction of IIF?: Yes

54. Briefly describe in detail how the IIF will be secured on the system using administrative, technical, and physical controls.: The information contained within TurboEIR is protected by several layers of administrative, physical, and technical controls in accordance with policies and regulations from the FDA, NIST, and OMB. All applicable security controls are reviewed on a periodic basis to ensure that they are implemented correctly, operating as intended, and producing the desired result of protecting all information within TurboEIR.

23. If the system shares or discloses IIF please specify with whom and for what purpose(s): N/A

30. Please describe in detail: (1) the information the agency will collect, maintain, or disseminate; (2) why and for what purpose the agency will use the information; (3) In this description, indicate whether the information contains IIF; and (4) whether submission of personal information is voluntary or mandatory: The PDUFA Tracking system is comprised of the following seven (7) components:

1) Animal Components Database (ACD) points to Investigational Related Applications (IRAs) and BLAs, then tries to determine animal components in the product; from BSE regulations.

2) CBER Regulatory Meetings Tracking System (CRMTS) fulfills the requirements of FDAMA/PDUFA to track industry's requests for formal meetings with the Center and to capture the information necessary to measure performance.

3) Document Tracking System (DTS) fulfills PDUFA requirements for locational tracking of regulatory submissions (interfaced with the RMS-DATS investment).

4) Regulatory Management Systems (RMS) Lot Release System (LRS) supports the FDA Lot Release Program for biologic products. CBER is required to oversee sample lots in support of licensure and for purposes of product approval and the redistribution of lots for regulated products that require lot release and surveillance (21CFR601.2.c). The system conforms to the RMS model and interfaces with the RMS/BLA system as well as the Electronic Document Room (EDR). The nature of Lot Release requires that LRS be flexible enough to allow the assignment of a Lot to a Product/ Establishment relationship that may not be licensed or pending. The system consists of Data Entry/Update, Report, and Maintenance forms.

5) Regulatory Management Systems (RMS) Document Accountability and Tracking System (DATS) supports the CBER Network Control Center (NCC) staff with receipt and routing of drug Tracking System (RMS-DATS) manufacturer submissions to reviewers and incoming and outgoing communications. These include submissions related to IRAs, IDEs, BLAs, NDAs, 510(k)s, PMAs, and labeling submissions. Functionality includes the logging of shipment information, data entry of regulatory application information, support for document routing, circulation, inventory controls and management, and the generation of reports and queries. RMS-DATS interfaces with other CBER systems for the tracking of Licensing Applications, pre-market submissions, electronic submissions and related documents, and a system for the maintenance of valid person names and associated information. DATS, P2P and CIAD are all logically connected to the DATS data. CIAD is a subsystem of DATS, which tracks non-regulatory documents being routed P2P tracks login IDs and where and when documents are being routed.

6) GUI Biologics Regulatory Management System (GBRMS) is the legacy system that was replaced by RMS-BLA. Although most of the data have been migrated to RMS-BLA, it is still essential for review staff and management to have this legacy system available in read-only mode for the foreseeable future. The software running the user interface of the legacy system and the operating system that runs the software have been upgraded to current versions. No further development is anticipated at this time.

7) CBER On-Line Analytical Processing (OLAP) is a small pilot using Business Objects against the product business area of RMS/BLA for ad hoc reporting, including GUI and web-based reporting and querying against RMS/BLA and RMS/LRS data. OLAP does not connect to the FDA CBER network and it is dependent on the CBER Database.

No IIF will be collected by by the system.

31. Please describe in detail any processes in place to: (1) notify and obtain consent from the individuals whose IIF is in the system when major changes occur to the system (e.g., disclosure and/or data uses have changed since the notice at the time of the original collection); and (2) notify and obtain consent from individuals regarding what IIF is being collected from them and how the information will be used or shared: N/A

10. Provide an overview of the system: Product Quality Registration (PQR) is comprised of the following subsystems:

Biologics Compliance Information System - BCIS is comprised of modules that are used to support various CBER Office of Compliance and Biologics Quality (OCBQ) activities. One module tracks and records data about BPD reports, to include electronic Biological Product Deviation Reporting (eBPDR) and non-blood reports. Other modules track and record data about recalls alerts (Recalls), recall tracking (RTS), and enforcement actions (ENFACT). In addition, there is a module to show the Compliance History of a facility. As of May 2007, BCIS will automatically exchange recall data with the ORA MARCS RES system.

Electronic Biological Product Deviation Reporting – eBPDR is an Internet form that feeds into Biologics Compliance Information System (BCIS). It is used by manufacturers to enter error reports. Data entered into eBPDR is then loaded into BCIS.

Human Cell and Tissue Establishment Registration System – HCTERS captures and reports on facilities that have registered with FDA/CBER in compliance with various CFR and Federal Register Notifications for Human Cells, Tissues, and Cellular and Tissue-Based Products Establishment Registration

Electronic Human Cell and Tissue Establishment Registration System Internet Query - Internet interface for HCTERS. It is used by manufacturers to electronically register biological human parts. Data from eHCTERS is stored into HCTERS. There is a publicly available Internet query for HCTERS.

Blood Establishment Registration – BER provides access to quality information and improved efficiency in performing regulatory-mandated registration of blood establishments.

Electronic Blood Establishment Registration – eBER is a internet interface form for the Blood Establishment Registration (BER) System. It allows establishment that deal with blood products to electronically register the type of blood products they deal with and what functions they perform on the blood products. This data is then transferred into BER database.

CBER Online – Is the gateway, which needs a username and password, to get into online applications eBER, eHCTERS and eBPDR.

Lot Distribution Database (LDD) – LDD collects data submitted by manufactures under 21 CFR 600.81 and used by OBE office for analysis and research.

· Blood Logging and Tracking (BLT);

· National Xenotransplantation Database (NXD).

These two components are not interrelated and they are grouped together based on the guidance from the Capital Planning and Investment Control (CPIC) side.

BLT is the database used to track pre-market approval applications (PMA), pre-market reports (PMR), supplements, product development protocols (PDP), pre-market notifications, New Drug Application (NDA), and Abbreviated New Drug Applications (ANDA). NDA and ANDA will be removed from the BLT in November 2009. Additionally, BLT is used to maintain information related to the status and review progress of applications for the approval of devices and products related to blood screening, transfusion, and other analogous products. Final approval letters are stored in the Network Control Center (NCC) and BLT information system. Other related documents are stored in BLT using Documentum Workspace 3.2, Adobe Acrobat Exchange 2.1, and Microsoft Word 2000.

Xenotransplantation is any procedure that involves the transplantation, implantation, or infusion into a human recipient of either (a) live cells, tissues, or organs from a nonhuman animal source, or (b) human body fluids, cells, tissues or organs that have had ex vivo contact with live non-human animal cells, tissues or organs. NXD collects seven main categories of information:
