BUILDING AN INTEGRATED LABORATORY SYSTEM TO ADVANCE THE SAFETY OF HUMAN AND ANIMAL FOOD

BUILDING AN INTEGRATED LABORATORY SYSTEM TO ADVANCE THE SAFETY OF HUMAN AND ANIMAL FOOD - PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT THE PURPOSE OF THIS PROPOSAL FROM THE ASSOCIATION OF PUBLIC HEALTH LABORATORIES (APHL) IS TO SUPPORT AND ENHANCE THE CAPABILITIES OF STATE HUMAN AND ANIMAL FOOD (HAF) TESTING LABORATORIES THAT ENGAGE IN SURVEILLANCE AND RESPONSE ACTIVITIES ASSOCIATED WITH FOODBORNE HAZARDS, INCLUDING FOODBORNE OUTBREAK INVESTIGATIONS. APHL WILL: • BUILD A COMPETENT HAF LABORATORY WORKFORCE BY DEVELOPING AND DELIVERING TRAININGS, WORKSHOPS, SEMINARS AND OTHER EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS, AND A BIOINFORMATICS FELLOWSHIP • INTEGRATE THE HAF LABORATORY SYSTEM BY PLANNING AND HOSTING HIGH QUALITY CONFERENCES AND MEETINGS RELATED TO THE LFFM DISCIPLINES, THE GENOMETRAKR NETWORK, AND NARMS • MANAGE SUPPORT PROGRAMS FOR ISO/IEC 17025:2017 ACCREDITATION BY PROVIDING DIRECT TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO FERN LABORATORIES AND TO NON-FDA FUNDED HAF LABORATORIES • SUPPORT LABORATORY INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND ORA DATA EXCHANGE IMPLEMENTATION • ENHANCE AND MAXIMIZE HAF LABORATORY PARTICIPATION IN THE GENOMETRAKR NETWORK AND THE PARTNERSHIP FOR FOOD PROTECTION IT WORKGROUP AND LABORATORY SCIENCE WORKGROUP • PROMOTE INFORMATION SHARING BETWEEN STRATEGIC PARTNERS, IMPROVE QUALITY ASSURANCE EFFORTS AND BUILD MUTUAL RELIANCE IN AN INTEGRATED FOOD SAFETY SYSTEM • UTILIZE A DIVERSITY PROCUREMENT STRATEGY FOR GOODS AND SERVICES RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT THROUGH THESE EFFORTS, WE WILL MEET INDIVIDUAL LABORATORY AND BROAD-BASED TRAINING NEEDS AROUND ISO/IEC 17025:2017 LABORATORY ACCREDITATION, LABORATORY PROCEDURES, DATA TRANSFER (TO NCBI AND FDA DATA SYSTEMS), DOCUMENT CONTROL, QUALITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS, CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT, SAMPLE COLLECTION, AND RISK ASSESSMENT. WE WILL PLAN AND HOST FORUMS FOR LFFM FOOD TESTING LABORATORIES AND GENOMETRAKR LABORATORIES. WE WILL FOSTER COLLABORATIONS WITH THE PARTNERSHIP FOR FOOD PROTECTION AROUND SCIENTIFIC AND DATA SHARING GOALS. MEASUREMENT OF SUCCESS WILL BE AGAINST STATED METRICS, REFINED IN CONSULTATION WITH THE FUNDING AGENCY. AS THE NON-PROFIT ASSOCIATION REPRESENTING STATE AND LOCAL LABORATORIES THAT CONDUCT HAF TESTING FOR OVER 50 YEARS, APHL CAN EFFICIENTLY ADVANCE THE GOALS OF THIS COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT. LEVERAGING OUR EXPERIENCE WILL BETTER POSITION FDA TO WORK IN PARTNERSHIP WITH STATE AND LOCAL AUTHORITIES TO BUILD AN INTEGRATED FOOD SAFETY SYSTEM AND ACHIEVE NATIONAL PUBLIC HEALTH GOALS.

2024 LABORATORY FLEXIBLE FUNDING MODEL MEETING - FOA PAR-23-072 2024 LABORATORY FLEXIBLE FUNDING MODEL MEETING SUMMARY APHL HAS THE EXPERIENCE AND COMPETENCE TO EFFECTIVELY HOST A HIGH-QUALITY LABORATORY FLEXIBLE FUNDING MODEL (LFFM) MEETING IN THE SOUTH-CENTRAL U.S. IN FEBRUARY OF 2024 USING THE APPROACH DESCRIBED IN THE PROPOSAL. THIS MEETING WILL ALLOW SCIENTISTS WHO ARE FUNDED THROUGH FDA'S LFFM BUT LOCATED ACROSS THE U.S. TO INTERACT WITH FDA FUNDING PARTNERS AND OTHER LEADERS TO EXCHANGE THE LATEST INFORMATION RELATED TO TESTING UNDER THE CHEMISTRY, MICROBIOLOGY, AND RADIOCHEMISTRY LFFM TRACKS. INTERACTIONS OF THIS NATURE IN THE SETTING OF THE LFFM MEETING WILL ENABLE PUBLIC HEALTH AND REGULATORY OFFICIALS TO IMPROVE AVAILABLE TESTING DATA ON FOOD CONTAMINATION AND REDUCE FOODBORNE ILLNESSES AND DEATHS. THIS PURPOSE ALIGNS WITH ORA'S COMMITMENT TO BUILD INTEGRATED LABORATORY CAPACITY AND CAPABILITY AND SUPPORT THE GENERATION OF DEFENSIBLE STATE DATA FOR REGULATORY ACTION.
