Abstract: FDA seeks to engage in research to analyze and better understand perspectives on challenges and opportunities faced by outsourcing facilities as they attempt to supply safe, high-quality drug products needed by patients. The Agency currently lacks this information and cannot obtain it from other sources. An electronic survey will be administered to approximately 80 outsourcing facilities to gather information regarding the challenges an opportunities these entities face. The results of this research will be used by FDA to develop a comprehensive understanding of the outsourcing facility sector, its challenges, and opportunities for advancement. The information will be essential to help identify knowledge and information gaps, operational barriers, and views on interactions with FDA. The research results will inform FDA's future approaches to communication, education, training, and other engagement with outsourcing facilities to address challenges and support advancement of the industry in its ability to produce high-quality drug products that are safe for patients.
