Revised FY 2002 Targets |
Explanation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
FOODS |
||||
|
11001 |
Complete first action on 65% of food and color additive petitions within 360 days of receipt. |
Revised |
Complete first action on 60% of food and color additive petitions within 360 days of receipt |
Target revised to a slightly lower level because of implementation of the Food Contact Substance Premarket Notification Program which changed the way these applications are submitted. Fewer but more complex applications are now expected. |
|
11002 |
Reduce the number of remaining overdue food and color additive petitions by 50%. |
Dropped |
This backlog goal was dropped and assumed under the primary review goal for food and color additive petitions. (goal 11001) |
|
|
11025 |
Respond to 95% of notifications for dietary supplements containing "new dietary ingredients" within 75 days. |
Unchanged |
||
|
11003 |
Complete processing of 85% of GRAS notifications within the time frame established by the final rule. |
Dropped |
This goal was dropped because there is no final rule and no statutory authority for this goal. It is strictly voluntary. |
|
|
11034 |
Complete review of 100% of premarket notifications for food contact substances within 120 days. |
Revised |
Review 95 percent of premarket notifications for food contact substances in the receipt cohort of FY 2002 within the statutory time limit (120 days). |
Target was lowered to 95% because 100% was an unrealistic target. |
|
11035 |
Issue final rule to require premarket notification for bioengineered foods. |
Dropped |
The comments from the proposed rule have been received and analyzed, but no reaction has been received from the department or administration so publishing this in FY 2002 is unrealistic. However, this goal can be accomplished in FY 2003. |
|
|
11010 |
Achieve adoption of the Food Code by at least one state agency in 28 states in the USA. |
Unchanged |
||
|
11020 |
Increase the percentage of high-risk domestic food establishment inspected once every year at least 95%. |
Unchanged |
||
|
11011 |
Assure that FDA inspections of domestic food establishments result in a high rate of conformance (at least 90%) with FDA requirements. |
Dropped |
This goal was dropped from each program because it was confusing and not a useful measure for performance. (See the context section for this goal in the Performance Plan for more details.) |
|
|
11021.02 |
Increase the number of import exams of food products to 60,000. |
Dropped |
Import exams are now measured by a new goal (goal 11036) which measures physical exams only and not the combination of physical and analytical exams like this one. |
|
|
11028 |
Increase to 10 the number of audits and assessments of foreign food safety systems, with an emphasis on high volume exporters to the U.S. |
Dropped |
This goal was dropped because resources are not available to conduct the in-depth audits necessary to assess the efficacy of the entire foreign food safety system. |
|
|
11027 |
Maintain current level of monitoring for pesticides and environmental contaminants in foods through the collection and analysis of a targeted cohort of 8,000+ samples. |
Unchanged |
||
|
11036 |
None |
New Goal |
Increase food import surveillance by hiring 300 new investigators and analysts who will increase the number of physical exams 97% (24,000 exams) and conduct sample analyses on products with suspect histories. |
Goal added to reflect additional Agency Counter Terrorism efforts developed in response to the September 11 terrorism attack. |
|
11037 |
None |
New Goal |
Extend import coverage to an additional 45 ports that handle significant quantities of FDA-regulated products. |
Goal added to reflect additional Agency Counter Terrorism efforts developed in response to the September 11 terrorism attack. |
|

||
|
12020 |
Inspect registered human drug manufacturers, repackers, relabelers and medical gas repackers. (26%) |
Revised |
Inspect registered human drug manufacturers, repackers, relabelers and medical gas repackers. (20%) |
The target decreased due to problems resulting from the transition to a new database (FIS to FACTS) in FY 2000, which caused some adjustments in the way inventory and inspectional coverage were calculated. FY 2001 actual performance data was 19%, not the expected 26%. |
|
12006 |
Assure that FDA inspections of domestic drug manufacturing and repacking establishments result in a high rate of conformance (at least 90%) with FDA requirements. |

|
13007 |
Assure that FDA inspections of domestic biologics manufacturing, repacking and blood banks establishments result in a high rate of conformance (at least 90%) with FDA requirements |
Dropped |
This goal was dropped from each program because it was confusing and not a useful measure for performance. (See the context section for this goal in the Performance Plan for more details.) |
|
|
13008 |
Maintain the percentage of plasma fractionator establishments in compliance with CGMPs at 80%. |
Dropped |
This goal was dropped for two reasons: 1) Plasma fractionator establishment compliance with CGMP' s is beyond the control of FDA. FDA can determine their CGMP compliance through inspections, but it cannot maintain their compliance for them. 2) The biennial inspection goal for biologic establishments (Goal 13012) includes inspections of plasma fractionator establishments. |
|
|
13012 |
Meet the biennial inspection statutory requirement by inspecting 50% of registered blood banks, source plasma operations and biologics manufacturing establishments. |
Unchanged |
||
|
ANIMAL DRUGS AND FEEDS |

Unchanged |
||
|
14017 |

Revised |
Review and act on 50% of NADAs/ANADAs within 180 days of receipt. |
The goal was revised from 80% to 50% because the Center has changed priorities and redirected resources from new reviews to clear the large backlog of animal drug applications. Decreasing the backlog was necessary in order to move CVM back on track towards meeting statutory and stakeholder requirements for new animal drug application review. |
|
14019 |
None |
New Goal |
Reduce pending overdue Animal Drug applications by 15%. |
This goal was added to reflect the center' s commitment to reducing its backlog. Decreasing the backlog was necessary in order to move CVM back on track towards meeting statutory and stakeholder requirements for new animal drug application review. |

Unchanged |
||
|
14004 |
Assure that FDA inspections of domestic animal drug and feed manufacturing establishments and repackers result in at least 90% conformance. |
Dropped |
This goal was dropped from each program because it was confusing and not a useful measure for performance. (See the context section for this goal in the Performance Plan for more details.) |
|
|
14005 |
Increase isolate testing rate for Salmonella in the National Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring System (NARMS) at 12,000. |
Revised |
Maintain isolate testing rate for Salmonella in the National Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring System (NARMS) at 12,000. |
|
|
14006 |
Assure 100% compliance with the BSE feed regulation through inspections and compliance actions. |
Revised |
Conduct targeted BSE inspections of 100% of all known renderers and feed mills handling prohibited material. |
The scope of this goal was revised from "Assuring compliance" to "Conducting inspections" although the target of 100% remains the same. Realistically, assuring 100% compliance is too difficult to measure or attain. |
|

||
|
15018 |
Assure FDA inspections of domestic medical device manufacturing establishments result in at least 90 percent conformance. |

Dropped |
This goal was included in the FY 02 CJ by mistake. It was intended to be a placeholder while a more specific goal was developed for this important issue, but it was inadvertently left in the goal table after the idea was dropped. |
|
|
