Rx-360 Announces Approval as a Pilot Center of Excellence for the APEC Regulatory Harmonization Steering Committee
Economies are adversely impacted by the international movement of substandard and falsified medical products. As the medical products industry has become more globalized and specialized, APEC economies are faced with many challenges in keeping citizens healthy, while ensuring that access to legitimate products is not disrupted. To address this issue, the Roadmap for Global Medical Product Quality and Supply Chain Security project (Roadmap) was developed. The Roadmap was a multi-year effort commissioned by APEC with oversight by the Regulatory Harmonization Steering Committee (RHSC). It became a priority work area (PWA) in APEC, bringing together regulators, industry members, academics, and other stakeholders from across the APEC economies, and EU, Africa , and other parts of South America . This work culminated in the development of the Supply Chain Security Toolkit (Toolkit) in 2017. The Toolkit contains training materials intended to educate regulators, industry members, and others on a particular part of the supply chain, including its best practices, guidance documents, etc. The Toolkit includes ten (10) work streams, covering the entire supply chain and life cycle of medical products. This Toolkit will be the focus of educational workshops and relevant training designed and offered by Rx-360 as part of the pilot CoE.
