  • The internal structure of the Food Products Inspectorate (FPI) within FDA's OII
  • OII's role and responsibilities for inspecting human foods at FDA, including examples of frontline activities
  • How the FPI is equipped to facilitate outbreak investigations and recalls
  • Priority work plans assigned to FPI in 2025, and how this work will be accomplished
  • In light of reduced funding for state inspectoral partners, how FPI can work with state public health agencies to ensure that priority inspections are carried out How OII is working to help restore confidence in the food supply among U.S. consumers
  • New technologies and platforms being leveraged by OII to advance operations both internally and structurally, and how they are benefitting OII operations and functions.
