Abstract: As directed by Executive Order 14001, The National Strategy for a Resilient Public Health Supply Chain (The National Strategy) provides a strategic approach to design, build, and sustain a long-term capability in the United States to manufacture supplies for future pandemics and biological threats. The Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response at the Department of Health and Human Services is leading an interagency team in implementing the National Strategy and is requesting a generic clearance for purposes of implementation to: gain a better understanding of the public health supply chain; develop future strategic goals and recommendations for building immediate and long-term resilience through increased visibility, agility, and robustness in the public health supply chain to prepare for and mitigate future public health emergencies; and to ensure ASPR, HHS, and the broader U.S. government have current data and information to inform program and policy decision-making. Formative research and assessment are the main objectives of the activities included in this clearance. The participants will include, but not be limited to, SLTTs, trade groups and associations, mixed cross-sector audiences, non-governmental organizations, manufacturers, academia, healthcare providers and facilities, and local communities, labor unions, workforce training providers, organizations, and state and local workforce boards.
