FDA Approves Final MDIC Report on MedAccred’s Sterilization Audit and Accreditation Program

03/01/2025

On December 13, 2024, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) notified the Medical Device Innovation Consortium (MDIC) of their final approval of the MDIC Report on the MedAccred Accreditation and Audit Program for Contract Sterilizers (Final Report). FDA inspections of firms, such as contract sterilizers, are pursuant to Title 21-Food and Drugs, Chapter 9 – Federal Food, Drug, and Devices, Part A-Drugs and Devices, Section 21 USC 360: Registration of producers of drugs or devices, Subsection (h) Inspections.1 The FDA notification is the culmination of a pilot study initiated by the Performance Review Institute (PRI) in 2023 in collaboration with MDIC and the FDA to evaluate PRI’s MedAccred Sterilization Audit and Accreditation Program of contract sterilizers. The agency confirmed that MedAccred is as an acceptable audit approach that may be leveraged for regulatory purposes as well as supplier oversight.

Carbon Neutrality, Reduction and Offset � Aviation Solutions in the 21st Century (SAE Paper 2021-01-0039)

1300403/16/2021

Begun in 2016, the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) was developed and agreed by International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) 191 Member States. The aviation industry has its own offsetting scheme to measure aviation emissions and carbon offsetting and it has become the first industry sector which leads the world making commitments to reduce emissions. CORSIA and the Airport Carbon Accreditation are programs that impose carbon management obligations on the aviation industry. The training product to be presented, will clarify for the first time how to go beyond mere compliance and exceed the carbon reduction requirements of these instruments by achieving carbon neutrality in operations, to decrease costs, boost revenue, productivity and customer experience for airlines, airports and ground service providers. The methodology that will be explained for achieving carbon neutrality involves gains in operational efficiency and the use of
