Description of Work:

Introduction

On June 30, 2016, the Minister of Health announced that the federal government would advance new regulations to help address the issue of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in the veterinary drug context. One of the regulatory proposals will introduce an easier way to access low-risk veterinary health products (VHPs) online and requires the creation of a publicly available web application.

Health Canada requires a Contractor to develop an end-to-end solution for this capability, which also aligns with the Government of Canada’s web renewal initiative and standards by August 1, 2017.

Objective

The Contractor must design, develop, and test a Web Application that allows sponsors to submit an application to add a substance and submit notification for access to market in compliance with the Regulations Amending the Food and Drug Regulations (Veterinary Drugs — Antimicrobial Resistance) and allow the public to report Adverse Drug Reactions associated with a Veterinary Health Product. Health Canada will host and manage the completed solution within its own secure environment.
