UK Streamlines Regulatory Pathway to Accelerate Market Access by 3–6 Months.

The FDA has announced FDA PreCheck— a program to boost domestic drug (API) manufacturing.
The program includes two phases:
1.Facility Readiness Phase – Early FDA input on facility design, quality systems, and operational maturity through a Type V DMF.
2.Application Submission Phase – Enhanced support during drug application development, including pre-submission meetings and feedback on the CMC section.
With only 11% of API makers based in the U.S., this two-phase initiative offers early FDA engagement and faster reviews to help bring facilities online quicker and more predictably.

For pharma manufacturers, this means:
• Reduced regulatory risk
• Accelerated CMC timelines
• Stronger U.S. supply chain positioning
There will be a public meeting on Sept 30 where the FDAPreCheck draft framework will be presented and discussed — a key chance for pharma industry professionals to get to know more and help shape the future of U.S. pharma manufacturing.
