Objective
- Identify business processes for Inter Division and Inter Branch operations that would benefit from the development of workflows that manage and streamline the approval process of laboratory documentation and information. Identify centralized information storage and retrieval systems for daily and operational activities for the division. Create a secure encrypted method of document and data transfer between NPPTL and Manufacturers, Stakeholders, and Customers. The Pilot SDN Program information and results will then be transferred to NIOSH – Associate Director for Informatics for dissemination and use across NIOSH.
