[[ROEB-Transformation|ROEB Transformation]] is a movement to evolve the Regulatory Operations and Enforcement Branch (ROEB) at [[Health Canada]] into the digital era, by all employees for all Canadians.
[[ROEB-Transformation|ROEB Transformation]] is a movement to evolve the Regulatory Operations and Enforcement Branch (ROEB) at [[Health Canada]] into the digital era, by all employees for all Canadians.
Today’s regulatory landscape is complex and continually evolving, through rapid scientific innovation, technological advances and global supply chains. ROEB is committed to modernizing and transforming its compliance and enforcement approach to become more agile, assertive, consistent, innovative, proactive and risk-based. [[ROEB-Digital Transformation|Digital Transformation]] is large part of this commitment, supported by the [[Multi-year C&E Transformation]] plan, which directs and coordinates transformation efforts across ROEB’s compliance and enforcement programs.

There are several projects testing [[wikipedia:Natural_language_processing|Natural Language Processing]] (NLP) to support uses cases within ROEB. [[Project Cipher]] is a prime example of this technology to support the inspection programs. [[Project Cipher]] began as a [https://www.gcpedia.gc.ca/wiki/Health_Canada_Innovation_and_Experimentation Solutions Fund] project to test the technology applied to inspection observations to create an automated process to assign risk to each observation and other business process requirements critical within many inspection programs (for example: assignment of "Standard Lines"). [[Cyclops|Project Cyclops]] also uses NLP to interpret and classify extracted text from Natural Health Product labels.

Project [[Cyclops]], a ROEB Solutions Fund project, leverages computer vision to detect and interpret text in images via optical character recognition. This technology supports checking instances of non-compliance in natural health project labels examined by inspectors.

This technology supports checking instances of non-compliance in natural health project labels examined by inspectors. Other projects like [[Project Drab|Drab]] are also exploring computer vision to support the tobacco label inspection process.

POD-TBI is currently leveraging low-code development to build software applications faster by reducing the need to code by as much as 95%. With a low-code application development platform, one can use visual development tools—such as drag-and-drop modelers and point-and-click interface creation—to enable the rapid creation, deployment, and maintenance of powerful business apps. By reducing development time, projects can be delivered at significantly lower costs. [https://appian.com/ Appian] is the platform currently being employed to transform business applications used by five inspection programs within ROEB.

====Robotic Process Automation ([[RPA]])====
Government of Canada’s digital transformation initiatives are enabled by Robotic Process Automation as it can be applied to many manual, time consuming and repetitive processes without heavy or complex integration & development efforts, enabling departments and agencies to quickly and cost effectively deliver business efficiencies. Whether processes within finance, HR, IT, or in front line programs and service delivery business lines, RPA provides an automation platform that is very re-usable across the enterprise, is easy to use, very open and highly scalable and secure. ROEB is currently piloting several options to leverage RPA.
