Project Sparrow is one of ROEB's Transformation initiative which started in April 2021. The project aims to integrate data from many different by layering them in maps or through other visualization means. Such data visualization should help inform Compliance and Enforcement decisions; whether direct or indirect. We are currently in a research phase - defining the problem statement, discovering what other partners have done in this space. The project anticipates taking my pivots as new information is discovered.

ROEB’s mandate is to inform and protect Canadians from health risks associated to products, substances, and their environment. To do this, each program makes business decisions to determine what C&E activities it should conduct and where efforts should be focused. This includes prioritization of inspections and compliance verifications, sampling and testing, and authorization applications (i.e., licence, registration, permit, certificate) as well as allocation of resources and supporting tools (e.g. fleet). In line with the branch’s approach to C&E decision-making, such business decisions should be based on risk.
The branch owns and has access to data that can be used to make risk-based decisions. While some programs have already adopted a risk-based decision-making approach for C&E activities planning, others are only starting to explore how to do so leading to differences in how decisions are made.
By using data visualization tools and maps, programs will have a clear idea of what the information and data collected means by giving it a visual context, which can then be considered when making C&E operational decisions such as inspection planning. This will allow them to make faster decisions having all the necessary evidence that they need in one place, including the determination of:
* What sites to inspect based on risk;
* What inspection expertise is needed and what inspectors have the necessary designation to conduct the inspection;
* Whether the inspection should be delivered onsite or offsite;
* Whether onsite inspection of more than one site can be performed during the same trip; and
* Whether there is sufficient equipment available for onsite inspections.
If Project Sia is successful, an interactive map of completed inspections could represent an opportunity to improve the way we communicate with Canadians and industry about health products and food, including regulatory requirements and processes.
