The Pilot Bioproduction Facility (PBF) is one of six branches within the Center for Enabling Capabilities (CEC) at WRAIR and conducts research, development, production, and testing of vaccines and other biological products. Recently the PBF has undergone a complete renovation with new equipment and technology which is intended to bring the PBF in line with current industry standard practices. Among these technology upgrades are the implementation of a Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) and Manufacturing Execution System (MES) for enhanced capabilities including, but not limited to, sample management, inventory and reagent management, document management, protocol execution and must be 21 CFR Part 11 compliant. Secure sign on or e-signature of documents within these programs must be fully auditable as required by US FDA regulation 21 CFR Part 11. WRAIR is seeking to purchase a wearable authentication band that securely communicates a users credentials over Near Field Communication to systems running a LIMS, MES and other laboratory or production equipment at the PBF. These bands must be able to provide multi-factor biometric authentication that remains active until the user removes the band from the wrist. They must be able to communicate through personal protective equipment worn in a clean room environment, be able to be assigned, revoked and re-assigned to users, and must de-authenticate upon removal and must be 21 CFR Part 11 compliant.� We provide specific requirements within Attachment 2.
