Investment Detail
The Regulatory Compliance and Inspection Investment allows CTP to meet the obligations of the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act by supporting compliance enforcement initiatives as well as facilitating public access to data associated with inspection results. This investment increases the efficiency of the amount of inspections completed by providing a mobile interface for allowing State Inspectors to conduct Compliance Check Inspections of Retail Establishments. This Investment provides more timely Inspection results and provides the public with product information and compliance check data, limiting the number of improper sales and marketing of tobacco products in retail establishments. To meet the growing volume of users and data, the Tobacco Inspection Management System (TIMS) project within this Investment will establish robust system scalability and improve overall system performance, reducing cost, improving reporting, and optimizing workflow capability.
