Consortia Management and SIEF Representation

Participation and management of Substances Information Exchange Forums (SIEF) and Consortia are a tremendous challenge for registrants.

Since the SIEF and the establishment of consortia have come into operation, REACH Integra has had the opportunity to participate in them in various ways; from contact with the Lead Registrant and/or entities that manage them in order to acquire Letters of Access and participate in the Joint Submission to being a SIEF facilitator and manage consortia.

The experience accumulated allows REACH Integra to develop the following services to participate in the Joint Submission:

• Representation in SIEF and Consortia
• Third Party Representative (TPR) in SIEF
• Technical assistance as Lead Registrant and/or facilitator
• Assistance in the administrative, technical and economic management of the SIEFs
• Manage participation in the Joint Submission and consortia, acquiring Letters of Access, SIEF Agreement, etc.

In the case of consortia, the main services developed by REACH Integra include:

• Consortia Administrative management and agreement preparation, as well as access of new members into the consortia
• Consortia Economic and financial management, cost sharing within the consortia and sale management of Letters of Access
• Procedures for budgeting, outsourcing and monitoring of studies on physicochemical properties and eco-toxicological effects
