THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION IS PROVIDED TO ABI FILERS FILING ENTRIES
USING THE FDA INTERFACE. ALL QUESTIONS SHOULD BE DIRECTED TO JOE
MCCALLION OF THE FDA, AT 301-594-1218.
FDA PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCED (ADMIN MESSAGE 96-0334) THAT IT PLANNED
TO IMPLEMENT OASIS VERSION 2.0 AT FDA'S PHILADELPHIA DISTRICT
ON OCTOBER 16, 1996, AND AT ITS BALTIMORE AND NEW ORLEANS DISTRICTS
ON NOVEMBER 13, 1996. ONGOING USER TESTING OF THE NEW SYSTEM
INDICATES SOME ADDITIONAL WORK IS REQUIRED BEFORE THE SYSTEM IS
READY FOR FULL SCALE OPERATIONS. FDA IS POSTPONING THE DATE FOR
TRANSITION FROM EEPS TO OASIS AT ITS PHILADELPHIA, BALTIMORE, AND
NEW ORLEANS DISTRICTS UNTIL DECEMBER 2, 1996. FDA PERSONNEL FROM
THOSE DISTRICTS WILL BE IN CONTACT WITH THEIR FILERS PRIOR TO
THE DECEMBER 2 START UP DATE REGARDING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF
OASIS. MEANWHILE THOSE FILERS WILL CONTINUE THEIR USE OF EEPS.
THIS CHANGE WILL NOT AFFECT THE EXPANSION LOCATIONS SCHEDULED FOR
CY1997.
