One solution for all DSCSA Regulated ATP interactions
Below outlines the simple path to DSCSA compliance for ATP:
With a contract in place, Spherity will configure a secure, private digital wallet enabled for Credentialing Services. Using the provided username and temporary password you will be able to finalize your company account activation.
To onboard a new enterprise to the Credentialing Service, you have to access the Enterprise Identity Management within your digital wallet. Here the system guides a User through two simple onboarding screens:
First, you will need to identify who within your organization has the proper authority and documentation required to establish your corporate identity. With the proper documentation, an authorized representative will complete the requested company and contact information. Depending on the verification method you select, the process for approval could take a little as 5 minutes.
Once your Identity Credential has been successfully issued to your Spherity wallet, you will be directed to the Authorized Trading Partner (ATP) Credential request. Depending on the type of organization you are representing (ie – Manufacturer, Wholesaler, or Dispenser), you will need to enter either your Board of Pharmacy (BoP) License Number or your FDA Establishment Identifier Number.
Similar to the Identity Credential, Legisym performs due diligence in accordance to the OCI Credential Issuer Conformance Criteria prior to issuing an ATP Credential to your Spherity wallet.
To use your credentials in product verifications, Spherity integrates with your existing VRS Provider. With your permission, your VRS provider will be able to issue and verify credentials presentations. The following VRS Providers are already integrated with Spherity:
