Does COLAs Online reduce the amount of time it takes to receive label approval?
The process of human review of the COLA application for compliance with the regulations remains; however, elimination of the time it takes to send paper applications through the mail shortens the process significantly. Also, the online application has built-in validations to prevent many errors that are made by applicants on paper applications. Another feature of COLAs Online is that users are given the opportunity to correct a label application, eliminating the need for most outright rejections and reducing the overall turnaround time for COLA approvals.
