About SIDI Work Group

The SIDI Work Group is a coalition of three industry trade associations—the Consumer Healthcare Products Association (CHPA), the Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN), the United Natural Products Alliance (UNPA)—and a number of their member representatives. The SIDI Work Group’s expert volunteers develop guidelines as tools to assist dietary supplement manufacturers and ingredient or component suppliers with the process of supplier qualification. Each of the guidelines focuses on different aspects of qualifying a component supplier, and together, they are intended to help companies develop their own supplier qualification programs for compliance with the dietary supplement cGMP regulation (21 CFR Part 111).
