Find FDA-Registered Facilities by Company

Every FDA-regulated manufacturer has at least one registered facility, identified by an FEI (FDA Establishment Identifier). Knowing which facilities belong to a company — and what they produce — is the foundation for supply chain monitoring, inspection tracking, and recall impact analysis. This guide shows how to find and explore facilities using three MCP tools.

Step 1 — Search facilities by company

fda_search_facilities does a fuzzy match against company names across both the DECRS (Device Establishment Registration) and device registration datasets.

fda_search_facilities({ "company": "Pfizer" })

Sample response:

{
  "results": [
    {
      "fei_number": "3002807852",
      "firm_name": "Pfizer Inc",
      "city": "New York",
      "state": "NY",
      "country": "US",
      "source": "decrs"
    },
    {
      "fei_number": "3004336298",
      "firm_name": "Pfizer Manufacturing Belgium NV",
      "city": "Puurs",
      "country": "BE",
      "source": "device_registration"
    },
    ...
  ],
  "pagination": { "offset": 0, "limit": 25, "total": 52 }
}

Results come from two sources — DECRS and device registration — merged and deduplicated. The source field tells you which dataset the record came from. Use FEI as your primary join key for all downstream lookups.

Step 2 — Get full facility details

Pick an FEI from the search results and call fda_get_facility to get the complete record, including linked enforcement history and a per-facility risk summary.

fda_get_facility({ "fei": "3002807852" })

The response includes the facility record, recent enforcement actions linked to that FEI, a product count, and a facility_risk_summary with inspection outcome counts (NAI/VAI/OAI) and any compliance actions on file.

Step 3 — Map facility to device products

To see what device products a facility is registered to manufacture:

fda_facility_products({ "fei": "3002807852" })

Sample response:

{
  "results": [
    {
      "product_code": "FPA",
      "device_name": "System, Infusion, Elastomeric",
      "regulation_number": "880.5725",
      "device_class": "2"
    },
    ...
  ],
  "pagination": { "offset": 0, "limit": 25, "total": 8 }
}

This tells you exactly what a facility is authorized to produce. Useful for assessing the impact of an inspection finding or recall — if a facility producing Class III devices gets an OAI inspection result, that's a higher-priority signal.

Filtering by location

fda_search_facilities also accepts state and country filters. To find all Pfizer facilities in a specific country:

fda_search_facilities({ "company": "Pfizer", "country": "IN" })

This is useful for supply chain analysis — for example, identifying all facilities for a company in a region subject to import alerts.

Workflow summary

1. fda_search_facilities to find all FEIs for a company.
2. fda_get_facility per FEI for details and risk summary.
3. fda_facility_products per FEI to map products.
4. Join FEIs to inspections and compliance actions for ongoing monitoring.
