“The United States International Trade Commission (USITC) today deployed the Investigations Database System (IDS), an innovative new data management tool that captures, manages, and displays USITC investigation-related information. Users are encouraged to visit the USITC website at https://ids.usitc.gov to explore this new tool. A major new feature is the ability to conduct quick searches and advanced searches of the centralized investigation database that generate in-depth search results across multiple practice areas, providing new perspectives and value-added insights for users. IDS provides users with several ways to obtain information. For example, users can search IDS by keywords (e.g., steel), creating a one-stop shop for investigation data across Section 337, import injury, and factfinding mission areas. Alternatively, users can focus on a single investigative area by focusing on or filtering their searches by practice area.”
