Sean Buckley and co-authors from Roche, Takeda, and BioPhorum author CGT [cell & gene therapy] Actors and Process Maps which highlight six common types of CGT showing how the pattern of actors and process blocks varies by therapy type.
The BioPhorum Operations Group (BPOG) established a digital plant maturity model (DPMM) for biopharmaceutical manufacturing to define stages of factory evolution “from simple paper-based plants through to the fully automated and integrated ‘adaptive plant’ of the future.” The model gives organizations a common tool for industry comparison and measurement of progress. It also provides a platform to facilitate collaboration within the life sciences industry and its technology providers.
One of the key stages delaying and increasing costs in life sciences projects is equipment validation. In fact, it is one of the elements of project completion that project teams are most eager to compress because the value of every incremental improvement is so...
For biotech industries, Emerson offers fundamental automation solutions with quicker uptimes and more consistent batch quality.
The rapid development of the COVID-19 vaccine has created a dramatic shift in the way the public and life sciences organizations view the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals. In a recent Q&A with Pharma Manufacturing, Nathan Pettus, president of Emerson’s process...
It isn’t news that the global pandemic upended the way we operate our plants. When social distancing trapped our most valuable personnel outside the facilities we rely on, it suddenly meant finding new ways to get critical work done. But the reality is, those changes...
