Designing Flexible Facilities for Bioprocess Development and Manufacturing

Thursday, August 24 - Friday, August 25, 2017
DAY 1: 2:00 - 5:15 pm | DAY 2: 8:30 am - 3:15 pm


Instructor: Jeffery Odum, MSc, CPIP, Global Technology Partner, NNE; Managing Partner, Strategic Manufacturing Concept Group

Introduction
Biomanufacturing organizations today are looking for best practice approaches to create flexible manufacturing assets to support overall business needs. With expanding product pipelines and the introduction of new technology platforms, creating an asset that will not only have a long lifecycle expectancy but one that will also be flexible to meet development and commercial launch needs is a paramount business goal.

This two-day course will introduce attendees to the key facility design considerations that are needed to ensure the creation of a design concept and approach that will yield highly flexible, optimized, and highly utilized manufacturing assets. Key concepts will include development and understanding of a manufacturing enterprise model, the product-process-facility paradigm, “design-to-operate” methodology, appropriateness of GMP design compliance, and the identification and mitigation of risks around a sound QRM approach.

The course will implement traditional lecture components, class exercises, and the use of case studies as learning tools.

Training Seminar Information

Each CHI Training Seminar offers 1.5 days of instruction with start and stop times for each day shown above and on the Event-at-a-Glance published in the onsite Program & Event Guide. Training Seminars will include morning and afternoon refreshment breaks, as applicable, and lunch will be provided to all registered attendees on the full day of the class.

Each person registered specifically for the training seminar will be provided with a hard copy handbook for the seminar in which they are registered. A limited number of additional handbooks will be available for other delegates who wish to attend the seminar, but after these have been distributed, no additional books will be available.

Though CHI encourages track hopping between conference programs, we ask that Training Seminars not be disturbed once they have begun. In the interest of maintaining the highest quality learning environment for Training Seminar attendees, and because Seminars are conducted differently than conference programming, we ask that attendees commit to attending the entire program, and not engage in track hopping, as to not disturb the hands-on style instruction being offered to the other participants.
