Enterprise Level Optimization – Often through the course of facility lifespan, unit operations capacity can become “unbalanced” from the product production requirements. Rebalancing the enterprise to match production unit operations with process requirements can unlock high volumes of production capacity and increase enterprise level output. Think “Multi-Product Facilities” matched with “Multi-Facility Products”.
This is part two of a four-part series that presents the tools and methods used to identify and quantify Production Capacity at a Facility/Site/Enterprise level. Discussion presents the means of evaluating existing enterprise level capacity and defining actions to create a bridge or series of bridges to link enterprise unit operations.
A live Q&A will follow the presentation.
Speakers
Jim Robertson, Senior Director, Facilities Integration, Fluor Industrial Services
Jim is a technical specialist with Fluor’s Facilities Integration group responsible for orchestrating the architectural, process, and process equipment features necessary to ensure a regulatory-compliant facility design within cost and schedule objectives. He has over 30 years of experience in planning and executing projects, from initial feasibility analysis through detail design and construction administration. Jim has been dedicated to the definition and integration of Manufacturing & Life Sciences facilities. During this time, he has been a frequent guest speaker at ASME, ISPE, and Interphex seminars.
Message Presenter
Craig Sandstrom, PhD, Director of Process Engineering, Fluor Industrial Services
Craig is one of Fluor’s resident biotechnology experts and is a Director of Process Engineering within the Industrial Services business. He received his PhD in Chemical Engineering from Northwestern University and has more than 21 years of industry experience, with the last 17 years working with Fluor. During this time, he has worked dozens of bioPharmaceutical facility design and optimization efforts, with an installed value in excess of $1.6 billion. These manufacturing facilities have included both drug substance and final drug product, with products including recombinant proteins (monoclonal antibodies, enzyme replacements, hormones, and growth factors), vaccines and human plasma derived proteins, with manufacturing scales ranging from 500 to 20,000 liters (bioreactor or fermenter capacity) for the drug substance facilities and from 5MM to 50MM vials/syringes per year. More recently, Craig has been leading Fluor’s process efforts around facility optimization and capacity planning, focusing on overall equipment effectiveness and operational consistency to unlock existing capacity with minimal facility impacts.
