The quest for continuous process improvement in the biopharma industry
Congratulations! You successfully developed a new target molecule and brought it to market. Now what? Almost immediately after introducing a new commercial product, the focus shifts to how the developed process can be optimized to increase efficiency, reduce costs, and maximize yield without compromising supply quality.
Embracing innovation and process improvement is essential for staying competitive and achieving better outcomes in the long run. However, once established processes and methods are in place, any changes can be daunting due to associated risks and compliance challenges. So, where do you begin?
Elevate your processes with Biopharma 4.0 innovative technologies
Biopharma 4.0 offers significant potential for enhancing biopharmaceutical manufacturing procedures, elevating product standards, and cutting down expenses. Supported by QbD and PAT frameworks, Biopharma 4.0 integrates the principles of Industry 4.0 digital transformation into the biopharmaceutical manufacturing industry. It aims to establish automated smart factories equipped with real-time surveillance and process control. Implementing Biopharma 4.0 tools like Raman spectroscopy and digital Memosens technology allows for early identification of process discrepancies and predictive maintenance.
Endress+Hauser measurement technologies can be applied to monitor regulatory-approved bioprocesses with no impact to compliance, as long as they are not used as primary process or quality control tools (unless the filing is updated accordingly). This reduces the likelihood of batch failures while ensuring consistent product quality and yield. Strengthening existing processes with new technologies is strongly encouraged by regulatory bodies, benefiting both manufacturers and patients.
