Challenging competition in the life sciences market requires facility owners to balance quality, cost, speed, and technical complexity — all while maintaining regulatory compliance and sustainable practices.
We design and build life sciences facilities and processes that help improve the lives of humans and animals. Our experience spans diverse sectors within the industry, including pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, animal health and medical devices.
With a focus on scalable, high-tech, cGMP-compliant facilities, we guide clients through every phase of the project life cycle, from initial capital project planning and site assessments to design development, construction, commissioning, and startup.
Our core strength lies in our ability to optimize facilities. We see the big picture and are adept at integrating highly technical and detailed engineering with cost controls and high-quality constructability measures. We evaluate needs, operational data, budget and schedule requirements, and incorporate with Lean Six Sigma principles to make life sciences operations as seamless as possible.
Collaborative Design and Construction
For life sciences projects, our team engages in collaborative design-build, self-perform construction and other delivery methods. As a single-source design and construction partner, we design with the end in mind by integrating our planning, architecture, engineering and construction professionals from the outset of projects.
By leveraging key experience and knowledge at the start, our team develops targeted solutions that align with regulatory requirements as well as client objectives and budgetary constraints. Our design-build approach, exercised for years, maximizes critical in-house resources and enables us to complete our projects in a time and cost-effective manner.
Smarter and Faster Manufacturing Solutions
Whether modernizing existing manufacturing facilities, expanding operations or launching new greenfield projects, our team is equipped to navigate the complexities of life sciences manufacturing processes. We combine a deep understanding of critical unit operations with a broad knowledge of high-tech industry applications to meet demanding product launch timelines, adhere to cost-efficient budgets and uphold industry best practices.
Advancements in robotics and automation have increased technology adoption across various life sciences markets. Our engineering, procurement and construction teams can upgrade existing processes with the latest in technology to improve manufacturing plant safety, quality, productivity and dependability.
In addition, we examine manufacturing facilities and campuses comprehensively, paying special attention to sustainability. As a result, our all-inclusive solutions cover factors such as biodiversity preservation, trash reduction, water reuse, energy conservation and decarbonization.
As a provider of a wide continuum of services, we foster innovation and deliver cutting-edge, high-tech life sciences facilities tailored to meet clients’ custom needs.
