Case Study: Super Fast Track Design and Implementation of a new Pharma OSD production facility for two blockbuster drugs

Boehringer Ingelheim has extended its Pharma OSD capacity for two blockbuster drugs at its Ingelheim site in Germany with a new flexible OSD production facility, which was designed and built in a super fast track project approach. The case study will provide an overview on the project development from early design phase, via engineering phases, fast-track modular building construction, implementation of HVAC, cleanrooms, process equipment, handling and periphery systems, utilities, intralogistics and automation systems. Specific requirements to the super fast track schedule and related project execution strategies will be outlined. Further key points are:

• Design principles, plant structuring with process LLE packages
• Strategies for super fast track project execution
• Layout modules and supply concepts for the new OSD facility
• Important success factors and challenges

The Glatt Process & Plant Engineering has demonstrated in this project that, despite a very ambitious schedule, such a project can be completed on time and within budget in collaboration with the client Boehringer Ingelheim, various planning partners, and different contractors. In addition to the various planning approaches and tools, smart and effective project management and the personal commitment of all project participants contributed to this success. This presentation will highlight these approaches and procedures.
