How can outsourcing partners produce win-win results and build long-term relationships?
METTLER TOLEDO is pleased to offer a free educational webinar highlighting the use of Process Analytical Technologies (PAT) to improve project communication and project success for both pharmaceutical outsourcing partners and their sponsors.
You are invited to view this free on-demand webinar:
“Communication is difficult and misunderstandings keep occurring,”1 complained both partners in an article by Dr. Paula J. Shadle, listing the common gripes of CMOs and their Bio-Pharma sponsors. The use of the right Process Analytical Technologies (PAT) provides a common language for the transfer of outsourced processes for further development or manufacturing. Real-time measurements of critical process parameters have been used to:
- Improve communications – to ensure the process and product quality meet customer expectations
- Maximize resource utilization – by enabling faster technology transfer and scale-up, and increased production throughput
- Increase profitability – by eliminating batch failures and rework due to off-spec material
In the on-demand webinar, we will use case studies to explore the benefits of Process Analytical Technology (PAT) in improving communication and project results for both the outsourcing supplier and the sponsoring Bio-Pharmaceutical company. Case studies will address commonly outsourced process applications including custom organic synthesis and crystallization steps in the production of an active ingredient (API) as well as the high-shear granulation of a formulated drug product.
