Biopharmaceuticals & Pharmaceuticals
Harris Group Inc. has been serving the biopharmaceutical industry for more than 17 years. We have developed long term relationships with many of the major bioprocessing and pharmaceutical companies.
Working as an extension of our customers'in-house resources, we provide detail design services, often placing teams of our engineers and designers on-site. This approach aids our customers in facilitating project execution and streamlines construction, start-up, and validation.
The design of a plant to manufacture therapeutic drugs can be a serious challenge for an engineering firm. Unique processes, combined with vigorous federal oversight, require knowledge and experience in engineering to design a successful pharmaceutical or biotechnology facility. In addition to understanding the customers process requirements, the engineer must remain current with interpretations of the U.S. FDA facility design guidelines.
Process development, architectural programming, preliminary engineering, and detailed design that address Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) considerations become integral with the owner's project requirements.
Harris Group professionals have the experience to produce detailed engineering designs for facilities that are flexible, licensable and highly productive.
