Enhancing Large-Scale Biopharmaceutical Production through DCS and MES Process Modularization

Client Study

Tuesday, September 23

09:00 am - 09:30 am

Live in Berlin

Less Details

Unlock modular manufacturing with an activity driven recipe architecture and parameter management framework for flexible, product-agnostic MES and DCS integration. This framework supports a parameter-driven sequence of activities using a modular MES approach. Parameters are managed through a web-based tool, empowering data owners to maintain recipe parameters efficiently. The recipes are designed to be activity-focused and product-agnostic. By employing a sequencer-based approach, this architecture minimizes changes to the DeltaV Batch system, facilitating faster introduction of new products. This flexible recipe design simplifies and streamlines the tech transfer process, making it more effective. In this session, you will learn how to:

Design product-agnostic, activity-based recipes to enable modular and scalable MES/DCS integration.
Streamline tech transfer and reduce batch system rework by using a sequencer-based architecture.
Empower process experts through a web-based parameter management tool that enhances ownership and flexibility.
