“The facility’s innovative design will allow for the production of small product batches considered in short supply by the FDA and those intended for treatment of rare diseases that typically affect a smaller population, known as orphan drugs”

Jacobs claimed that the identification of mechanical enhancements and use of advancements in equipment have been important to cutting down construction and capital costs.

The firm, supporting the delivery programme of just over two years, completed concept and detailed design within 12 months, as against the regular timeframe of 20 to 24 months for sterile fill-facilities.
Construction of the facility is expected to complete in 2022.
