However, when I hear “Facility of the Future,” I think of lean manufacturing and flexibility. The majority of my career has been on the design side, where I focused on building facilities. Historically, the projects I...
“This is the best time to be working in the life sciences industry,” the Keynote speaker said at an ISPE conference several years ago. At the time, I thought to myself, she is so right, this really is the best time to be working in the life sciences industry. Then, no one imagined that the world would be plunged into the worst of times battling a global pandemic that claimed the lives of over...
