It’s up to us to build our sustainable future.. To learn more about our Design to Value approach to design and construction, sign up for our monthly newsletter here:.http://bit.ly/BWNewsUpdatesDeveloping our Design to Value approach as pharmaceutical plant design consultants.
In 2012, Bryden Wood and GlaxoSmithKline started working together to try and come up with a different approach to pharmaceutical capital projects.We started from the premise that while a great deal of effort was expended by a lot of expert people within both pharmaceutical and engineering companies, and despite the significant sums being spent, capital projects often failed to meet business requirements.And how could we do better in our approach to pharmaceutical facility design?.
We developed a particular set of tools and an approach that over time became what we now refer to as Design to Value.As we have evolved this approach over the years, we’ve extended it to include many more pharmaceutical engineering projects, as well as a wide range of other sectors, from heavy industry to prisons.. Part of our role is to act as pharmaceutical plant design consultants.
What we aim to do is make sure that projects are well aligned with business requirements; to define and design future assets that translate a company’s strategic objectives into tangible manufacturing facilities – and provide added value.
The key point here is that we put a great deal of effort into defining the business needs.Embrace digital design to have more understanding and control over the design decisions and material quantities.. Use recycled materials wherever possible and adapt project aspirations to suit..
Develop clear and concise operation and maintenance (O&M) information to enable the future building to be well maintained and have the potential to be reused or recycled as valuable components in the future..Consider each layer of a building, with a different strategy for each which responds to the life expectancy of each layer..
Conclusion: driving greater sustainability.Sustainable construction methods and designing for the circular economy are both possible, and essential.
