Success Factors for Life Sciences Projects

Keeping CapEx Investments on Track

The life sciences industry invests billions in new research and production capacities. Yet many construction projects face hurdles. Why does this happen? And how can companies avoid common pitfalls when running CapEx projects?

In biopharma, medical technology, and chemistry, construction projects face high demands. Complex regulations, new technologies, and changing markets make planning and execution challenging. Still, CapEx projects succeed when key success factors are clear.

• How can realistic risk analyses and lean construction approaches prevent delays and cost overruns early in the project?
• How does clear coordination and digital 3D planning ensure regulatory compliance in complex lab and production projects?
• What benefits do digital tools like process simulations or trace matrices bring for quality assurance and efficiency in life sciences projects?

Drees & Sommer answer these questions in the publication “Success Factors for CapEx Projects in the Life Sciences Industry.” It offers clear recommendations to help companies prepare for new construction projects.
