With heart, high tech, and responsibility, a new powerhouse of biotechnology was created in Ulm. At a height of 36.5 m and an area of 4,700 m², Teva has developed a state-of-the-art production plant for complex biotechnological active ingredients. With 300 new jobs and a clear focus on innovation, the generics world leader is strengthening its position and sending a strong signal for progress, security of supply, and medical excellence.

Holistic management for maximum impact

With strategic vision and operational strength, Drees & Sommer decisively drove the project forward. Through targeted impetus and a comprehensive 360-degree analysis, the team sharpened the vision and accelerated the implementation of the project. While the construction management was in the hands of the EPCM contractor, Drees & Sommer took over the overall construction management, noticeably lightening the client's workload. Drees & Sommer coordinated the TEVA team in the execution phase and ensured a smooth project process and maximum efficiency.
