The recipe for successful life sciences buildings: With the EPCM (Engineering, Procurement, Construction Management) execution model, Drees & Sommer life sciences experts bundle all planning, consulting and management services. To ensure the smoothest possible realization of complex buildings in the life sciences sector, you need experts who offer everything for projects from a single source and who are familiar with the special GxP requirements. After all, the highest safety and hygiene standards apply in the three sectors of pharmaceutical technology, medical technology and medical biotechnology.

The necessary construction, process and qualification projects pose numerous challenges as they must not have a negative impact on business processes and must offer maximum security in terms of costs, deadlines and quality. With many years of relevant industry experience, Drees & Sommer experts support clients worldwide even before the actual planning begins. 

 

Solutions for Life Sciences and Pharma sector

Pharmaceutical technology, medical technology and medical biotechnology are all very distinct areas of Life Sciences. Our products and solutions help companies in this sector reliably achieve success in their projects. Despite all the different processes and outcomes, all our products feature a combination of economical, digital, sustainable and innovative components.

ENGINEERING, PROCUREMENT, CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT (EPCM)

Drees & Sommer Life Sciences experts use EPCM to bring together all planning, consulting and management services. At the same time, they use modern lean methods for the planning and execution of building and plant projects. This systematically reduces interfaces, simplifies coordination of the entire project, and helps achieve optimal coordination and structure even in the case of super-fast track projects.

MODULAR CONSTRUCTION AND BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING (BIM)

Digitization is already bringing about rapid changes to our living and work environments. For construction projects in the Life Sciences segment, with its stringent safety, speed and flexibility requirements, two approaches are particularly promising: Modular Construction and Building Information Modeling (BIM). For Life Sciences projects, Drees & Sommer links these two methods to form a powerful digital duo that allows, amongst other things, faster, more reliable and more cost-effective realization of production and laboratory buildings.

Project Management Office (PMO)

As a professional "temporary project department", we take over a large part of the construction tasks for clients from the life sciences industry, so that they can take care of their core business. We act in an integrated, holistic and solution-oriented manner. In doing so, we ensure cost-effectiveness, binding total costs and adherence to realistic schedules in the ordered quality.

COMMISSIONING MANAGEMENT

In Life Sciences projects, commissioning costs generally account for between eight and 15 percent of total investment. Systematic commissioning management by Drees & Sommer leads to a significant reduction in both the cost and effort required.As an option, our experts also can use special 3C Management® (Construction, Commissioning and Compliance) to integrate qualification.

INTEGRATED CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT AND CONSTRUCTION LOGISTICS

Construction sites with complex infrastructure or strict GxP requirements place extraordinary demands on the construction process. The stringent safety and hygiene standards in the pharmaceutical technology, medical technology and medical biotechnology sectors make it essential to integrate construction management and comprehensive construction logistics early during the later phases of planning. Only in this way can it be ensured that all necessary measures and requirements for sensitive buildings can be planned and correctly implemented.
