How to achieve freedom of process for single-use fluid management systems

CMOs and CDMOs must be flexible in their technologies and business models. 

Process flexibility allows contract manufacturing organizations to adapt according to the needs of the pharmaceutical industry. The requirements vary by areas of application, drug substance, volumes and preferred primary packagings for fluid management and cold chain logistics. Therefore, CMOs embrace flexible process solutions that facilitate responding to
different needs. On the other hand, cost-efficiency and limited risks are yet to fulfill to achieve profitable business arrangements with biotech companies. Balancing out different variables whilst ensuring uninterrupted market supply of finished drug products might risk affordability to keep capacity and production quality and to potentially scale-up production quantity.

Achieving flexibility requires the modularity of technologies.
