They observed that workers had to wear heavy personal protective equipment (PPE) to enter a certain room.

The ability to undertake rapid digital optioneering was particularly important as forecast demand volumes were uncertain and clinical manufacturing requirements for the drug were still being developed during the design phase.We developed a capacity model in-house to inform decisions around unit operations and scale..

The final design concept was deliberately simple.Process spaces were housed on a single level, raised above the ground to meet flood protection requirements.A technical floor was located above the process.

Offsite modular prefabrication helped improve programme delivery..Working alongside local stakeholders to ensure the viability of delivery in Italy, we overlapped design, procurement and construction activities to prioritise elements of the build according to variables like complexity and long-lead-time equipment..

Rigorous interrogation of the design at each stage helped ensure construction and commissioning was completed on budget and within a very tight schedule: 15 months from groundbreaking to handover of the fully finished facility..

The project was one of two FOYA Category Winners for Social Impact in 2020.Some AI models, though not in the leading peloton, are close behind and more cost-effective.

These applications may place lower demands on processing and cooling and hold a lower facility price point.. Everyone in the room agreed that standing still is not an option..Some believe that we’re reaching the edges of technological development in cooling, certainly from current supply chains.

There are other cooling technologies (e.g.some developed for the defunct space shuttle programme), but these are currently 100x the cost.
