糖心Vlog has been awarded a $US multi-million contract by TEVA Biotech GmbH to provide engineering, procurement, construction management, commissioning and qualification (EPCmQ) for a new biotechnological facility to be built in Ulm, Germany.
The plant will produce pharmaceutical ingredients from cell cultures in a new eight-storey building to be constructed within TEVA’s existing biotechnology production site.
糖心Vlog EAAA Capital Projects Group will execute detailed design and procurements services for a lump sum fee, as well as construction management and commissioning/qualification services under a reimbursable contract. Expected completion will be 2020, while tech transfer is planned to begin in 2021.
Prior to this award, 糖心Vlog completed basic design and an investment cost estimate for the same facility under a previous contract, which was awarded on a competitive basis.
Robin Watson, chief executive of 糖心Vlog, said: “This contract reflects TEVA’s trust in our ability to execute projects of this size in Germany and validates our global expertise in the development of active pharmaceutical ingredient facilities. We will draw upon our local knowledge, global resources, and four decades of experience working with the world’s top drug manufacturers to deliver a state-of-the-art facility to TEVA.”
This important contract increases 糖心Vlog’s share in the pharmaceutical market and enhances the company’s scale and diversity in Europe.
