INSIGHTS ON FACILITY DESIGN

• The Interoperability Challenge In Single-Use

  In this segment from the Bioprocess Online Live event, “Single-Use Harmonization Needs A Tune Up,” our panelists define the main challenge plaguing single-use users: a lack of standards across systems and components. This absence of standardization creates a demand for deep, system-specific expertise that complicates interoperability across the industry and even within an organization. They discuss the many layers of nuance and complexity that make large-scale standardization difficult.

• Supplier Standards And Building Hybrid Single-Use Models

  In this segment from the Bioprocess Online Live event, “Single-Use Harmonization Needs A Tune Up,” the panelists advise taking a unit operations approach to standardization. They also emphasize the growing trend of the plug-and-play hybrid models in single-use.

• How End Users Can Drive Single-Use Harmonization

  Though progress has been made in supplier-created standards, broader harmonization is difficult to balance in a competitive supplier market. In this segment from the Bioprocess Online Live event, “Single-Use Harmonization Needs A Tune Up,” the panelists encourage self-regulation for the industry. This bottom-up approach, where standardization begins with end users, will ultimately put competitive pressure on suppliers.
