Step 1: Request for Proposal (RFP) & Screening
Every project begins with a deep-dive screening. We don't just say "yes" to every project; we evaluate:
• Technical Feasibility: Can we execute this chemistry safely and efficiently?
• Route Scouting: Is there a better, greener, or cheaper way to build this molecule?
• Environmental Impact: What is the waste profile of this project?
Step 2: Process Development & Optimization
Once the project is greenlit, our synthetic chemists move into the lab. The goal here is Process Familiarization. We optimize reaction times, solvent volumes, and work-up procedures to ensure the process is "rugged" enough for a commercial plant.
Step 3: Pilot Studies
In this stage, we move from the bench to 5L-20L glass assemblies. We conduct:
• Mixing and Agitation Studies.
• Heat Transfer Calculations.
• Generation of Pilot Reports: Capturing every observation that might affect large-scale manufacturing.
Step 4: Technology Transfer (Tech Transfer)
This is the bridge to commercialization. We prepare a "Regulatory-Ready" Tech Transfer package.
• P&ID and PFD Development.
• Safety "What-If" Analysis: Predicting and preventing potential hazards.
• Walkthroughs: Physical inspection of the commercial reactor setup.
Step 5: Commercial Manufacturing
The execution phase. Under the oversight of our Group Leaders, we run the campaign.
• Team Training: Every operator is trained specifically for your process.
• In-Process Quality Control (IPQC): Real-time monitoring to ensure the reaction stays within the "Design Space."
Step 6: Campaign Reporting
The project doesn't end when the material is shipped. We provide a final Campaign Report, including:
• Yield analysis and material balance.
• Deviations and CAPA (Corrective and Preventive Actions) reports.
• Final tech transfer package for your long-term use.
