Continuous manufacturing options continue to grow- in both breadth and scope- within the contract manufacturing industry. Contact RCI to find out more about this exciting and alternative approach to complex, scalable production. While traditional batch processing remains preeminent, we can help you evaluate whether a particular synthetic- or unit operation-based process is ideal for a continuous approach!

Conventional pharmaceutical manufacturing is based on batch manufacturing processes which are robust and have been producing high quality materials for decades. However, batch manufacturing processes contain numerous, disconnected steps; exhibit significant scale changes throughout development and c...

So true. Innovation within the domestic life science arena requires attracting the best and brightest. And that doesn’t mean just highly educated chemists and engineers. There must also be a priority for training talented chemical operators, technicians, and auxiliary personnel for all facets of the manufacturing process- and for the overall life cycle supply chain. RCI realizes the importance of high competency in all of these areas, as effective inter-dependencies rely on good and properly trained employees delivering the quality results necessary for effective outsourcing!

COVID-19 continues to cause massive disruption to the supply chain and has exposed our vulnerabilities in relying on off-shore suppliers. The situation has caused both private and government sectors to question the validity of offshore manufacturing and whether or not it makes sense to bring manufac...
