| dc.description.abstract | Commercial demand at a
pharmaceutical facility in Juncos has been
constantly increasing since 2016. Focused on
process improvement strategies, our formulation
capabilities were increased to support Drug Product
requirements. These efforts resulted in a more agile
and efficient manufacturing process by reducing
31% in lot lead time, 36% in batch record review
process and absorbed an increase in lots by 9%
(equivalent to 588 hours), thus increasing capacity
from 2 to 4.07 lots per day without increasing
headcount.
