Facility and Asset Management
Lean Biologix has years working with the major CMMS systems. This includes configuration for streamlined performance and compliance, process flows, maintenance plans, spare parts inventory management, and purchasing.
Lean Biologix has years of experience working with GMP facilities managers to:
- Define maintenance and calibration plans and schedules
- Analyze data to meet reliability centered maintenance objectives
- Establish best practices in warehouse inventory management and control
- Incorporate equipment assessments and criticality processes within the system (Direct Impact, Indirect impact, No impact)
- Define workflows and requirements (GMP, non-GMP, Site services)
TOP Documentation Management
For Facility equipment installation and construction projects, the management of the turnover package documentation is oftentimes overlooked or implemented poorly at the end of the project. This leads to costly delays in manufacturing startup.
Lean Biologix works with our clients and the general contractors to bridge the gap and manage the process throughout the project. Our method delivers an electronic turnover package that allows users access from anywhere with an internet connection. Below is a summary of the process and advantages of the Lean Biologix ETOP process.
