Technical infrastructure - striking the right balance to optimise compliance and value

Thu 27 May 2010 4pm European Time, 3pm UK GMT, 10am Eastern Daylight Time

In this webinar HOCHTIEF Facility Management will provide an overview of the key issues facing producers operating in highly controlled cGMP environments and tools that can be used to enhance performance. The webinar will set out a framework for looking at maintenance holistically which allows producers to step back and weigh up the value drivers. How this can be applied in pharmaceutical environments will be discussed by considering the main areas of cost and risk in terms of production.

Join this session to hear real-life examples of areas where simple changes can deliver big results and offer ways to reduce cost whilst maintaining compliance. Participants will be able to discuss options and test the ideas set out with the three presenters from HOCHTIEF Facility Management.

Registration is free but places are limited, so please be sure to reserve your space now.

Company Profile

HOCHTIEF Facility Management

HOCHTIEF Facility Management is one of the leading vendors of integrated facilities management solutions. We established our businesses not just operating in office and administration buildings but, in addition to that, we focus more and more on facilities management close to the client's production process. Thus we are also the partner of choice for the intelligent outsourcing of processes that are very close to the client's core business. Thanks to our extensive industrial expertise, we know how to merge our services closely with a company's operational sequences. With our 5,700 employees we are a reliable partner for Pharmaceutical manufacturers. We are not satisfied with providing just the traditional range of FM services. We go one step further and take an integrated view of everything involved. Accordingly, what we offer is sub-divided into services for buildings and land, services for operational processes and plants, and the preparation of analyses and concepts. We define what we do far more broadly than other vendors. Our experts do not confine themselves simply to rendering the contractually agreed functions, they also see themselves as a source of fresh ideas with a focus on optimizing the efficiency potential of our clients.
