Portfolio Highlights:
o 2019 AR5 Capacity: Buffer Batch on Batch- Enable batch on batch buffer capabilities (allowing the same buffer to be batched without a Clean in Place cycle) to 8 buffer hold tanks
o 2019 AR5 Capacity: ABP980RTF (Retentate Tank Fill)- Switched to larger tank increasing the DS yield by ~20% which translates to ~3 lot reduction at ARI per year starting in 2021. The use of the multi-bag assembly fill results in ~10 hours reduction in processing time per lot.
o Enbrel New Formulation (2017)- Installation of all utility/process piping and all associated equipment to support new skid SK-2441, tank skid VE-2440 and BH-2515 in AR5
o 2017-2019 LRPM (Long Range Planned Maintenance)- replacement of equipment at the end of its useful life
o Planning, scheduling, and/or managing projects during all site outages (since 2005) to complete utility and equipment modifications and critical system maintenance
