CDMO manufacturing facility

For new and expanding CDMOs, credibility rests on development capability: platforms that work, laboratories that are fit for purpose and teams that know what good looks like. Z2 brings experience from global CDMO development – including cell line construction governance across sites at Lonza Biologics – to help establish and strengthen credible, scalable process-development capabilities.

Demand is shifting: under the US BIOSECURE Act, sponsors are seeking capacity in the US, Europe, South Korea and India.1,2

How Z2 helps

  • CLD and upstream platforms built
  • Laboratories, equipment, workflows and SOPs
  • Qualification strategy and operational readiness
  • GMO containment, risk assessments and COSHH/BioCOSHH compliance
  • Technology-transfer readiness as a receiving site
  • Mentoring and training for process development teams

Where rushed timelines break

Receiving-site equipment that differs from the sending site; capability stood up without a map.

Where Z2 helps

Platforms, labs and teams designed with the client's transfer, comparability and CMC needs in mind.
