PROCESS PROJECTS
There are many reasons to employ the support of a process specialist. Typically, the projects that benefits greatly from an experienced process specialist can be divided into these three areas:
- New processes: Implementing a new production process is often quite complicated. Alba assists in making sure that process foundation is solid. We strive to continuously expand our knowledge on the latest technological advances to provide cutting edge advise on sustainable solutions. We support all the way through early design phases and hand-over and production start-up.
- Process optimisation: When optimising a process, we always keep three things in mind: efficiency, consistency, and quality. Albas systematic and analytical approach ensures that we improve and increase productivity while reducing waste of existing processes. We aim to create more sustainable, environmentally friendly and holistic solutions.
- Process adaptation: Refurbishing equipment to cGMP or applied to new processes is not only economical but often also the most sustainable solution. At Alba we understand that implementing new processes can be costly, thus we strive to utilize existing equipment whenever possible.

Project Assessment
Having a holistic view of your entire process chain and facility can be difficult for a company. Often many talented individuals are involved in specific daily tasks, and do not possess the time nor the overview to possess this holistic approach.
Alba Project Group can support our customers with everything from day-to-day production operation to improvements and optimization of processes, as well as taking a lead on larger brown field and green field projects.
We are team of highly skilled professionals with many years of experience from actual cGMP manufacturing facilities.
