This paper delivers a seminal example of how BioPhorum can partner with biopharmaceutical suppliers to address the needs of the industry, support new technology adoption in biopharma and facilitate positive and lasting change. BioPhorum’s Small Flexible Filler (SFF) URS allowed Groninger to build a line that would otherwise not exist, defining a strategic direction for the future of liquid fill and finish for the biopharmaceutical industry. Within two and a half years of BioPhorum publishing the SFF URS, Groninger, a German supplier to the industry, has developed a gloveless, robot-based, automated filling line that aligns with the URS and relevant current regulatory expectations.
