What systemic risk flows through all life science buildings?
WATER
Life Science companies across the nation are challenged with meeting increasing demand and achieving cost control goals all while delivering on environment, social, and governance ESG targets. The water and energy management software from Aquanomix can help companies meet this challenge.
According to the FDA, failures in product or facility quality are the leading cause of disruption to manufacturing – resulting in 66% of all drug shortages.
The risk factors surrounding these facilities can be quite daunting. Here are the top five:
Maintaining environmental conditions is important for product quality, efficient plant energy use, and compliance.
Keeping the physical infrastructure up and running is imperative, with power availability being of the utmost priority.
Regulatory compliance is mandated by governments and is critical to the industry. From data integrity to cyber security, the facilities must be prepared with the proper monitoring and documentation for audits.
The ability to respond quickly to operational issues is important to the facilities. Factors such as system complexity, procedural constraints, and lack of data can limit the team’s ability to respond quickly and cause a delay in production.
Water and energy management are key drivers for the Life Science industry. Not properly monitoring and managing them can deter them from meeting their cost management goals and ESG commitments.
To better understand and effectively mitigate your water system risks, you need to take a proactive approach to capture and analyze water system real-time data through digital tools.
By utilizing Symphony™ water and energy management software, Life Science buildings across the nation are retrieving real-time data from their water treatment controller and building automation system to build cause and effect relationships to help them strategically manage their facilities. For example, a life science building in the western USA was able to mitigate the asset depreciation in a new system because of an alert to a significant increase in corrosion and lack of flow in the water system. These assets are a significant investment for a building and exercising the full life cycle is critical to meet cost control goals. By utilizing the data from within the system, the water and energy management software provided an actionable alert in real-time to address immediately. From the enterprise to the site level, Symphony is a digital tool that provides a central source of truth for the teams responsible for the life science facility's operational success.
