Day 02 - 17 May 2024, Friday (Training)
| 0900 – 1200 (Tea break included) | Track 1: Best Practice Elastomer Asset Management for Biotech Manufacturing Gavin Jackson, Senior Reliability Engineer, SCRI-IS Technologies Ltd. This comprehensive training course provides attendees with the concepts required for successful elastomer asset management for cGMP manufacturing compliance. Elastomers are the weak link in cGMP processes, with a lack of industry understanding related to material selection requirements, correct installation, and ongoing operational management. Key topics covered: • Introduction to elastomer technology and polymer material science • Sanitary gasket, diaphragm valve, and diaphragm design overview • Sealing criticality for cGMP applications • Understanding elastomer failure modes • Development of a modern, science-based reliability programme for biotech elastomer change outs (ECO) • ECO procedure overview for successful valve & gasket installation, including gasket torque guidance • Execution of ECO – work order best practices from biotech industry benchmarking • Data Analysis – use of your ECO data to drive PM Optimisation Who should attend: Anyone responsible for and involved in the procurement, installation, and maintenance of soft parts. Reliability Engineers, maintenance professionals, plant/facility managers, system operators, and quality personnel will all benefit from the knowledge the course provides on the fundamentals of elastomer asset management and its importance for ensuring cGMP system performance through more effective and efficient maintenance strategies. |
| 0900 – 1200 (Tea break included) | Track 2: Valve Diaphragm Change-Out Practical Session & Assessment for Certificate Derek ONeill, GEMU HQ Service Department Practical session consisting of diaphragm change out on the following valves • 601 manual valve MG 8 diaphragm change out • 653 manual valve MG 25 diaphragm code 17 EDPM and code 5M PTFE/EDPM diaphragm • 650 stainless Pneumatic valve MG 25 diaphragm code 17 EDPM and code 5M PTFE/EDPM diaphragm • Setting the seal adjuster on the 601 manual valve • Setting the seal adjuster and stroke limiter on the 653 manual valve • Setting the stroke limiter on the 650 Pneumatic valve • Mounting and re-initialising the 1235/1236 indicators • Mounting and re-initialising the 4242 combi switchbox • Mounting and re-initialising of the 1434/1436 positioners Training Certificate will be issued upon the completion of assessment |
| 1200 – 1300 | Networking Lunch |
| 1300 – 1700 (Tea break included) | Track 1: Advanced Maintenance Planning & Scheduling Strategies for Biopharma Manufacturing Barry Jordan, Director of Reliability & Asset Management, SCRI-IS Technologies Ltd. This specialised training course is tailored for the Biopharma sector and aims to give attendees an appreciation for application of best practice maintenance planning and scheduling strategies within biotech Engineering and Maintenance departments. The importance of robust maintenance planning and scheduling in Biopharma is paramount for supporting integrated operations, reduction in batch cadence and adherence to regulatory standards. Key topics covered: • Introduction to Maintenance Planning and Scheduling within Biopharma • Where does planning/scheduling fit into your WO execution workflow? • Importance of CMMS Master Data for robust planning and scheduling • Identification of Work Order Types and use of Work Order Status • Work Order Prioritisation & Backlog management utilising RCM & Asset Criticality • The role of the Job Plan and PM in Planning and Scheduling • Best practices & Self-Assessment from Industry benchmarking • Developing a Work Order Schedule & integrating into your production schedule • Use of Data Analytics – Planning & Scheduling KPIs and PM Optimisation • Practical Exercise – Developing a Robust Job plan Who should attend Maintenance planners, schedulers, and Maintenance managers within the biopharma sector. This training equips participants with practical tools and insights to optimise maintenance planning & scheduling practices, streamline workflows, and maintain compliance within the highly regulated biopharmaceutical landscape. |
