Delivery performance matters in bioprocess development. To improve lead times, increase transparency, and build a stronger foundation for continuous improvement, INFORS HT partnered with STAUFEN, part of Accenture, to rethink the pilot bioreactor order fulfillment process. This behind-the-scenes look shows how we challenged our own ways of working and what the changes mean for our customers.

Moving a mammalian cell culture process from shake flask to bioreactor is more than a scale-up exercise. Each transition introduces new challenges in oxygen transfer, pH control, CO₂ management, mixing, and data reproducibility. This practical guide explores the key stages of cell culture process development, explains why process transfer often fails, and shows how integrated bioreactor control and data management help create scalable, reproducible processes from screening through scale-up.
