  • Supportive Delivery: A people-focused approach that maintains safety without disrupting laboratory or production work.

We keep your environments safe so research and production can continue without interruption.

Proven, Trusted, Accredited

Our Life Sciences teams operate with GMP awareness, contamination control training and cleanroom competency pathways. Partnerships with qualified vendors support HEPA integrity testing, duct and high level cleans and water system works.

Supporting the Entire Life Sciences Lifecycle

  • Assured Compliance for Regulated Science

    Assured Compliance for Regulated Science

    We deliver GMP-aligned documentation, change management, deviation logging, CAPA and RCA. Training records, SOP adherence and audit evidence are maintained through controlled digital CAFM systems.

  • Optimising What Drives Scientific Progress

    Optimising What Drives Scientific Progress

    Condition-based maintenance monitors environmental controls for alarms, differential pressure, temperature and humidity. Scheduled deep cleans and rapid recovery cleans protect continuity, visual management and point-of-use methods.

  • Managing Complex Projects with Care

    Managing Complex Projects with Care

    Validated restart protocols, redundancy for HVAC and power, and contingency planning mitigate leaks, alarms or contamination events. Incident reporting and recovery actions are documented for QA review and aligned to strict remediation procedures.

  • Transparent Budgets that Safeguard Quality

    Transparent Budgets that Safeguard Quality

    Digital CAFM systems compliant to EU GMP Annex 11, providing accurate forecasting, lifecycle visibility, compliance reporting, audit trails and integrated training records. This transparency gives QA and operations full visibility of work delivered, competency evidence and audit-ready traceability.

  • Regulatory Standards for Controlled Spaces

    Regulatory Standards for Controlled Spaces

    Regulated environments depend on controlled, consistent and well-documented processes across laboratories, cleanrooms and production areas. Aligned SOPs, training evidence and compliance records reduce variability and strengthen confidence in QA review.

  • Documented methods, validated techniques and products, and cleanroom colleagues support reliable, compliant delivery in regulated environments. SOP-driven cleaning aligns to GxP and cleanroom standards, with gowning, material flows and segregation enforced to reduce contamination risk.

     

    Cleanroom techniques reflect classification and environmental monitoring needs, using particle-aware methods, validated disinfectant rotations, defined contact times and sporicidal regimes where required. These consistent, documented processes support clear governance and quality assurance.

     

    Critical utilities – including HVAC, HEPA integrity, WFI, PW and clean steam – are supported through qualified maintenance, calibration and inspection-ready records. Change control, CAPA, and deviation support are aligned with QA teams and reinforced by waste, biohazard, and chemical-handling controls.

     

    Outcome: Reliable, well-structured services that protect regulated environments and deliver inspection-ready laboratories and GMP suites.

  • Scheduling, workflow design and smart resource planning maintain availability in cleanrooms, laboratories and production suites without compromising classification or data integrity. Planned deep cleans and filter changes align with shutdowns, supported by rapid recovery cleans after interventions.

     

    Condition-based maintenance stabilises critical environments by monitoring AHUs, differential pressure, temperature, humidity and alarms. Point-of-use methods reduce disruption for technicians, reinforced by 5S practices and visual workflow management in shared spaces.
