Capabilities in Scale-Up & Technology Transfer

CMC Pharma provides comprehensive scale-up and technology transfer services to bridge the gap between small-scale development (such as RAMP prototypes) and full-scale GMP manufacturing. Our team specializes in developing and evaluating robust, reproducible processes that maintain product quality, reduce risk, and ensure regulatory compliance throughout every stage of production.

Whether transferring methods to an internal GMP line or an external CMO, CMC Pharma ensures consistent performance, process understanding, and data integrity, supporting smooth commercialization and regulatory submissions.

The Importance of Scale-Up & Tech Transfer

Scale-up and technology transfer are critical steps in turning laboratory-scale or prototype formulations into manufacturable, commercial products. Poorly executed transfers can result in:
  • Inconsistent batch quality
  • Production delays or increased costs
  • Regulatory deficiencies and inspection risks

CMC Pharma mitigates these risks by applying scientific rigor, regulatory insight, and operational expertise to ensure seamless transitions from development labs to manufacturing sites.
