What is at stake.
Aseptic lines are finished only when sterility validation passes, and validation runs take weeks per line. The EPCM schedule shows equipment set but treats commissioning and validation as one milestone. Product launch dates with retailers are already set.
How we control it.
What our schedulers and cost engineers are doing on this project.
Validation in the baseline
IQ, OQ and PQ for each line are scheduled as real activities with durations, so the launch date reflects the work it depends on.
Commissioning levels
Utilities, process and filling equipment are tracked from L1 factory testing to L5 integrated runs.
Risk on launch
Monthly Monte Carlo analysis gives P50 and P80 launch dates per line, with the risks that move them.
Earned value
Engineering, procurement and construction are measured on one cost-loaded schedule, so CPI and SPI trends are visible by line.
Where it stands.
Mechanical completion feels like a finish. In aseptic work it is barely the halfway point.
