Manufacturing, Quality and Process Team

Approach

How Viltis responded

A global healthcare company had to recommission, qualify, and reopen a manufacturing site to produce COVID-19 test kits. A surge in variant cases had driven testing demand up, and this site supplied 100% of the test kits distributed worldwide. The client needed more than 20 Quality, Manufacturing, and Process Engineers, and needed them quickly.

Impact

What the engagement delivered

Viltis identified, vetted, and deployed the team on a compressed timeline, placing more than 20 engineers with the technical and regulatory background the work required.

They recommissioned and qualified the site against regulatory standards and prepared it for high-volume production. Fast onboarding is what let the client start scaling instead of waiting on recruitment.

The site came back online on schedule. The client ramped COVID-19 test kit production against the demand that had built up globally, and kept supply consistent through a period when consistency mattered.
