An Urgent Need to Support Vaccine Supply

Sanofi / Genzyme

Our pharmaceutical client required a fast turnaround so it could test a new packing line being used for Moderna COVID-19 vaccines.

The Problem

Businesses have come together in amazing ways to face the challenges of the pandemic. Sanofi—a global biopharmaceutical company—leverages its manufacturing capacity and expertise to support the global supply chain for three different COVID-19 vaccines, including Moderna's. The company is in the process of performing fill and finish for up to 200 million doses of Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine—a process that required a new packing line. Sanofi needed to test the line, but their order with another packaging vendor could not be fulfilled. 

Swatek received the urgent call for assistance at 6 pm on a Wednesday.
