CSL Seqirus has reached a major milestone in the construction of its new cutting-edge manufacturing facility for vaccine and antivenom manufacturing. The $800 million Tullamarine-based facility is now at its highest point of construction known as “topping out,” which is marked by the completion of roofing laying on the building. The manufacturing facility will have CSL Seqirus vaccine adjuvant technology (MFS59) to manufacture seasonal and pandemic cell-based influenza vaccines.

When measuring multiple parts and the results are showing unacceptable variation, it is important to understand whether the manufacturing or the measuring process is at fault. If measurement accuracy is relied upon, one may be tempted to adjust a manufacturing process that is, in reality, accurate and under control. Gage stability implies different things in different contexts.

We’ve all heard the buzzwords to describe new supply chain trends: resiliency, sustainability, AI, machine learning. But what do these really mean today? Over the past few years, manufacturing has had to adapt to and overcome a wide variety of supply chain trends and disruptions to stay as stable as possible. Stability has become key in this post-COVID world, and will remain key moving forward.

In a world where new technology keeps popping up out of nowhere, it's easy to think that this new tech can solve any and all your manufacturing challenges. This is a dangerous assumption because thoughtless reliance on technology can become a liability. Yes, tech does makes work easier and faster, but we've learned in recent decades that projects can still fail if the new technology being used doesn't bring manufacturing, business, and go-to-market strategies together.
