Project Management

Project management and good communication are essential to the success of a customized project. SAFC® provides world class project management.

Each project is unique in terms of scope and challenge. However, we have found that a systematic approach using best practice at all of our worldwide locations is key to meeting customer expectations. Our process orientated approach to project management ensures that from the time of an enquiry to the delivery of a project, you are accompanied by a dedicated project manager.

Our project managers are single points of contact, knowledgeable about all aspects of the project. Their qualifications range from Masters Certifications in Project Management to PhDs in several scientific disciplines.

SAFC's project management team starts with an evaluation of a technology package. Once feasibility is determined, the project is costed via a thorough review of the information against an agreed upon set of deliverables outlined by the customer. SAFC then submits a comprehensive quotation against the required deliverables.

Once a quote is accepted, a project team is assembled and the communication process begins. A kickoff meeting is initiated and regular written updates are provided to update the customer on the status of the project. To streamline communications, a single point of contact is assigned to each customer program. All SAFC project managers work closely with the business development teams and make sure customer needs are fully understood.

Projects are multidisciplinary in scope: unconditional teamwork is critical to success. The project manager is responsible for all the functional groups required to complete the project: R&D, Analytical, Manufacturing and Regulatory as required. We do not over-promise or under-deliver.

You will be confident when partnering with SAFC, whether you are in need of an analytical standard or require development and manufacturing of difficult synthetic target.
