Delivering complex projects to address complex needs
When building sophisticated pharmaceutical/biopharmaceutical or advanced manufacturing facilities, DPR knows how to fit all the pieces together to get the facility up and running—fast. We take time to understand the intricacies of our customers’ businesses, tailoring each project to accommodate the unique mosaic of equipment and processes that must work together from commissioning, qualification and validation to facility startup.
We don't just erect steel and concrete structures and call it a day. We partner with you to focus on what happens inside each building, diving into the details so owners can realize their business visions for their facilities.
Understanding and prioritizing owners’ needs empowers DPR to shepherd projects from groundbreaking to commissioning with as little time and money invested as possible. And we build with scalability in mind so that you’re prepared to pivot and grow when demand for your product surges.

Simultaneous Equipment
Procurement and Construction
In the manufacturing industry, equipment procurement and design/construction often happen simultaneously.
Our relationships with original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and our virtual design and construction (VDC)expertise allow us to manage these critical aspects of the project smoothly, even when that requires starting construction before all equipment specs are in hand.

Importance of CQV
When it comes to commissioning,
qualification and validation, our manufacturing teams have one goal in mind:
to deliver a facility that is transparent and predictable to the Owner and
operators. We know how to make sure all systems are integrated, functioning
properly, and tuned for optimal conditions to maximize the performance and
minimize the cost of the facility.
