Part 3 – Description/Specifications

3.1 Background

OBP currently owns and operates several preparative FPLC systems for purification of biomanufactured drug product as well as multiple analytical U/HPLC systems for product quality assessment in biopharmaceutical manufacturing research, however these systems all function as separate unit operations. We require an integrated real-time process monitoring solution for downstream manufacturing to support research for advanced/continuous manufacturing control strategies that would link the purification stream with automated sample UPLC analysis. Large molecule drug formulations are complex and the manufacturing process has an inherent variability. The regulatory challenges posed in this field require research to provide new regulatory understanding to assist review staff in their evaluation. These complex drug formulations require enhanced product assessment and control strategies during the manufacturing process. Advanced analytics provided by the requirement can facilitate review and enhance safety of drug products during manufacture. This allows for better support of emerging control processes for advances in Continuous Manufacturing of such drug products.

An ideal integrated solution will allow for automated sampling of multiple sites from FPLC(s) pre- and/or post-column with transfer for direct injection to 1 or more UPLC autosamplers for liquid chromatography analysis- minimal excess plumbing, easy to operate pumps and valves with intuitive timing control (software wizard), luer-lock or similar connections if appropriate, no intermediate liquid handler so as to more closely model a continuous and closed system.

The sampling should occur over several time points for the duration of purification and/or be triggered automatically from instrument detector feedback (e.g change in UV absorbance/conductivity/pH/pressure) or manually by operator.

Modification of native equipment operation software (such as Unicorn, OpenLab CDS/ChemStation, etc) to a SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) for all systems is acceptable if possible/available otherwise a third-party SCADA for this integration is acceptable. Other options may include a stand-alone automated fluidics control module with liquid handler for transferring samples from holding vessels between FPLC and UPLC injection. Software should be user-friendly for scientists/lab technicians with zero background in computer science/programming. Ability to meet technical outcomes and integrate solution with existing lab instruments will be considered more than cost alone. Off-the-shelf commercially available solution with established OPC (cross-instrument communication) capability preferred to a system that will require extensive development and testing before implementation.

3.2 Statement of Work/Salient Characteristics

The contractor shall provide the Government with a System that meets or exceeds the salient characteristics described below:

0001 REAL TIME PROCESS MONITORING (PAT) FOR DOWNSTREAM OPERATIONS (BRAND

NAME OR EQUAL):

Pricing will be firm fixed price.

Performance / Specifications: The instrument shall meet the following performance / specifications:

Supply/Services will include all of the following:

REAL TIME PROCESS MONITORING (PAT) FOR DOWNSTREAM OPERATIONS (BRAND NAME OR

EQUAL). Proposals should include itemized list and diagrams of any and all equipment to be supplied (plus new

3 | P a g e system control workstation) with size/weight specifications and description of integration plan/ connections with FPLC(s) and UPLC(s)

Integration with several existing lab-owned scientific instruments: at least 1 FPLC type and at least 1 UPLC type (specs for FPLC and UPLC listed below) currently in the lab must have control module/software connection and an integrated process stream for sampling during downstream protein purification steps as a result of this contract. An external variable pathlength spectrometer is also available for integration and may be used to detect protein concentration in samples of dynamic process fluid post FPLC column but before UPLC injection.

An ideal integrated solution will allow for multiple sampling sites from FPLC(s) pre and/or post-column with direct injection to 1 or more UPLC autosamplers for liquid chromatography analysis- minimal excess plumbing, easy to operate pumps and valves with intuitive timing control, luer-lock or similar connections if appropriate. The sampling should occur over several timepoints for the duration of a run and/or be triggered automatically from instrument detector feedback (e.g change in UV absorbance/conductivity/pH/pressure) or manually by operator. Modification of native equipment operation software (such as Unicorn, OpenLab CDS/ChemStation, Empower, etc) to a SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) for all systems is acceptable if possible/available otherwise a third-party SCADA for this integration is acceptable. Other options may include a stand-alone automated fluidics control module with liquid handler transferring samples from holding vessels between FPLC and UPLC injection. Software should be user-friendly for scientists/lab technicians with zero background in computer science/programming. Ability to meet technical outcomes and integrate solution with existing lab instruments will be considered more than cost alone.

Existing instruments must still be operational with original settings for research not utilizing integrated configuration.as the following; thus, the new system must include the following:

• Automated system should be able to prepare samples before UPLC injection (concentration adjustment, buffer addition, etc.) when required for analysis method, or be able to indicate sample information to UPLC for manipulation by native autosampler.
