Abstract
A system and method for the simulation and modeling of biopharmaceutical batch process manufacturing facilities is described herein. The system and method includes the steps of identifying a production process sequence, the production process sequence including a plurality of zsubprocesses. At least one of the plurality of subprocesses includes a plurality of batch cycles, each of which includes a plurality of unit operations. Each of the unit operations are identified by unit operation identifiers. Next, the system and method retrieves the process parameter information from a master list for each of the unit operation identifiers in the process sequence. The process parameter information includes information on discrete tasks associated with each unit operation. After the steps of identifying and retrieving, the system and method generates a process schedule that identifies initiation and completion times for each of the discrete tasks in the process sequence.
