ISPE Facility of the Year Awards Ceremony

The winners of the 2026 ISPE Facility of the Year Awards (FOYA) were officially honored last week at the FOYA Banquet and Awards Celebration during the ISPE Annual Meeting & Expo in Washington D.C. We are proud to jointly celebrate with our partner Bayer the success of the SOLIDA-1 project, which received two FOYA awards in the categories “Operations – Operational Excellence” and “Pharma 4.0™”.

SOLIDA-1 sets new standards in pharmaceutical manufacturing through its combination of modularity, flexibility, automation, and digitalization. As system integrator, we were responsible for the design, planning, delivery, and commissioning of the process equipment, including the development of the fully automated intralogistics system (Production Flow Control – PFC) as well as the seamless integration of equipment into the fully automated shop floor.

The ISPE Facility of the Year Awards are among the most prestigious recognitions in pharmaceutical manufacturing, honoring innovative achievements in facility design, construction, and operation, as well as celebrating the commitment of individuals worldwide to improve patient health.

Congratulations once again to Bayer and all project partners on this remarkable achievement. We are proud to have contributed to this award-winning facility.
