The Fergera - Helmsman principle
Ferger [ˈfɛʁɡɐ] is an old german expression for ferryman or skipper.
We can show you first and then help you to help yourself:
Ferryman - We will get you there
Think of us as the ferryman, who will bring you to the other side. You don't have to know how to navigate. We will get you to your destination.
This might be the ideal situation for small biotech startups, that developed a promising formulation, but don't know about the details of the fill finsh process, for which we can provide the necessary development services.
Deck Hand
We will walk you through the whole fill finish process. It's so much more than a high level overview and provides you with the necessary insights into the complexity of process development. Hands on experience included!
Bosun
After completing this training you will know what to pay attention to, and judge the importance of various aspects of formulation and process parameters. Even more hands on training!
Helmsman - We teach you how to steer your ship
We can train you on all the necessary details you need to steer the ship yourself, so that you are able to develop the fill finish process yourself. No matter if you're small or large scale biotech: We can train your employees in everything from all the basics to the very details in the fill finish process, so that you can develop the process and run the machines most efficiently with reproducible outcome. So the main focus here is training your people.
While Deck Hand is mainly the entry level, sooner or later you will probably want to be able to run your projects with less and eventually without any external assistance. This will probably be the state, you're striving for in the mid to long term future by advancing up to Helmsman level.
And even further we don't let you down, when you need assistance. For non standard situations, we still have service options available for you and your business:
Pilot - We are your guide in difficult or complex situations
Whether it is through currents or dangerous waters, there might be situations, where you need help to avoid rocks. Consult us in those situations.
SOS - You're shipwercked?
We are your Search and Rescue team
Even if you're have to fight stormy seas or heavy weather, you're lost or encounter situations, where you don't know how to save your project: Consult us. We have a very long tenure track in successful troubleshooting: searching root causes and rescuing projects.
