The need for standardization of cell therapy manufacturing continues to be a critical driver of technological advancement and investments. Implementation of a scalable, integrated workflow can minimize open processes and reduce manual touchpoints, ultimately reducing manufacturing failures. New innovations in closed, modular, cell therapy-specific instrumentation enable the development of robust and reproducible, end-to-end manufacturing processes for commercial applications. In this article, we discuss solutions for standardizing manufacturing processes, and explain how strategic collaborations can help streamline the transition to the commercialization pipeline.
