Life sciences

We're working with clients across the life sciences sector to deliver world-class research and manufacturing facilities. 

Navigating complexity to support growth in the life sciences sector 

The life sciences sector is at the forefront of innovation with activities spanning pharmaceuticals, biomedical technologies, diagnostics and digital health, animal health, agribusiness and more. To meet the challenges of globalisation, demographic change, consumer demand and fierce competition, the sector is retrofitting, expanding and building new facilities.  

Life sciences project management requires meeting pressurised timescales to get products to market quickly, while ensuring quality throughout. Scientific campuses and production facilities must comply with complex technical, safety and regulatory requirements. 

A range of building types needs to be catered to, from research laboratories, to offices, to complex manufacturing facilities. Specialised utility services and zones can be required, like high containment areas and clean rooms. 

Today’s facilities must also keep pace with advances in technology, accommodating changing operational requirements and the digitisation of operations, including advanced automation, artificial intelligence and modular delivery. 

Our clients' reliable and knowledgeable partner in projects and programmes 

We have decades of experience in life sciences project management, project controls, cost and commercial management and programme delivery. We have a deep understanding of the sector’s unique and challenging regulatory landscape and how to navigate it effectively. 

Our experts recognise clients’ evolving business priorities and desired project outcomes. With our proven early planning approach – combining technology, expertise and data – we set projects and programmes on course for success. At the same time, we maintain focus on value, quality and speed. 

In procurement, we engage with the market to source the right vendors and suppliers. We drive high performance through robust cost control and project management, while managing and mitigating risk. 

We understand the importance of validating delivery for business, financial and regulatory reporting processes. Throughout delivery, our benchmark data, market leading digital tools, industry insight and best practice learning all drive the highest standards of performance. 

Turner & Townsend and the design team shared the ambition and addressed the project challenges, including the site topography and building through the pandemic. They understood the purpose of the industry innovation hub, stayed true to the vision from initial design concepts to project completion, and brought it to life by creating a building that is a striking statement of ambition.
