Velico®, a clinical-stage MedTech company based in Massachusetts, was contracted by the UK Army and NHSBT to establish a dry plasma production facility in Cambridge, UK. The project required seamless coordination for the shipment of specialist equipment from the USA and Europe, along with a white glove delivery service.

Challenge

Velico needed to coordinate the transport and installation of specialized equipment for the facility, sourced from multiple locations (USA and Belgium) under strict timelines. White glove delivery and onsite collaboration with engineers from Velico and NHSBT were crucial.

Solution

LifeSci Logistics implemented a comprehensive supply chain solution, including:

  • Importation and forwarding from manufacturers in the US and Belgium.
  • Equipment consolidation and warehousing in Dublin.
  • Customs clearance management, ensuring compliance with all tax and regulatory requirements.
  • White glove delivery and installation in coordination with commissioning engineers on-site.

Result

The world’s first production facility for spray-dried plasma was delivered on time, on budget, and fully operational, marking a significant achievement in medical technology logistics.

LifeSci Logistics exceeded our expectations, handling every aspect with precision. Their seamless coordination and attention to detail ensured a flawless, on-time delivery of this mission-critical project.
