Executive context
Fill-finish, storage, and distribution are now the critical path for vector programs. Missed temperature windows or packaging mis-specs can erase CMC gains, push out launch, and inflate COGS. Use this page to align operations with the scale-up trajectory outlined in the Viral Vectors report (capacity build-out, process adoption, and trial volume). itsallaboutpatents.com
Operational focus
• Fill-finish readiness: vial/stopper compatibility, sterility assurance, line speed vs. shear sensitivity.
• Storage: define temperature bands and excursion handling per vector type; model buffer stock.
• Distribution: lane validation, passive/active shipper selection, and monitoring for audit-ready chains.
• Cross-functional SLAs: QA release windows aligned to PPQ and market-entry dates.

Anchor your cold-chain plan to the report’s capacity signals (> $12B in facilities) and high-growth demand environment (>2,000 trials), then budget for redundant lanes in early launches. itsallaboutpatents.com
