• The International Society for Pharmaceutical Engineering (ISPE) awarded the Biologics Development Building of Bristol-Myers Squibb, designed by ARC/Architectural Resources Cambridge, with a global Facility of the Year Award in the Facilities Integration category.
• The award recognizes the integration of two facilities developed simultaneously on the Devens campus, the 230,000 square-foot Biologics Development Building designed by ARC, and the 131,000 square-foot Clinical Manufacturing Building designed by Clark, Richardson and Biskup.
• The Bristol-Myers Squibb facilities were cited as an outstanding example of how to design and integrate new capabilities within an existing plant. The Facility of the Year Awards were presented at a ceremony held during ISPE’s Quality Manufacturing Conference in Arlington, Virginia.
• The Biologics Development Building opened in January 2016 as part of Bristol-Myers Squibb’s multi-phase master plan for the 89-acre Devens campus. The four-story BDB includes labs and offices for approximately 200 employees on its first and second floors. A vacant third floor is designed for future expansion, and will house up to approximately 100 additional employees.

“We are proud to honor the eight winners who not only share ISPE’s commitment to innovation, they also promote pharmaceutical manufacturing technology by demonstrating creativity and excellence in facility design, construction and operations.”

— John Bournas, CEO and president, ISPE
