Emergent BioSolutions has partnered with TAI Engineering to expand and maintain manufacturing capabilities at multiple sites in Maryland. As a result of several key contracts to develop COVID-19 vaccines, in particular, the task order with the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) to produce millions of vaccines. TAI has played a key role in the installation and maintenance of the equipment needed to meet Emergent’s client requirements.

Metrology Supervisor Emergent BioSolutions
TAI’s ISO17025:2017 Metrology, Instrumentation and Controls division, worked with Emergent’s Metrology team in an ongoing effort to calibrate utility, process and lab equipment to make sure all instrumentation are at peak performance throughout vaccine development. Calibration improves assurance of precise measurements required in research, development, and innovation.
TAI’s Technical capabilities include an electronic calibrations lab, instrumentation and controls, and inspection & test services. Every step of maintaining and calibrating equipment used in lab and manufacturing facilities is covered by TAI. For Emergent’s project, TAI performed and
provided As-Found and As-Left Calibration Services, provided calibration test standards and most recently provided our in-house Mass Flow Meters that allowed Emergent to stay in production.
