Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. announced today it was awarded a contract to expand the Novartis Pharma S.A.S. Biotechnology Center in Huningue, France.

Under the terms of the agreement, Jacobs is providing engineering, procurement and construction management (EPCM) services to increase the sites production capacity by 70 percent and create a second line of purification that allows for multiple drugs to be manufactured simultaneously.

Already one of the worlds largest production facilities for monoclonal antibodies from mammalian cells, the expansion project adds cell culture bioreactors to the site.
