FrommConnect recently collaborated with multiple engineering design firms to support a global pharmaceutical manufacturer in upgrading its obsolete building and environmental monitoring systems. Facing outdated technology and scarce replacement parts, the customer launched a time-critical migration strategy and sought skilled, flexible partners to ensure the project’s success.
The project involves fabricating and assembling control panels designed to consolidate environmental data. These panels gather input from various sensors and signals transmitting the data to a central hub. This setup empowers the company’s monitoring personnel to make proactive, informed decisions to safeguard production and quality from environmental changes.
FrommConnect’s UL-certified panel shop delivers complete, end-to-end services. We specialize in designing and producing control panels tailored to each customer’s specific requirements, ensuring compliance with standards like NFPA 70, 79, IEC/UL 60947-4-1, and UL508. Our expertise helps reduce the customers’ labor costs while maintaining exceptional quality and flexibility.
For this pharmaceutical project, FrommConnect successfully delivered the first set of 10 panels, each measuring 48 x 30 inches. Using our automated Hoffman ModCenter 293, we achieved precise and consistent cuts for every panel. The panels were then assembled, wired, and tested to ensure optimal performance.
This project goes beyond a single delivery. Over the next several months, FrommConnect will replicate this process for 11 additional buildings. To accommodate the customer’s timeline, we are leveraging our warehouse facilities to store both “partial build” and finished panels, shipping them on demand. This flexible approach keeps the project on schedule while reducing logistical complexity for the customer.
