Bringing Engineering to a New Level: ZETA’s Integrated Approach
ZETA provides the best-in-class services and customized solutions to specific problems of its customers. Relying on efficient concepts and with a strong emphasis on sustainability, ZETA manages projects of various size and complexity as supplier of process technology, engineering, or as general planner. In the following interview, Johannes Koch, Associate Director Business Line Engineering & Services, gives some valuable insights into ZETA’s integrated approach and reveals what he considers the key success factors in engineering and project delivery.
One of ZETA’s outstanding characteristics is the way the company combines its engineering force with its powers as project delivery partner. What is ZETA’s key to success in providing design & build solutions?
The pharma or biotech process plant has always been ZETA’s backbone and original focus. When we speak about integrated delivery, we tackle all aspects of such a plant across all project phases. Having vast experience in a variety of delivery models, ZETA consults and supports as early as a CAPEX project may need to be set up, looking at various options with or without a feasibility study followed by the canonical engineering phases.
Importantly, ZETA can then also fully deliver the process plant with all procurement activities, manufacturing in our inhouse shopfloors providing outstanding dynamic testing possibilities, transferring the plant to site, performing the installation works followed by SAT or CQV activities. Here, ZETA does not separate between an engineering team and a delivery team but stands for true end-to-end delivery with a one-team approach.
At ZETA, we do not just put specialists together, but we also clearly follow an integrated approach team-wise with the one-team strategy. We allocate the experts required to tackle the respective problem.
