The Challenge

An international biotechnology company focused on CAR T-cell therapy needed a partner to staff approximately 20 individuals for their QC and QA departments for a newly built manufacturing site in the Netherlands. Their requirements included: 

  • Attracting highly qualified and experienced staff  

  • Flexibility for rapid up- and downscaling (where applicable) 

  • Fast response times – all individuals needed to be placed within a few months  

  • Strong local presence and network 

The Solution

In the initial phase, the facility partnered with Oxford to insource QC and QA personnel. Oxford aided the client by offering its niche expertise and skills in the following areas: 

  • Environmental Monitoring 

  • Sterility 

  • Biochemistry 

  • Raw Materials  

  • QMS 

  • Batch Record Review 

  • Dispositioning 

  • “Shop Floor” 

  • Cell Therapy Specialists 

  • Warehousing 

  • Incoming Goods 

  • Sample Coordination 

The Result

Oxford successfully contributed to the start-up and growth of the company. After the initial QC and QA project, the collaboration was expanded to all laboratory, manufacturing, and quality-related positions in a contingent labor program, establishing a long-lasting relationship and fulfilling 79 assignments over four years.
