Schering-Plough – Multi-Product Plants, Singapore
Project
This Multi-Product Plant (MPP) is a primary production facility to manufacture active pharmaceutical ingredients for new Schering-Plough products including Zetia®, a cholesterol absorption inhibitor. This facility is the key commercial bulk production site for this compound for the worldwide market.
Faithful+Gould was appointed for two multi-product plants, in 2000 and 2002 - MPP1 and MPP2 respectively, as project controls consultants, to provide fully integrated project controls services.

The Approach
- Project controls
- Cost management
- Scheduling
- Estimate validation
- Risk analysis
- Project support services
- The scope of work was let to a single main contractor on an EPCmV basis.
Outcome
The projects were successfully completed on time and within budget.
MPP1 was the first project that Faithful+Gould had undertaken with Schering-Plough in Singapore.
We were then appointed for the second expansion phase (MPP2) and the rest of Schering-Plough's major capital investment projects in Singapore.
