Biomanufacturing readiness levels [BRL]-A shared vocabulary for biopharmaceutical technology development and commercialization.

ABSTRACT: The Manufacturing Readiness Levels (MRLs) developed by the Department of Defense are well-established tools for describing the maturity of new technologies resulting from government-sponsored Research and Development programs, from the concept phase to commercial deployment. While MRLs are generally applicable to a wide range of industries and technologies, there is significant value in offering an industry-specific view on how the basic principles may be applied to biomanufacturing. This paper describes Biomanufacturing Readiness Levels (BRLs) developed by the National Institute for Innovation in Manufacturing Biopharmaceuticals (NIIMBL), a public/private partnership that is part of the Manufacturing USA network. NIIMBL brings together private, federal, nonprofit, and academic stakeholder
