CleanSpace Strengthens Process Technology Capabilities with Addition of Andy Wilkinson as Director of Process Technology

CleanSpace, a nationally recognized design-build partner specializing in controlled and regulated environments, is pleased to announce that Andy Wilkinson has joined the company as Director of Process Technology.

With more than 36 years of experience supporting pharmaceutical and biotechnology manufacturing, Wilkinson brings deep expertise in aseptic processing, fill finish operations, process technology, equipment integration, facility planning, and operational readiness. His background spans the evaluation, design, implementation, qualification, and optimization of complex manufacturing processes, helping clients successfully navigate technical challenges while accelerating the path to commercial production.

As Director of Process Technology, Wilkinson will work alongside CleanSpace's engineering, design, preconstruction, and project delivery teams to strengthen the company's process-driven approach to facility development. His expertise will further enhance CleanSpace's ability to deliver facilities that are not only designed and constructed efficiently, but optimized for long-term manufacturing performance, regulatory readiness, and operational success.

"Andy represents exactly the type of expertise our clients are looking for as manufacturing processes become increasingly sophisticated," said George Wiker, Chief Executive Officer of CleanSpace. "His understanding of aseptic processing, manufacturing operations, and process technology strengthens our ability to deliver facilities that are engineered around how our clients actually manufacture their products. His experience will help us continue raising the bar for integrated project delivery."

Throughout his career, Wilkinson has served as a trusted advisor on greenfield and brownfield projects, supporting everything from process architecture and equipment selection to operational strategy, remediation, and qualification planning. His experience spans traditional pharmaceutical manufacturing as well as emerging therapies, including cell and gene therapy, vaccines, sterile manufacturing, and advanced compounding applications. He has also led numerous owner's representative engagements, helping organizations make informed decisions that balance operational performance, regulatory expectations, and long-term flexibility.

"At CleanSpace, we've always believed successful projects begin with understanding the manufacturing process first," said Glenn VandeGrift, President of CleanSpace. "Adding Andy to our team expands our ability to integrate process technology into every stage of project execution. His practical operational knowledge and technical leadership complement our vertically integrated model and create even greater value for our clients from concept to commercialization."

Wilkinson's addition reflects CleanSpace's continued investment in technical leadership and reinforces the company's commitment to delivering fully integrated solutions for the life sciences, biotechnology, pharmaceutical, healthcare, semiconductor, battery, and advanced manufacturing industries.

By combining process expertise with in-house planning, design, engineering, manufacturing, construction, validation support, and lifecycle services, CleanSpace continues to help clients reduce project risk, accelerate speed to market, and optimize facility performance from day one.
