Smileactives®

The Smileactives® manufacturing transfer program required the team at Build by Boyd to relocate commercial scale mixing, filling, and labeling manufacturing lines from the Oral Care Products manufacturing facility into ours. The team constructed new wet labs for research and development, inspection, and testing and then transferred the associated lab equipment. As part of the equipment relocation process, the team at Build by Boyd worked closely with the Oral Care Products team to optimize the production process for greater efficiency. 

Smileactives® is manufactured with a proprietary formulation of various chemicals and liquid media. Our supply chain management team collaborated closely with the Oral Care Products team to successfully transfer material sourcing and supply chain management responsibilities alongside the manufacturing operation. The team at Build by Boyd works closely with the Oral Care Products team to gather demand forecasts and ensure an adequate pipeline of raw materials for ongoing commercial production. Our supply chain management team qualified alternate chemical suppliers and alternate chemical distributors to support Oral Care Products' ongoing business continuity planning. 

Oral Care Products successfully transferred the commercial manufacturing operation for the Smileactives® product line. The new manufacturing operation provided enhanced process efficiency and material yields for Oral Care Products. The transfer of Smileactives® was an important step for Oral Care Products which allowed their team to shift their focus to research and development and product innovation.
