The primary subject matter of this case is continuous manufacturing and how it relates to the production of generic drugs. Students in accounting, management, and supply chain programs will benefit from the case. The case is appropriate for senior-level undergraduate courses and for first-year graduate students. This case can be taught within three hours of classroom time. Students will need two to three hours of outside preparation, depending upon their familiarity with supply chain issues and batch and continuous manufacturing.
