In the dynamic world of life sciences, companies that embrace change and adapt to changing market needs are the ones that thrive. Our journey began in 1996 with a singular purpose: to change how the life sciences industry delivers facilities through robust commissioning. As we have grown and gained valuable experience with our clients, CAI has transformed into something much more significant, but at heart, we are still driven to improve how life sciences manufacturing is done. Keep reading to learn more about our company’s evolution and how CAI has become a versatile and innovative force within the industry.
From A (Seedling to an Oak or Roots to the Horizon)
Every company started with a vision that sparked its creation. With CAI, it was changing the validation process from a paper-generating exercise to a well-defined engineering activity that delivered working facilities. We treasure our company’s history and honor the ambitions that set CAI in motion. The innovation and progress we have launched continue in many ways today. As market trends shifted, technology advanced, and our client’s demands evolved, CAI has continued to develop and expand our offerings. Today, we are much more than a commissioning company; we take a holistic approach to help our clients meet their needs, from the people and process to plant efficiency and product delivery.
Diversifying Our Portfolio
Gone are the days when we solely focused on a single product or service. As many of our clients manufacture multiple products, we realized that our expertise could be applied to a broader range of solutions. Today, CAI provides diverse products and professional services, each catering to distinct customer needs. We have provided clients with over $1.25 billion in services through thousands of global projects, ranging from $1,000 in short-term projects to $35 million in comprehensive projects.

We invest in research and development, encourage our teams to think creatively, and push the boundaries of what we can achieve.

Our efforts in generative AI (Artificial Intelligence) are making that a reality for our company, and we can deliver for you.
Customer-Centric Approach
Our founding vision was customer-centric, and we continue to actively listen to our customers. We gain invaluable insights into pain points and aspirations by conducting surveys, participating in workshops, and engaging in discovery conversations. Armed with this knowledge, we tailor solutions to match their needs precisely, ensuring unmatched satisfaction and fostering long-lasting relationships. We celebrate the successes of all our clients and reflect on those successes with those long-term clients who have been with CAI for decades.
Corporate Social Responsibility
As we continue to grow and prosper, we recognize the importance of serving society and one another, which have become two of our foundational principles. We appreciate the role we have the honor of playing as we align with our clients to provide life-saving treatments to patients at record speeds. We continue to engage in philanthropic endeavors and champion eco-friendly practices with our partnership with DCs for Bees and Orchards in the Community. Ultimately, as the industry and world evolve, we commit to creating a positive impact beyond our business pursuits. Lastly, we serve each other as a CAI team, building CAI as a company that takes care of employee-owners, current and future.
Reflecting on our journey, we take pride in how far we’ve come. CAI’s evolution has been fueled by a potent combination of innovation, customer focus, diversification, and a commitment to building a better working world. We confidently embrace the challenges our clients face, knowing that our drive to develop and grow will continue to define our success and the success of those we serve.
