Apogee is the prime contractor for the upgrade of the USP 797 rooms to USP 800.

The pharmacy will be expanded to provide new, compliant compounding laboratory areas, an upgrade resulting in improved circulation, elimination of congestion throughout the space, and the ability to accommodate increased capacity and productivity.
