1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
receiving, by a bioinformatics platform though a user interface of a process development tool in communication with a process development facility, user input specifying process design parameters that specify a plurality of variations of a process for transforming one or more input materials into one or more output materials;
generating a plurality of respective recipes for the plurality of variations of the process according to the process design parameters, including automatically converting one or more parameter values of each recipe into a standardized, equipment-agnostic format;
receiving, by the bioinformatics platform from a production facility, a facilities specification that represents properties and capabilities of each item of equipment of a plurality of items of equipment at the production facility;
receiving a selection of a recipe of the plurality of generated recipes representing a variation of the plurality of variations of the process generated by the process development tool of the process development facility to be transferred to the production facility;
performing a matching process between unit operations of the selected recipe and equipment represented by the facilities specification to convert each value in the standardized, equipment-agnostic format of one or more unit operations of the recipe into an equipment-specific production task to be performed by a particular item of equipment in the production facility;
generating a production plan having a plurality of equipment-specific production tasks for the production facility; and
providing the generated production plan to the production facility, wherein equipment of the production facility is operated in accordance with the production plan.
