NordCortex Product Development — Concept to Scalable Reality

Textiles, materials, wellness products, labels & packaging, and RFID carriers. We turn briefs into manufacturable, compliant, costed products — ready for scale.

01 · Discovery

Brief & Discovery

  • Clarify use cases, constraints, volumes, and target COGS
  • Voice of customer; risk & regulatory mapping per market
  • Define success metrics and first milestones
Claritysharp brief
02 · Roadmap

Roadmapping & Governance

  • Stage‑gate plan: concept → proto → SMS → PP → launch
  • RACI, templates, tooling & test plans, DPP/RFID readiness
  • Decision cadence across functions
Flowpredictable
03 · Specs

Tech Packs & BOM Integrity

  • Complete specs, tolerances, colorways, labeling & packaging
  • BOM version control; change management & approvals
  • Material tests: durability, colorfastness, wellness claims
