Turning Your Ideas
Into Reality
Brilliant ideas often remain unrealized unless carefully guided through essential stages of the innovation process, ultimately converting them into marketable, manufacturable products. Recognizing that each individual and idea is unique, we at Procurify collaborate with you to determine which steps below are necessary for successfully launching your product.
The Critical Steps
- Preliminary Feasibility Evaluation
- Design & Development Support
- Prototype & Model Creation
- Market Evaluation
- Intellectual Property Protection Strategies
- Presentation & Packaging Solutions
- Manufacturer Identification
- Low Volume Orders for Initial Launch
Let’s delve deeper into these steps:
Preliminary Feasibility Evaluation
Before investing resources in development, we consult with you to answer crucial questions, such as:
- Will the product function as intended?
- What will its appearance be?
- Who will purchase it?
- What price will they pay?
- How will it be sold?
Armed with this knowledge, you can confidently decide whether to proceed to the next stage.
Design & Development Support
Whether you have a simple sketch or a functional prototype, we can help you:
- Refine the design
- Produce specifications and drawings
- Discover innovative production methods
With comprehensive specifications, your product can be consistently manufactured to the highest standards. As the design owner, you are responsible for ensuring that your product meets local Australian standards. We can support you in this process, providing confidence in your product’s safety. Additionally, it’s wise to consider international standards if you plan to sell your product overseas, preventing potential redesigns as your business expands.
Prototype & Model Creation
Before committing to production molds or tooling, we offer cost-effective methods for creating mockups or prototypes to validate your design. With 3D CAD drawings, we can leverage cutting-edge 3D printing technology to produce life-sized or even fully functional items, particularly useful during Market Evaluation.
Market Evaluation
To succeed, a product requires a distribution sales channel to reach paying customers. We can help you quickly access mass distribution by directly approaching national retail chain buyers, tailoring a direct marketing option to your needs. This may include targeting international buyers to access larger or more niche markets. By utilising their understanding of customer buying habits, you can gain access to high-volume sales channels and valuable feedback on your product’s market reception.
Intellectual Property Protection Strategies
While it’s impossible to prevent idea copying entirely, we can help you adopt best practices to discourage it, minimise the likelihood of it happening, and stop it when it occurs. We begin by signing a Non-Disclosure Agreement at our first meeting, ensuring your information remains confidential. We discuss patents, trademarks, and design registrations, offering affordable protection options that suit your needs and budget. Before sharing your design with a factory, we require them to sign a custom Non-Disclosure Agreement, enforceable under the relevant country’s legal system. We can also help protect your product by strategically choosing component manufacturing locations, potentially retaining key components in Australia or dividing production among offshore factories. Final assembly can occur at a trusted third-party warehouse or back in Australia, ensuring you feel comfortable with the chosen IP protection level.
Presentation & Packaging for Retail
Through our network of industrial and graphic designers, we can assist with product presentation and packaging, including barcodes, blister packs, and display units, for an attractive retail presence.
Low Volume Orders for Initial Launch
We specialise in identifying suitable factories based on your projected initial order size, particularly relevant for innovations, to avoid excessive unsold stock.
Manufacturer Identification
Once the above steps are complete, we focus on selecting a reliable manufacturer. We maintain a portfolio of factories in Australia and Asia with whom we have worked. If a specialist skill set is required, we can search for an ideal match for you and your product. For more information on affordable manufacturing options, contact us today.
