Our Services

Comprehensive Solutions from Competitive Insights to Commercialization

We provide end-to-end solutions to help you analyze, develop, and optimize formulations across pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food, and nutraceuticals.
Our services cover comparative studies, custom formulation development, and regulatory support, ensuring your products meet global standards and reach the market faster.

Core Services

  • Comparative Studies – Competitive product reverse engineering, dissolution/performance comparison, and stability testing.

  • Formulation Development – Custom formulation design, process optimization, and scale-up validation.

  • Regulatory Support – Documentation and compliance guidance for FDA, CFDA, EMA, and other global agencies.

  • Commercialization Support – Seamless tech transfer and manufacturing readiness for market launch.

Step-by-Step Process

01. Discovery & NDA

We begin by understanding your goals, sample requirements, and timelines.
A non-disclosure agreement (NDA) is signed to ensure confidentiality and regulatory compliance.

02. Scope & Proposal

Define the scope of testing or development, key milestones, and project budget.
Align success criteria and deliverables before project kickoff.

03. Method Setup & Sample Intake

Develop or transfer analytical methods and register samples.
Conduct risk assessment and experimental design using QbD (Quality by Design) and DoE (Design of Experiments).

04. Project Execution (Comparative / Formulation)

Perform competitive product analysis, dissolution/performance testing, and stability studies.
Iterate formulation screening and small-scale trials for optimization.

05. Review & Optimization

Jointly review data and identify gaps.
Refine formulations and processes while preparing regulatory-ready data packages.

06. Scale-Up & Validation

Transition from pilot to commercial scale with process qualification (IQ/OQ/PQ).
Develop SOPs, provide training, and support regulatory submission when required.

07. Final Report & Handover

Deliver a comprehensive final report, raw data, and formulation/process documentation.
Provide continuous support for post-project needs or next-stage collaboration.

What We Offer

Comprehensive formulation research, comparative studies, and regulatory support to accelerate product development and ensure compliance.

1. Comparative Studies

🧩 Competitive Product Reverse Engineering

Identify actives, excipients, and process clues via LC-MS/GC-MS/NMR/XRPD; benchmark performance and map IP risks to reveal optimization paths.

📈 Dissolution / Performance Comparison

Compare release/uptake, rheology, sensory or functional KPIs under matched conditions; establish equivalence/IVIVC to guide formulation decisions and filings.

🛡️ Stability Comparison

ICH-guided accelerated/long-term studies across temp/RH & packaging; model shelf-life, failure modes, and mitigation for reliable market performance.

2. Comparative Studies

⚗️ Formulation Development Services

From concept to prototype: excipient screening, QbD/DoE design, critical attributes control, and built-in stability for pharma, cosmetics, food, and supplements.

🛠️ Process Optimization

Scale lab wins to plant: map CPPs/CMAs, raise yield & consistency, cut cycle time, and lock reproducibility for cost-effective production.

📜 Regulatory Support (FDA/CFDA/EMA)

Regulatory-ready methods, CTD/PIF dossiers, validation protocols, and claims substantiation to accelerate compliant submissions and approvals.

🏭 Scale-Up & Validation

Pilot-to-commercial tech transfer with IQ/OQ/PQ, SOPs, and training; de-risk launch with proven, auditable processes.

Latest Case Studies

Industry & Background:
A fast-growing skincare brand needed to shorten product launch timelines while keeping up with global competition.

Challenge:
They lacked visibility into competitor formulations and struggled with stability issues for new active ingredients.

Solution:
We performed reverse engineering of benchmark competitor products, followed by custom formulation design using our QbD-based development process.

Result:

  • Product development cycle reduced by 40%

  • Stability issues decreased by 60%

  • 3 new products launched successfully in 9 months

“Helped a cosmetic brand reduce product development cycle by 40% through reverse engineering and optimized formulation design.”
