Reformulation confidence starts upstream. See where your team stands.
A 12-question self-assessment for R&D and product development teams. In about five minutes, see how your process performs across three areas (visibility, velocity and validation) and where late-stage surprises are most likely to start.
Most reformulation problems don’t start at QA. They start earlier: a formulation decision made without current compliance data, a supplier specification change that reaches one team but not another or a new market threshold that takes weeks to trace back to affected SKUs. By the time the issue surfaces at pilot or near launch, the fix is slower and more expensive, and the cost often gets absorbed as routine rework.
This assessment helps you see where those gaps sit in your own process, so your team can address them deliberately rather than discovering them under deadline pressure.
What the assessment measures:
Visibility. Does your team have compliance, specification, sourcing and cost data at the point of formulation, or does it arrive later through separate checks?
Velocity. Can your team model an ingredient substitution or respond to a regulatory change without stalling at the data-gathering step?
Validation. Are compliance and quality issues caught during formulation, or discovered at QA, pilot or close to launch?
What you’ll receive:
- An overall reformulation confidence score (out of 48), plus a score for each of the three areas
- An interpretation of what your score means for how your team handles both routine reformulation and fast-moving regulatory or supply changes
- Your priority focus area, meaning the part of your process where improvement is likely to deliver the highest return
- Three reflection questions to bring to your next team discussion
- Send a copy of your results to your inbox once you finish, so you can revisit them or share them with Regulatory, QA and Procurement colleagues
