Lowering Material Costs
SciTech Patent Art helped a global consumer products identify cost-effective solutions to match their needs and obtain substantial savings on manufacturing costs.
 
Client: A leading consumer products manufacturing and research company.
Business Context: Client requested SciTech Patent Art (SPA) to investigate materials used for capturing actives for a very specific purpose. Client requested SPA to conduct a patent search and investigate materials and processes used in manufacturing a specific product.
SPA Approach: This project demonstrated SPA’s capabilities in providing meaningful results to the client within a short period of time. Though the number of patent documents to be analyzed was high, SPA adopted a technique to meet client’s requirements both technically and timing wise.
Turnaround Time: The project was completed within a period of three weeks.
Results: The report generated by SPA allowed the client to actually identify a supplier dealing with alternative material for the said purpose. The interaction between the client and the materials supplier proved fruitful in terms of replacing the existing material for a cost resulting in substantial cost savings in the manufacturing process.
