ABOUT KOMPETE

WHERE THE DECISIONS GET MADE
AN INTEGRATED APPROACH
THE FORMULA THAT CANNOT BE LICENSED
A blend is developed, tested and costed before anyone checks it against the monograph. The dose is out of range, the ingredient is not permitted in the category, and the work restarts after the money is spent.
THE FORMAT THAT CANNOT BE MADE
A flavour system that performs on the bench fails in the stick pack film, or a powder that flows in a lab blender bridges in production. Discovered at pilot, this costs weeks. Discovered at first production, it costs the run.
THE CLAIM THAT FORCES A REWRITE
Marketing builds positioning around a benefit the evidence does not support in the target market. Artwork, website and retailer presentations are already printed.
Kompete brings these disciplines together early, so the constraints are known while changing course is still cheap.


Scientific leadership, connected to commercial execution.
EXPERIENCE BEHIND THE WORK
Kompete combines more than twenty years of hands-on experience in regulatory affairs, formulation science, stability and analytical testing, and commercial manufacturing.
That range sits on both sides of a divide most consultants only see from one. Writing the formula, running the stability study, preparing the submission, standing on the floor during the first production run, and building the costing model that determines whether any of it makes commercial sense.
Those decisions are usually made separately, by people who cannot see what the others are constrained by. The result is products that are technically sound, licensable in their intended market, manufacturable at the volume required, and priced to work.

DIRECT EXPERTISE
Clients work directly with experienced technical leadership rather than being passed through multiple layers of account management.
INDEPENDENT RECOMMENDATIONS
Manufacturers, ingredients, suppliers, and regulatory pathways are evaluated around project fit and commercial objectives.
INTEGRATED EXECUTION
Regulatory, formulation, testing, manufacturing, packaging, and launch decisions are coordinated as one connected process.
FLEXIBLE ENGAGEMENT
Support can range from a focused technical review to complete concept-to-market project leadership.
CATEGORIES WE SUPPORT
Where the work has been
Supplements and sports nutrition, natural health products, functional foods and beverages, cosmetics and topicals, pet health, and specialized delivery formats including buccal systems, stick packs and liposomal encapsulation.
Why the range matters
A cosmetic claim problem and a supplement claim problem are the same problem in different regulatory language. A stick pack film failure and a sachet seal failure share a root cause. Working across categories means the pattern is usually recognizable before it becomes a delay.

GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE
