Here, the path to the customer takes longer

Approvals, supplier qualification and test series make every sale longer. That’s why, for pharma and medtech, the module plans over twelve months instead of twelve weeks. In food and agriculture, samples and pilot batches count: a buyer purchases what they have tested in their own production.

In pharma and medtech, approvals and purchasing processes take longer. The module plans over twelve months there so the roadmap stays realistic.

No. Delivery readiness is a mandatory criterion of the starting segment – you state whether a product is approved. Regulatory checks are not part of this module.
