Product Development in China

Spec-to-sample coordination with a technical tech pack. Sample rounds, tolerances, and packaging — negotiated in writing so the factory can actually build to it.

Scope

What’s included

  • Product brief and technical tech pack (materials, dimensions, tolerances, finish)
  • Packaging and labelling specification
  • Sample round management with pass/fail criteria per round
  • Bill-of-materials and cost breakdown review
  • Pre-production sample sign-off and factory readiness check

Process

From idea to production-ready

01

Discovery

Understand the product, buyer, price point, and non-negotiables. Turn that into a written brief.

02

Tech pack

Materials, dimensions, tolerances, colours, packaging, labelling — the level of detail the factory floor actually needs.

03

Sampling

Two or three sample rounds with named pass/fail criteria. Physical samples reviewed against the tech pack, not against memory.

04

Sign-off

Golden sample locked, packaging approved, BOM and cost confirmed — ready for a production PO.

Why work with Hansen

A quieter kind of sourcing — the one you actually wanted.

01 · Local

Shenzhen-based, PRD-wide

On-the-ground presence across the Pearl River Delta manufacturing hub — factories are hours away, not oceans.

02 · Independent

No hidden commissions

I work for the buyer, not the factory. Audits and quotes are transparent; incentives are aligned with your outcome.

03 · Technical

Spec-to-sample, in writing

Product briefs, tech packs, and pre-production samples with clear acceptance criteria — not verbal promises.

04 · Accountable

Pre-shipment QC

Independent inspections against AQL and your own spec, with pass/fail evidence — before the container leaves.

Questions buyers ask

Frequently asked.

Do you handle industrial design or CAD?

I coordinate with independent ID and CAD partners when needed. For most SKUs, a strong tech pack and factory-side engineering is sufficient.

Can you help protect the design?

Yes — NDAs with factories, staged information release, and (where the budget supports it) design patents or utility model filings in China.

What if the sample keeps failing?

Then it’s usually a brief problem, not a factory problem. We stop, tighten the tech pack, and often switch factories for the next sample round.
