THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO TECH PACK DESIGN PACKAGES

Let’s talk about Tech Packs! Many of us may not remember precisely when we first had the idea for our fashion design brand. Some of us sit with our idea for months, even years, before we decide to turn our fashion design concepts into tangible garments. But something we all seem to remember are those initial, trepidatious steps towards opening up a fashion label

If you’re at this exciting juncture in launching your fashion brand, you may have started reaching out to both onshore/Australian manufacturers and offshore manufacturers. It’s normal in this early stage to enquire about pricing to manufacture your garments and to ask questions about the manufacturing process.

However, in order for a clothing manufacturer to create your fashion designs and cost out the work, from samples through to final product, they will require a Tech Pack. This set of specification documents provides a detailed blueprint of a final garment, including your bill of materials (BOM), flat sketches, trim, packaging and more.

It’s natural to feel overwhelmed by the fashion design process, especially if you’re still learning the industry vernacular and processes. While you can create your own Tech Pack (see our Tech Pack Template), it can save you time in the short-term and money in the long-run if you outsource its creation.

Each emerging fashion label has nuance to the level of complexity required within their Tech Pack. Based on our in-house fashion design teams’ experience, we have curated 3 Tech Pack packages to help you save time and money; Basic, Intermediate and Complex Tech Pack Packages.

INCLUSIONS:

• Black / White CAD Sketch
• Rendered CAD Sketch inclusive of 3 colourways
• Bill of Materials (BOM)
• Fabric, Pantone / Print
• Make & Construction
• Trims & Accessories
• Labelling & Packaging
• Specification Sheet measurements (Grading not inclusive)
• x1 Hour communication with the designer

ADDITIONAL SERVICES AS REQUESTED:

• Fabric sourcing
• Branding layout
• Print design
• Logo design
• Linesheet 

Visionise Tech Pack Package Pricing

Our Tech Pack Packages all come with the same inclusions; the price difference is based on the time required to complete your Tech Pack. After you provide your Design Handover, your dedicated Visionise Designer will determine if you will require our Basic, Intermediate or Complex Tech Pack.

You can review our Tech Pack Package pricing online. We also offer a range of other design services, such as fabric sourcing, website design, print & trim design and branding design. If you would like a customised Design Pack, which will include your Tech Pack, please contact us and we can create a custom package suited to you.

Why is my Tech Pack important?

A good Tech Pack mitigates risks for both the manufacturer and the designer by providing accurate and robust design details. Our Tech Packs are all designed to clearly advise the manufacturer of your requirements, helping to minimise the number of samples made and ultimately bringing your clothing designs to market faster.

A detailed Tech Pack makes it easy for the factory to determine the cost to manufacture your garments. It also helps to avoid unplanned price increases if vital design specifications are not initially included.
