CONSULTANCY

Specialist activewear expertise,
inside your decision process.

VIVID Consultancy gives businesses access to specialist activewear judgement, strategic guidance and Senior Product leadership according to the level of involvement required.

It is designed for established brands, growing companies, founders already working with manufacturers, internal Product teams and businesses that need senior specialist direction without a full-time senior Product hire.

WHO IT'S FOR

The same depth of activewear expertise, engaged at the point where the business needs experienced judgement most.

Established activewear brands

Growing activewear companies

Founders already working with manufacturers

Internal Product teams

Heads of Product

Design Directors

Companies lacking senior specialist activewear expertise

Businesses that do not yet require a full-time senior Product hire

ENGAGEMENT MODELS

Three ways to access  senior activewear expertise.

01

Specialist Consultancy

For clients that need expert guidance around specific Product and development decisions while their own team, designers or manufacturers execute.

Potential areas

  • Fabric decisions
  • Fit
  • Construction
  • Factory communication
  • Sampling
  • Range decisions
  • Technical questions
  • Development troubleshooting

02

Strategic Consultancy

Ongoing strategic Product involvement for businesses requiring more regular senior review and decision support.

Potential areas

  • Range architecture
  • Seasonal planning
  • Product hierarchy
  • Development strategy
  • Supplier / factory decisions
  • Product reviews
  • Commercial Product decisions
  • Team guidance

03

Fractional Product Leadership

Embedded senior Product leadership without a full-time executive hire. VIVID becomes part of the client's senior Product decision-making structure for an agreed allocation of time.

Potential areas

  • Seasonal Product strategy
  • Range direction
  • Leadership reviews
  • Team guidance
  • Product and development decisions
  • Critical path review
  • Supplier strategy
  • Senior escalation
  • Cross-functional Product alignment

Fractional leadership is not outsourced garment design. Execution-heavy services such as CAD production, full tech pack creation, full collection design or ongoing sampling execution fall under Product or are separately scoped.

CONSULTANCY OR PRODUCT?

Guidance or execution.

Both access the same specialist activewear depth. The difference is who carries out the work.

CONSULTANCY

Choose Consultancy when your team is executing.

You have people, designers or manufacturers carrying out the work and need specialist expertise to guide decisions, review output and direct the critical path. VIVID provides judgement not production capacity.

PRODUCT

Choose Product when VIVID creates the work.

You need activewear strategy, collection development, design development, technical development or implementation executed end-to-end. VIVID takes responsibility for delivery, not just direction.
