Stone & Sage Standards
REGULATORY & CLAIMS STRATEGY
Build confidence into the process before compliance questions become launch delays.
The Hidden Cost of Late Alignment
When claims, substantiation, and regulatory thinking are introduced too late in the process, the cost is significant. Rewritten messaging, revisited formula choices, and launch timelines that slip all add up but may not be in the budget. The more common problem is not bad decisions. It is good decisions made in the wrong sequence.
Angie helps teams bring regulatory and claims thinking into the work earlier, where better decisions are easier and less expensive to make. Her fluency across technical, regulatory, and commercial dimensions means she can help R&D, quality, and marketing speak the same language before the stakes get high and the costs add up.
How We Support Your Team
Regulatory Pathway Guidance
Clarify what needs to be considered before momentum turns into avoidable risk. Know what questions to ask, when to ask, and who to ask.
Claims & Label Review
Pressure-test product language against the underlying technical and regulatory reality. Ensure what is said can be supported by what is in the product.
Substantiation Planning
Build clearer internal thinking around proof, documentation, and defensibility. This ensures claims are grounded in evidence, not aspiration.
Cross-Functional Alignment
Help R&D, regulatory, and marketing move from parallel work streams to shared decision-making. This is where launch delays and added costs are prevented.
WHAT GRAIN & GRACE CONSULTING BRINGS TO REGULATORY WORK
Angie’s background spans the scientific and commercial dimensions of regulatory strategy. She understands what the science has to demonstrate, what the label has to carry, and how to connect those realities before they become problems. She also understands the pressure marketing teams and leadership face, and how to build a claims framework that is both compelling and defensible.
