How to use it
Treat the result as a question-framing tool, not a supplier quote.
The comparison isolates recurring production-cost assumptions so a team can see which variables matter most. It deliberately excludes commercial uplift and costs that vary too much to infer responsibly.
For a real scope, review one representative product, its source assets, required outputs, material accuracy, and reuse plan before extrapolating across the catalog.
