NOSK.space adds a learning library, factory directory and sourcing toolkit

NOSK.space, the sister site of NOSK.life, has expanded with a structured learning library, a searchable factory and supplier directory, an apparel job board and a sourcing toolkit of downloadable planning templates and calculators.

The learning library groups courses and media around garment technology, quality systems, lean manufacturing and sourcing. The directory lists manufacturers and service providers with capability and capacity detail so buyers can shortlist before making contact, and the job board carries apparel technical roles.

The sourcing toolkit includes a cost calculator, a sourcing plan template and a semester-length study plan, all downloadable as spreadsheets and PDFs. As on NOSK.life, everything is free of charge.

Progress and saved work stay on the reader's device, so no account is required to study or to use the tools.

“A buyer and a factory need the same facts in front of them before the first email. That is what the directory and the toolkit are for.”
