productize

Turn into merchandise

Productize means to transform something—a service, skill, or internal tool—into a standardized product that can be sold or scaled.

A consulting firm might productize its expertise into software; a company might productize an internal process into a marketable offering: We need to productize this before we can sell it to other businesses.

The word carries business jargon overtones.
