A passport is only as reliable as the data behind it
DPP data crosses procurement, operations, sustainability, IT and your suppliers. In most companies, someone still gathers it by hand.
Where the data lives
- ERPProduct identifiers, bills of materials
- Supplier filesMaterial and component data
- Shared foldersCertificates and test reports
- SpreadsheetsEverything that fits nowhere else
Today
Someone gathers it by hand
- Chases suppliers for missing fields
- Copies data between files and systems
- Checks which certificate is the current one
What it risks
- Incomplete passportsMissing fields found late
- Endless supplier chasingFor every product and every update
- No change historyHard to show what changed and why
Most companies have started. Few are ready.
The EU's Digital Product Passport Registry went live on 20 July 2026, covering product groups from textiles and steel to furniture and construction products. The first deadline, for certain large batteries, is 18 February 2027.

A small survey of companies already engaging with the DPP, so read it as a signal of where the effort goes, not a benchmark.

Where to look first
Your next three steps
What working with us would look like
A directional self-assessment, not legal or compliance advice.
What your score means
Score 0 to 6
Structured foundation
Your product data foundation is taking shape.
Scope, ownership and data flows look reasonably clear. The next step is to test one product family end to end.
Score 7 to 13
Important gaps
You have useful data, but the flow isn't reliable yet.
Product information exists, but it still depends on manual collection, uneven supplier inputs or unclear ownership.
Score 14 to 21
Fragmented readiness
Your DPP effort is likely to become a data-reconciliation project.
Important product data is spread across systems, suppliers and people. Start with a narrow data model and one product family before choosing a full platform.
A passport should connect your data, not add another system
Start with what product information you already have, what's missing and where it lives. Then connect the existing sources into a reliable passport workflow, one product line at a time.
Map the required information
The product, material, supplier and compliance data each passport needs.
Connect the sources you already have
ERP, spreadsheets, supplier files and the other tools that hold it today.
Build the missing passport layer
The workflow, validation or interface needed to manage and publish reliable passport data.
