Digital Product Passport

In an increasingly sustainable world, it is critical for companies to strategically and effectively pursue their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) goals. Tracking sustainability data, especially a company’s carbon footprint, is a social responsibility to protect our planet and a new dimension of economic competition. In addition to increasing regulatory requirements to offset and avoid greenhouse gas emissions, consumers are increasingly demanding more sustainable products and services.

With the cplace Solution Template Digital Product Passport, each cplace instance can track sustainability data, create individual product pages or passports, and document all ESG-related information with clear reporting. It provides the ideal starting point for creating a standardized interface for all ESG data and offers approaches for extensive integration into existing systems using the interfaces available in cplace. Within the Digital Product Passport, users can create components, enrich them with information and group them into products.

The Digital Product Passport is based on the basic functions of cplace and is therefore compatible with all program areas. Thanks to its simple data structure and the use of the single source of truth principle, it can be easily integrated into existing solutions and individually extended without a great deal of specialist knowledge. The workflow is intentionally kept simple so that no time is lost in training. Reports are then automatically generated for all products. Backup functions prevent duplicate groupings and guide the user through the interface.

Data can be easily entered or added to existing data models. It is easy to build products from components, and the reporting system is updated automatically. A change history and other convenient features help you stay organized and avoid accidentally bundling the same components into different products.
