Expert View: Expectations for the Emerging Vendor Landscape for the Digital Product Passport (DPP)

Digital Product Passport: Where to Start and Who Can Help

The Digital Product Passport (DPP) will reshape product compliance and customer services. Start by checking your existing systems. Find out which platforms are best positioned to deliver DPP value, and how to prioritize your next steps.

Why this matters

The EU Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) drives DPP adoption across industries. Companies can often start with existing systems to meet DPP requirements while improving traceability and sustainability.

Key recommendations

  • Audit your current IT environment (SCM, PLM, ERP) before seeking new providers.
  • Choose one platform as the primary data aggregator for the DPP.
  • Expect dedicated DPP vendors to emerge in 2026 and the first innovators on the customer side, with advanced ambitions beyond pure DPP regulatory requirements.
