Digital Excellence

Organizations preparing for Digital Product Passport requirements face barriers that are as much cultural as technical. Readiness assessments evaluate practical capability—whether companies can generate, maintain, and publish DPP information at scale with adequate data quality, governance, and cross-functional execution.

These assessments focus on operational readiness excellence built on evidence. They identify critical-path constraints before they become blockers, separating "missing data" from "missing capability to manage data."

  • The assessment evaluates whether an organization has the practical capability to deliver Digital Product Passports reliably and repeatably. It measures maturity across strategy, data quality, technology architecture, and supply chain enablement—identifying critical-path constraints before they become blockers. Deliverables include a readiness profile, 90-day execution plan, and 12-month implementation roadmap.

  • Digital capability work examines whether organizations can support the architecture their product category demands—centralized, federated, or hybrid. The focus is on building blocks that enable fast compliance once regulations finalize: product data structures, integration patterns, supplier obligations, and evidence management. The approach treats DPP capability as operational excellence—a continuous discipline rather than a discrete project.

  • Architecture work addresses integration across PLM, ERP, MES, QMS, and supplier channels—separating "missing data" from "missing capability to manage data." The approach evaluates interoperability readiness, API maturity, and the capacity to publish and maintain product information across lifecycles. Technical assessments ground transformation in what is actually executable.

  • Advisory work draws from chairing UN/CEFACT UNTP Adoption and IEEE/UL 2933-2024 standards development. The focus is translating regulatory direction into organizational action, helping companies understand what EU Digital Product Passport requirements mean for business models and operating cultures. This work operates at the intersection of technical standards and strategic implementation.
