This Executive Guide was designed for Supply Chain, ESG, Quality, Procurement, and Legal leaders who need to move from DPP awareness to operational readiness.

Inside, you’ll find:

• A clear explanation of what Digital Product Passports really are beyond the QR code, including the role of product data, traceability, interoperability, and market access.

• The regulatory and market landscape shaping DPP adoption, from ESPR and sector-specific requirements to the broader trend toward product-level transparency across markets and borders.

• The core DPP data requirements organizations need to master including data scope, granularity, access rights, identifiers, interoperability, and lifecycle management.

• A practical framework for designing a DPP system, covering governance, architecture, supplier integration, scalability, and the critical build-vs-buy questions companies should ask before investing.

• A readiness assessment canvas helping organizations evaluate data availability, system integration, supplier maturity, regulatory exposure, and operational gaps before implementation.

• Execution-oriented guidance focused on turning DPP requirements into a functioning operational capability rather than a one-off compliance project.

• Real-world implementation examples showing how companies are already deploying DPPs in practice across different industries and supply chain contexts.

This is not another high-level overview of the Digital Product Passport.

It is a practical guide focused on the data foundations, traceability capabilities, organizational decisions, and execution challenges companies need to address to make DPPs work at scale.
