DPP readiness diagnostic

Tick what you already control. The score shows the likely effort before a QR/data-carrier pilot.

Your priority product families and EU markets are listed with volumes and critical suppliers. Yes No

You know which product data already exists: composition, materials, substances, repairability, weight, origin and certificates. Yes No

Each strategic supplier can provide documented evidence in a reusable format. Yes No

You have a stable product identifier per SKU, batch or serial number as needed. Yes No

You assessed QR, NFC or another data carrier on the packaging, label or product. Yes No

Someone owns data quality and updates after product changes. Yes No

Your website or catalogue can expose a public product page readable by users and crawlers. Yes No

You compared at least two options: PLM/PIM, traceability, QR generator or specialist consultant. Yes No

Readiness score: 0% High risk: start by mapping products, suppliers and compliance evidence.

Product data collection checklist

Start with a simple master file, then attach evidence. Exact requirements will depend on product category and applicable delegated acts.

Identification

GTIN/SKU, commercial name, product version
Manufacturer, importer, EU representative
Country of origin and assembly sites
Batch, serial or production date when relevant

Composition and durability

Materials, components and substances of concern
Recycled content, repairability, spare parts
Energy use or environmental performance when applicable
Care, disassembly, recycling or end-of-life instructions

Evidence and compliance

Certificates, test reports, supplier declarations
Measurement methods and validity dates
Internal validation owner
Product change history

Passport and access

Stable public URL by product or family
QR/NFC data carrier tested on real media
Public, professional or authority access rules
Update and archiving plan

Supplier request templates

Copy these requests into procurement workflows or purchase order annexes. Keep a trace of answers and evidence.

Material data request

Please provide detailed composition, material origin, known regulated substances, available certificates and evidence validity dates for the listed references.

Traceability evidence request

Please list manufacturing sites, critical steps, affected batches, quality-control documents and a contact able to confirm formulation or supplier changes.

QR/data carrier request

Please confirm label, packaging, engraving or instruction constraints that could host a QR code, plus media durability during normal use.

Prepare a complete request

QR and data-carrier readiness

Test QR readability after printing, folding, washing, abrasion or storage according to your product.
Prefer a resolvable, stable URL over fixed content inside the QR.
Provide a readable fallback: short product reference and accessible web page.
Document who can modify the linked page and when an older version must remain available.

Monetization placements ready

Discreet AdSense slot after diagnostic and near the footer. Activation through ADSENSE_CLIENT_ID and GDPR/CMP consent.

Tool and consultant cards are ready for tracked links, rel=sponsored and transparent labelling.

Solution comparison

The right choice depends on SKU count, supplier maturity and your existing systems. Sponsored or affiliate links are planned but disabled until accounts are provided.

Option	Useful when	Check carefully	Monetization
PLM / PIM	You manage many references, variants and internal approvals.	API, versioning, roles, DPP export, ERP integration.	Vendor lead-gen
Supply-chain traceability	You must prove origin, batches, suppliers and transformations.	Supplier collection, audit trail, evidence, access rights.	Affiliate/partnerships
QR generator / product pages	You want a fast pilot on a limited range.	Durable URL, analytics, redirects, CSV export, accessibility.	SaaS affiliation
ESPR/DPP consultant	You lack time or regulatory reading capacity.	Category experience, deliverables, method transfer.	Qualified lead-gen

Prepare your digital product passport before the data gap becomes urgent.
