Sato Corporation is pleased to announce that it has partnered with RadarLab Inc. to begin offering a Digital Product Passport (DPP) implementation support service.
This service targets companies in industries such as automotive, steel, aluminum, furniture, apparel (textiles), and home appliances, which are expected to be subject to DPP regulations. It provides support ranging from organizing the data necessary for DPP compliance to designing tag and label specifications to link products and parts with data, and designing on-site operational procedures.
For a small-scale start, we complete the process from current data organization to presentation of analysis reports in approximately one month. Companies can quickly identify challenges and priorities for DPP implementation and proceed with considerations for PoC or full-scale deployment.

In Europe, in particular, there is a growing movement toward institutionalizing Digital Product Planning (DPP), which involves digitally managing and sharing information throughout the entire product lifecycle. As the range of products covered and the required information items are expected to expand gradually, companies will need to establish systems to appropriately manage and utilize product information, material information, supply chain information, and information on environmental impact and recycling.
On the other hand, in many cases, the data necessary for DPP compliance is scattered across departments, systems, and suppliers. Furthermore, even if the necessary data is organized, designing the operational procedures for actual products and parts—such as what tags and labels to attach, when, who, and at what stage to attach them, and how to read and update them—remains a challenge. To make DPP compliance an effective initiative, in addition to organizing the regulations and data requirements, it is necessary to create a system that reliably links products and parts with information and can be continuously operated in the field.
