Digital Product Passport (DPP) / product transparency tool
Supply chain traceability platform
Traced Systems DPP Platform
The Traced Systems DPP Platform is a B2B SaaS tool designed for issuing Digital Product Passports, tracking product lifecycle events, and enabling secure, verified data sharing across multi-stakeholder supply chains in regulated industries like apparel, home textiles, and furniture. It targets brands, retailers, suppliers at all tiers, auditors, logistics partners, and consumers, facilitating role-based access control and API-first integrations. Key strengths include blockchain-based data integrity, support for diverse sustainability impact data types, LCA imports, and alignment with EU regulatory requirements for compliance and traceability.
AI-generated from all supplier submitted data.

Chemical substance traceability
Chain-of-custody is a continuity capability; composition and substance traceability are depth capabilities. Neither replaces the other.
- Supplier visibility/supply chain mapping - The system stores structured information about suppliers beyond Tier 1 (e.g. role, tier, location).
- Product–supplier association - Specific products (styles, SKUs, batches) are linked to the suppliers involved in their production.
- Product composition / component traceability - Products are represented as structured compositions (e.g. components, ingredients) that can be independently traced to upstream sources.
Sustainability Impact categories
Impact data coverage describes which sustainability-related topics a platform can store and manage data for. It does not indicate the quality of the data, the methodology used, or whether impacts meet specific regulatory thresholds.
- Material attributes - (e.g. fiber type, recycled / biobased content, origin attributes)
- Chemical impact & compliance data - (e.g. restricted substances, chemical inventories, compliance status)
- Supplier processes & practices - (e.g. production processes, management systems, operational practices)
- Carbon & energy data - (e.g. GHG emissions, energy use, Scope-related data)
- Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) data - (e.g. environmental footprint indicators at product or material level)
Types of sustainability impact data
Impact data coverage indicates what topics a system can handle; traceability capabilities indicate how precisely that data can be linked to products, materials, and processes.
- Qualitative data - (e.g. yes/no answers, self-assessments, policy statements)
- Quantitative data - (e.g. numeric values, measurements, calculated indicators)
- Certificates & formal attestations - (e.g. certificates linked to suppliers, materials, or products)
- Verification & audit evidence - (e.g. audit results, third-party verification status)
- Calculated / derived indicators - (e.g. system-generated metrics based on underlying data)
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) handling
Product carbon footprint (PCF) calculations represent a single impact category and do not constitute a full Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), which covers multiple environmental impact categories across the product life cycle
LCA results from external tools can be imported and stored - (e.g. impact indicators calculated elsewhere);
Risk assessment support
Risk assessment functionality indicates whether a platform supports identifying, prioritising, or visualising potential sustainability or compliance risks. Approaches vary significantly between tools and may rely on user-defined criteria, predefined rules, or system-generated indicators. Risk assessments are intended to support prioritisation and decision-making. They do not in themselves constitute legal compliance or due diligence.
No risk assessment functionality;
Value chain actors involved in data exchange
- Brand / retailer users - (e.g. internal teams managing products, suppliers, or reporting)
- Tier 1 suppliers - (e.g. cut-and-sew factories, final assemblers)
- Tier 2 suppliers - (e.g. mills, dye houses, processors)
- Tier 3+ suppliers - (e.g. raw material processors, fiber producers)
- Service providers / auditors / certification bodies - (e.g. third-party verification or compliance actors)
- Logistics or downstream partners - (e.g. distributors, recyclers, end-of-life actors)
- Consumers or external stakeholders - (e.g. read-only access via QR/DPP)
Digital Product Passport (DPP) development activity
Developed and piloted a DPP platform for regulated supply chains. Delivered pilots in batteries and textiles, enabling DPP issuance, lifecycle event tracking, and role-based data sharing across ecosystem actors (incl. downstream circularity/marketplace use cases).
EU regulatory readiness
Regulatory readiness reflects how a provider monitors and responds to evolving EU sustainability and supply chain regulations. It does not constitute a claim of legal compliance, as regulatory scope and timelines are still evolving.
Roadmap is driven by EU DPP roll-out by sector. We monitor ESPR/DPP and sector rules (e.g., batteries) and align data models, access rights, and reporting capabilities to support compliance workflows and audit-ready information sharing across value-chain actors.
