Platform architecture
What should a serious DPP platform actually do?
A useful DPP platform is a product-data and compliance system. QR generation is only one small part of the workflow.
Seven platform layers
Product master
Stable product records, identifiers and versions.
Supplier data
Structured upstream evidence and field ownership.
Compliance records
Declarations, tests and technical files linked to products.
Passport publishing
Public and restricted product information with data carriers.
Registry
Registration workflows for products in scope.
API & exports
Portable structured data for ERP, PIM and external systems.
Lifecycle
Versioning, maintenance and long-term availability.
DPPTool's product direction
The current site provides free browser tools and implementation resources. Hosted passports, bulk imports, supplier workflows and enterprise integrations remain roadmap features until they are genuinely available.
