DPP Supply Chain Audit

Audit Steps: From Data Mapping to Technology Gaps

Step 1: Identify Key Data Collection Points

Map your supply chain to pinpoint sources of data required for the DPP:

  • Tier 1 suppliers: Material content (e.g., percentage of recycled plastic, source of cobalt).
  • Manufacturing facilities: Carbon emissions per production batch (ISO 14064).
  • Logistics partners: Transport emissions (GLEC framework).

A 2023 European Commission report found that 47% of companies lack visibility into data from suppliers above Tier 2—a significant compliance risk.

Step 2: Assess supplier capabilities

Assess suppliers using this scoring system:

Criteria Compliant () Non-Compliant ()
Data Accessibility APIs/EDI integration Manual PDF/Excel submissions
NFC Readiness Tags applied at origin No tagging infrastructure
Regulatory Knowledge Trained on EU DPP rules Unaware of SCIP requirements

Step 3: Analyze technology gaps

Check:

  • Legacy system limitations: SAP ECC6 cannot handle NFC data flows.
  • NFC hardware deficiency: lack of industrial readers (such as RFIDHY HY-R6100) for scanning on the factory floor.

Tool recommendation: NFC handheld device for field audit

RFIDHY HY-R6100 handheld portable RFID reader, multi-tag reading rate of 200Tag/s, 3.8V, 7200mAh polymer lithium battery. The outdoor open environment reading distance can reach 20 medidores. More than 40% higher than the current industry level.

Caso: An audit team used RFIDHY HY-R6100 readers to verify more than 5,000 farm Etiquetas NFC in Ghana, reducing data errors by 40%.

Case study: Danone found that 30% of suppliers were non-compliant

Company: Danone SA (global food manufacturer)

Desafío: Preparing for EU DPP authorization in the dairy supply chain.

Audit results:

  • 30% of milk suppliers lack digital carbon footprint records.
  • 15% of packaging suppliers were unable to provide recycled plastic certification.

Solución:

  • Deployed Etiquetas NFC at partner farms for real-time data capture.
  • Trained 200+ suppliers on SAP Green Token for automated reporting.

Resultados:

  • 100% Tier 1 compliance in 8 months.
  • 20% faster EPR submissions with NFC-enabled batch tracking.
