Core Features
Siemens DPP4.0 provides a central system for managing product passport data across organisations and product lifecycles. Initially demonstrated through battery passport applications, its architecture is designed to support additional product categories as regulatory requirements develop.
Digital Product Passport Creation and Management: Creates, manages and exports structured product passports containing product identification, material composition, manufacturing, sustainability and lifecycle information. Supports individual components and complex product assemblies.
Enterprise Data Integration: Connects existing product lifecycle management (PLM), enterprise resource planning (ERP) and manufacturing execution systems (MES) through APIs and standardized interfaces, reducing duplicate data entry.
Supplier Collaboration and Data Collection: Enables manufacturers to collect product, material and compliance information from suppliers and share relevant records with customers and other supply chain participants.
Interoperability and Standardized Data Exchange: Uses open APIs and Asset Administration Shell (AAS) models aligned with Industrial Digital Twin Association standards. Supports industrial data-sharing ecosystems, including Catena-X and Chem-X.
Product Lifecycle and Hierarchical Data Management: Organises information across interconnected product levels, such as vehicles, batteries and constituent materials, supporting traceability and structured data exchange throughout the product lifecycle.
Closing Insights
Siemens developed DPP4.0 to address growing demand for standardized product information and EU regulatory compliance. Its early applications include a battery passport proof of concept with BMW using AWS cloud infrastructure and a pilot with Siemens Energy focused on supplier data collection, regulatory requirements and secure information sharing.
In April 2026, Siemens and Accenture signed a memorandum of understanding to explore collaboration on digital product and battery passports. The initiative brings together Siemens' industrial software expertise and Accenture's enterprise integration capabilities.
DPP4.0 is commercially available as a SaaS solution. Siemens offers onboarding packages followed by company subscriptions ranging from XXS to Enterprise, with allowances for users, API access and passport volumes. Pricing is available on request.
The platform is particularly relevant to manufacturers preparing for mandatory EU battery passports from February 2027 and subsequent product-specific requirements under ESPR.
