As the Digital Product Passport (DPP) becomes one of the pillars of the European strategy for a circular economy, companies face a significant challenge: collecting, structuring, updating, and making accessible technical, logistical, regulatory, and environmental data for each product placed on the market. This paradigm shift requires robust, interconnected digital tools that comply with constantly evolving regulatory requirements.
It is precisely in this context that the software solutions developed by Agoragroup come into their own. With Agoraplus, Agoserve, and GCPlus, repair professionals, manufacturers, and distributors have a complete digital ecosystem to meet the DPP requirements effectively, securely, and in a structured manner.
Centralizing and structuring data with Agoraplus
Agoraplus is one of the most widely used platforms in Europe for managing spare parts and technical documents in the household appliance sector. It centralizes an extensive amount of product data (exploded views, nomenclatures, technical sheets, prices, availability, etc.) in direct connection with manufacturers.
In the context of the DPP, Agoraplus enables:
- Structuring product information according to standardized formats,
- Providing quick access to the data necessary for diagnosis and repair,
- Updating critical information in real-time (technical modifications, safety, end of availability, etc.).
In other words, Agoraplus becomes the digital foundation of the DPP for spare parts and technical data.
Tracking and tracing interventions with Agoserve
The DPP is not limited to the product sheet: it must also integrate the history of repairs and maintenance operations. This is where Agoserve, Agoragroup’s Field Service Management solution, comes in.
Agoserve allows authorized and independent service centers to:
- Plan and track each intervention on a device,
- Document the parts replaced and the operations carried out,
- Automatically feed the product’s digital passport.
Thanks to this solution, field data becomes usable, reliable, and integrable into DPP platforms, ensuring transparency and traceability throughout the device’s life cycle.
Ensuring compliant warranty management with GCPlus
Warranty and contract management is also a key link in the digital passport, particularly to prove the repairability or conditions for extended use of equipment. GCPlus, Agoragroup’s solution dedicated to manufacturer warranty management, plays a fundamental role:
- Tracking activation dates, warranty extensions, and after-sales service events,
- Automating reimbursement flows,
- Securely transmitting information to the DPP.
Thus, GCPlus enhances the reliability of contractual data and facilitates its integration into a more responsible and regulated repair ecosystem.
An urgent and strategic implementation
The gradual implementation of the DPP requires industrial players to rapidly transform their information systems. Agoragroup’s solutions not only ensure compliance but also make it a means for efficiency and competivity.
Adopting these tools means:
- Gaining fluidity in data sharing,
- Enhancing customer satisfaction through a better repair experience,
- Actively participating in a digital, responsible, and sovereign circular economy.
Faced with the climate emergency and regulatory pressure, the DPP can no longer wait. It is time for French companies to equip themselves without delay. Agoragroup’s solutions are already ready: reliable, proven, and aligned with European challenges.
