Digitale Produktpässe zur Umsetzung der Twin Transformation in der Bauwirtschaft: Anforderungen und eine prototypische Implementierung
摘要
With the Ecodesign Directive digital product passports (DPPs) will serve as a key instrument for promoting the circular economy across various domains. The construction industry is thus facing a twin transformation and undergoing a change in which digitalization and data integration are key to meeting the growing demands of sustainability regulations. This fundamental shift is rooted in the broader challenges of multiple transformations, linking technological, ecological and organizational changes. This article addresses the question of how a DPP system for the construction industry must be designed to enable transparency and reuse throughout the life cycle of buildings. Based on a systematic literature analysis, eight requirements are first derived from a regulatory, technological, and industry-specific perspective. These requirements are then translated into the development of a prototype DPP system. The prototype is implemented as a web-based application. It is based on a hierarchical information structure that presents data at the building, product, component, and material levels as needed by the different actors in the construction industry. The article presents a practical design for a interorganizational information system that promotes data-driven circular economy in the construction industry and creates design knowledge for the future implementation of the twin transformation.
