Battery passport and digital product passport software
Battery passport software is what the 34 vendors in this category sell: a system that gathers product data from a supply chain, keeps it current and publishes the part each reader is entitled to see. They differ in where they start. Some begin at the raw material and work forward. Others take a finished bill of materials and handle only the publishing end.

What to check before you shortlist
The obligation is not the vendor's. From February 2027 a passport has to exist for several families of battery. Our guide to the requirement sets out which ones. What matters at the point of purchase is a question the scope does not answer. Who carries the duty? It stays with the company that places the battery on the market. Buying a platform does not move it. Put in the contract which fields the vendor produces and which ones stay yours.
Two questions separate the field quickly. The first is whether a vendor collects data from your suppliers or assumes you already hold it in one system. The second is whether the identifier it issues resolves on the open web or only inside its own portal. GS1 Digital Link is one published answer to the second. A vendor that cannot address both in a demo is selling a database with a code printed on top.
Treat the carbon footprint declaration as pending. The delegated act behind it has not been confirmed as adopted, so a vendor presenting it as a live requirement is running ahead of the text. Catena-X is the more useful thing to ask about. It is an automotive data space standard rather than a marketing badge. A certificate against it is a document you can ask to see.
Price is the least visible part of this category. Most entries publish nothing at all. A minority sell on subscription, so a budget comparison means putting one short brief in front of several vendors at once. Two other signals are cheap to check: whether a vendor will name a pilot it worked on and which data standard its output conforms to.
Questions buyers ask before they shortlist
Who is responsible for the battery passport, the manufacturer or the software vendor?
The economic operator that places the battery on the EU market. Article 77 of Regulation (EU) 2023/1542 puts the duty there and no supply contract moves it. A vendor provides the system, the identifier and usually the hosting. It cannot hold your legal responsibility for you. Agree in writing which fields the vendor generates and which ones you still owe before signing anything.
How long does a battery passport implementation take?
Longer than installing the software, because the slow part is data. Fields have to be collected from suppliers you do not control, reconciled across tiers and kept current after launch. Work backwards from 18 February 2027 rather than forwards from today. When a vendor quotes a configuration timeline, ask separately how long its existing customers spent gathering the underlying data.
Is the carbon footprint declaration in force yet?
No. It is pending and should be described that way. The requirement depends on a delegated act that has not been confirmed as adopted, so no fixed date for it belongs in a project plan or in a sales deck. A fair question to a vendor is how its data model would carry a footprint figure once the rules settle. A promised compliance date is not a fair answer.
Can our existing PLM system do this instead?
Possibly. Several entries in this category are product lifecycle and product data platforms that added a passport module, while others are traceability specialists built around identifiers and supplier data. The test is not which family a vendor comes from. It is whether the system can take in data from parties outside your company and show where every field came from.
