Common Concerns
What’s been holding manufacturers back – and why it no longer needs to.
We know the objections. That’s why we shaped our platform and our approach around them.
“This is way too complex – AAS, IDTA, IEC 61406…”
Codewerk handles the technical complexity end-to-end. You describe your product – we build the standard-compliant AAS. No AAS expertise required.
“We have no time for another IT project.”
Our three-phase model starts small: Phase 1 requires only a few hours of your resources and already delivers usable results.
“The budget feels open-ended – this will get expensive.”
Every phase has a fixed scope and budget. No surprises. You decide at the end of each phase whether to continue.
“Our data lives in different systems.”
unibeam connectors link ERP, MES, databases and CSV exports. No IT overhaul needed – we pick the data up where it sits.
“We have no digital team for this.”
We deliver turnkey. Your team needs no development know-how – just product knowledge and contacts for technical questions.
“The DPP isn’t mandatory yet – why now?”
From 2027, the first mandatory DPPs arrive. Early movers build experience and can stand out as suppliers before the pressure hits.
Our Project Model
Your DPP in three clearly defined phases
Each phase has a concrete deliverable. You stay in control – and decide at the end of each phase how to proceed.
Concept Phase
We understand your product, your data and your goals – and develop a clear technical blueprint.
- Requirements clarification with your specialist departments
- On-site workshop with all stakeholders
- AAS modelling
- Creation of the software architecture
Technical concept & roadmap
Realisation Phase
The concept becomes a running system – always in close collaboration with you.
- Implementation of the concept
- System integrations
- Customer portal & user management
- Always in close collaboration with the customer
Running DPP system
Test & Go-Live
Everything gets tested, existing devices are integrated – then your DPP goes live.
- Functional testing of the system
- Performance testing (volume, speed)
- Integration of existing devices
- Go-Live of the platform and handover

EU Regulation
From 2027 the DPP becomes mandatory. Now is the right moment.
The EU Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) gradually mandates the Digital Product Pass for more and more product groups. Early movers are prepared.
The Offer: Concept, free implementation, hosting.
The DPP becomes mandatory from February 2027. Start now – the complete implementation during the promotional period is free.
Requirements clarification, on-site workshop, AAS modelling and the technical blueprint for your project.
Fixed scope, fixed price – you decide afterwards whether to continue.
Implementation, system integration and go-live – free of charge for orders received by December 31, 2026 (completion may follow later).
Requires connecting up to 2 systems via file-based (CSV, XML) or SQL interfaces.
Secure operation of your DPP platform incl. maintenance and updates. Minimum term of 4 years.
After the first 4 years, a price adjustment of up to 5 % per year is reserved.
One conversation is enough – together we’ll clarify what product data you have and what Phase 1 means for you concretely. No long pitch, no commitment.
Free implementation applies to connecting up to 2 systems via file-based interfaces (CSV, XML) or standard database interfaces (SQL). Additional systems or interface types are calculated separately.
