iPoint's Solutions for the Automotive Industry
Product Carbon Footprint
Automotive companies feel big pressure to monitor and control life cycle impacts. E.g., politics, economy, and society are very attentive to the issue of Product Carbon Footprints (PCFs). "There are simply too few LCA experts on the market and the dynamics are too high" (CEO of iPoint - Peter Schmidt), which leads to a big challenge! Combining iPoint Compliance with iPoint Product Sustainability via our Smart Connector enables Automotive companies to leverage IMDS data for PCFs. Using Smart Mapping, PCFs can be created automatically.
IMDS
All vehicle suppliers have to transfer their material data into the "International Material Data System" short IMDS. Since the manual processes are costly, time-consuming, and error-prone it can be challenging for automotive manufacturers.
Battery Passport
The Battery Passport is considered as key for safe data sharing, increasing transparency of the market and traceability of large batteries throughout their life cycle. The Digital Product Passport, applied to EV batteries covers the requirements of the Battery Passport and highly supports the industry.
