“…For example, each supply chain actor typically has relationships with several service providers (e.g. banks, distributors, freight forwarders, suppliers) and replacing bilateral relationships with a platform significantly reduces the dependencies in a supply chain (Tröger and Alt 2017). An electronic market typically comprises two groups (Bsides^) that want to interact with each other, while supply chains are one-sided in nature and should not be referred to as platforms in a narrower sense (Tiwana 2014, p. 9).…”

“…Each participating business had their own systems in place that reflected proprietary data and process structures. Information passed along the value chain as a set of one-directional bilateral messages between two actors and the missing chain-wide data availability (or visibility) was recognized as a main reason for the bull-whip effect (Tröger and Alt 2017). Providing platforms that linked multiple suppliers or customers in single-sided multilateral topologies (e.g.…”

Industries and energy markets around the world are facing mounting pressure to decarbonize, prompting them to transform processes and supply chains towards sustainability. However, a lack of credible sustainability data proves to be a considerable barrier for emerging markets for sustainable products: Against the background of complex and globalized supply chains, it is necessary to verify the sustainability claim of products in order to demand price premiums for sustainable products in the long run. To enable this, it is necessary that stakeholders in globalized supply chains are willing to share relevant data along the entire supply chain for increasing traceability and reducing information asymmetries. Using the example of international hydrogen supply chains, we study how data can be shared between different stakeholders using Digital Product Passports while addressing stakeholders’ concerns about data privacy and disclosure. In our work, we develop design principles that provide insight into how a Digital Product Passport should be designed to verify the hydrogen’s carbon footprint in a reliable way and to ensure the willingness of stakeholders to share their data. We follow a multi-step approach with a structured literature review followed by expert interviews and qualitative content analysis for a synthesis of design principles. Our research illustrates that a Digital Product Passport must collect data comprehensively and automatically, process it in a decentralized and tamper-proof manner, protect privacy and sovereignty of stakeholders, and ensure interoperability.
