About the SAP Responsible Design and Production

SAP RDP is a cloud-based application designed to help businesses meet global packaging regulations and advance circular economy practices by managing Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) fees, plastic taxes, and sustainability reporting obligations comprehensively in one platform. It integrates packaging composition data with real sales and manufacturing data, providing accurate, auditable compliance reports crucial for regulations like the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR). The platform offers end-to-end traceability of packaging materials and sustainability data while combining real-time regulatory intelligence and supplier inputs. SAP RDP enables smarter design decisions to reduce fees and optimize material choices, thus driving waste elimination and circular product portfolio development. It seamlessly connects with SAP S/4HANA, SAP Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), and other SAP sustainability solutions, offering strategic insights and workflow automation for sustainable packaging and product design.
