We hap partnered with SmartEPD to be part of the solution.
🤔 There's a problem in the world of EPDs. We've got a bunch of consultants developing LCA to EPD generator tools but most EPD Program Operators, aka the EPD verifiers and publishers, haven't invested in platforms to receive, verify, or digitally publish these data. EPD verification must not be an afterthought, lest we throw the baby out with the bathwater and undermine the ecosystem we're creating. EPD generator tools should be completely independent, financially and process-wise, from verification and publication activities conducted by EPD Program Operators. That said, Smart EPD is an EPD Program Operator providing verification and publication solutions for the digital EPD landscape - streamlined, high quality, consistent 3rd party EPD verification workflows that support and integrate with LCA to EPD generator tools (and conventional EPD creation/verification processes)!
