EPR compliance

Your suppliers have the data. Getting it right is the hard part.

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is live in 7 states. We run the outreach, cleanse what comes back, and load it into SpecRight correctly. That is the job.

Is your data ready?

Suppliers have never been required to provide this level of detail before. It is not revenue-generating for them, so it is not a priority, and when they try, they get it wrong. We have seen packaging items entered as weighing millions of pounds. We have seen 100% Post-Consumer Recycled content (PCR) claimed across the board. You file on that data anyway, because the deadline does not move.

Suppliers were never asked for this
It is not their day job, it does not make them money, and nobody trained them. They submit what they think is complete.
Nobody audits the BOM
Bill of Materials (BOM) gaps are the ones that get missed: whole material categories absent, secondary packaging skipped, components lumped together that states count separately.
Every state counts differently
California counts each piece of plastic tape as a separate packaging component. A Fortune 50 retailer has tens of millions of them.

The compliance report looks fine. The fee calculation does not.

To be blunt: the data we inherited was wrong. Across the board. Somebody has to go find out how wrong, and then fix it.

What the first 5 steps are for

Three layers. Most clients buy the middle one first.

Design: decide it once, or decide it every year.

Over-configured rules and mismatched names are governance problems in a technology costume. This is the layer where they stop coming back.

Deliver: the sequence, and where it stops.

We stop at fixed points, put the evidence in front of you, and get a written yes before spending another dollar. The full sequence, laid out step by step, lives on the Services page.

Sustain: nothing here is once and done.

New Stock Keeping Units (SKUs) land, suppliers change materials, and states add requirements. Cleansing, new item creation, and spec digitization continue after the filing, because the data decays the moment you stop.

WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR DATA Scattered, partial, largely wrong Filed, and defensible Access We get into your system and take stock of what is really there Diagnose We tell you what is missing, by category and by count Gather We go get it from your suppliers, or we estimate it defensibly Enrich We pull data out of PDFs and die lines and make it structured Report We load SpecRight and translate it into what each state counts You will not need every stage. We tell you which ones you can skip, and why.

Three capabilities carry the whole model.

Like item analysis
A vendor rarely has 400 distinct items. They have 30 or 40, packaged 400 different ways. Group first, and every step after it shrinks.
File ID digitization
Our digitizer reads the identifiers on every PDF: die line number, spec number, SAP number, plant ID. That is what links a file to the right spec, at volume.
Average BOM estimation
Your sales figures plus the packaging data we already hold, used to populate the items nobody has data for. It fills a supplier outreach gap, or replaces the outreach entirely.

Solid ran. Outlined ran in part. Dimmed was deferred.

They arrived 60% populated and largely inaccurate, with no budget and no calendar for supplier outreach. The gap report put the real number in front of both sides, so the deferral was a decision instead of an accident. They came back later for what they had skipped.

We do the work.

No advisory deck. No recommended next steps. We run the outreach, cleanse what comes back, and load it into SpecRight correctly.
