D9.5 Standardization and interoperability report

The deliverable report D9.5 “Standardization and interoperability report” reflects the consistency of developments and adoptions of the project towards existing remanufacturing standards and related terminologies. Therefore, KTH Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) monitored the evolution of BS 8887-220:2010 and reported changes in the standard, and Bosch interacted with the Automotive Parts Remanufacturer Association (APRA) to review its remanufacturing terminology for automotive parts. The report also includes the contribution made by the ReCiPSS project in the development of the Circular Economy standard through the involvement in the ISO Technical Committee, ISO/ TC 323 by KTH. Furthermore, as a member of Home Appliance Europe (APPLiA), Gorenje has been involved in defining the future position and direction of the white goods industry regarding the circular economy. Last, the Circular Economy Solutions GmbH (C-ECO) has examined the potential to integrate two data exchange formats, PIES, and TecDoc, into the automotive demonstrator.
