How can I update my EPD in the Portal?

You can find information on EPD updates in Section 6.5 of the General Programme Instructions.

If you are submitting an updated EPD document, please feel free to follow the below procedure:

1. Make sure that a revision date is added to the cover page as well as a description of the differences versus pervious versions added somewhere in the document. More information on these aspects can be found in the attached file.
2. In the portal when viewing the EPD, select the “start updating EPD” option. 
3. Remove the old document and upload the new one. Make any other necessary changes to the EPD. If this is an EPD for construction products you should also double check the machine readable data at the bottom of step 2. When you are ready to proceed, there are two options: 

Click on start verification. This will allow your verifier to approve the EPD update as well as upload an updated verification report. When the EPD has been approved by the verifier you will receive a notice by e-mail that the EPD is ready for final registration. You will need to agree to the service agreement in step 4 before you can click on Register EPD. After this it will take 1-3 days for your update to be processed by the secretariat. 

For purely editorial changes: Add a description of the changes in the box that will appear in the portal, then click on Register Editorial Update. The update will be sent straight to the secretariat for publishing.
