STATUS
The current state of the needs analysis
What is running, what is being prepared, and when each regime’s rules were last checked against the source. This page is the register that used to sit in the footer.
State as of: 2026-09-02
The website and the needs analysis are active.
The needs analysis is live at quickcheck.clearosystems.com. Measured figures (availability and time to complete) are published only once its monitoring supplies them: until then they read “coming soon”. Everything else on this page is maintained by hand, with the date on which that last happened.

CHANGES
What changed recently
The comparison pages were taken offline; their addresses now redirect to the How it works page.
The needs analysis went live at quickcheck.clearosystems.com. The question flow, the profile preview and the report delivery read operational; the measured figures follow once monitoring is wired up.
Packaging correction: 12 August 2026 is the PPWR’s application date (conformity and role determination), not the day the Dutch 50,000 kg threshold falls away. That threshold applies for the whole of 2026 and is expected to lapse with the national producer register in 2027/2028. The earlier wording appeared on several pages and has been corrected everywhere.
Status register cleaned up: only what actually runs reads operational. The website is active; the question flow, the profile preview and the report delivery read “in preparation” until the needs analysis is in production.
Report delivery: the full report goes out by e-mail or as an export once you leave your contact details. The preview of your profile stays on screen straight away.
Battery rules re-checked against Stichting OPEN; built-in cells now explicit in the decision logic.
Six comparisons with other EPR service providers went live, with a source and retrieval date per fact.
