Why CDX for Heavy Equipment?

Compliance in the heavy equipment industry is complex - and constantly evolving. From SCIP and REACH to TSCA, RoHS, and the new HEDSL requirements, manufacturers face growing pressure to stay transparent and aligned with international regulations. CDX offers a centralized, license-inclusive solution that eliminates hidden costs and simplifies compliance across your entire supply chain.

Developed in partnership with AEM and shaped through leadership in the HEDSL committee, CDX is purpose-built for the heavy equipment sector. Full Material Declarations (FMD), faster SCIP submissions, and streamlined Responsible Minerals workflows empower manufacturers to meet demands for sustainability, safety, and regulatory accountability.

With seamless data exchange capabilities - including IMDS imports and IPC-compliant interfaces - CDX bridges data silos and accelerates collaboration. Whether managing bulk submissions or tracing materials like 3TG, cobalt, and mica, CDX helps you turn compliance into competitive advantage.

Key Features of CDX for Heavy Equipment Manufacturers

HEDSL - Ready

DXC has been involved with Heavy Equipment Declarable Substances List (HEDSL) since its inception, partnering with AEM and contributing as committee co-chair. This ensures CDX meets the industry´s compliance needs, simplifies reporting and reduce regulatory burdens.

Full Material Declaration

CDX supports Full Material Declaration capabilities, enabling manufacturers to maintain detailed transparency over the materials in their products.

Faster SCIP Submissions

CDX helps identify REACH Candidate List substances in complex products and simplifies bulk uploads, eliminating manual effort and boosting efficiency.

IMDS to CDX Data Transfer

If you´ve already collected data in IMDS, there´s no need to gather it again. Import existing IMDS data into CDX to save time, reduce errors, and use it as a baseline for future data collection processes.

IPC Interfaces

CDX´s IPC interfaces enable seamless import, export, and aggregation of data in IPC-compliant formats (e.g., IPC-1752A, IPC-1754), streamline communication across supply chains.

Streamlined Responsible Sourcing

CDX simplifies due diligence by helping you identify high-risk smelters and collect sourcing data for 3TG, Cobalt, and Mica. This enables informed supplier conversations and supports smarter, more ethical sourcing decisions.
