Summary

Recommendation ITU-T L.1023 outlines an assessment method for circularity scoring of information and communication technology (ICT) goods.

The assessment method consists of three steps:

1)��������� Setting the relevance and applicability (R) of each criterion for circular product design (CCPD) for the ICT goods at hand,

2)��������� Assess the margin of improvement (MI) of each criterion,

3)��������� Calculate the circularity score (score) from 0 to 100% for the ICT good at hand for all three circular design guideline groups (CDGGs). This includes:

����� Using a predefined value matrix to identify the % score from 0 to 100 for each combination of R�MI.

����� Average the included criteria for the ICT good at hand separately for all three groups: product durability, ability to recycle, repair, reuse, and upgrade from equipment and manufacturer level.
