The Open Group unveils Forum for digital transformation standards
The Open Group has launched the Open Digital Transformation Forum to drive the development of open, vendor-neutral standards in enterprise digital transformation. The new Forum, referred to as ODXF, is intended to help organisations around the world accelerate their digital transformation efforts by bringing together experts from various industries to share knowledge, develop consistent frameworks and reference architectures, and promote more measurable transformation outcomes. ODXF is focused on ensuring that the growing global investment in digital transformation yields effective returns by fostering collaboration and transparency across sectors. The Forum intends to address the technical and cultural challenges businesses face when adopting new digital processes and technologies. "The vast majority of enterprises today are engaged in Digital Transformation initiatives, with significant global spend in Digital Transformation", commented Rashed Al-Yami, Governing Board Member of The Open Group and Manager Digital Platforms & Architecture Design Division at Aramco. "By developing open standards through vendor-neutral collaboration, ODXF can influence the Digital Transformation agenda towards more rigorous and successful practices." The Open Group stated that one of the Forum's central aims is to establish clear guidelines for digital transformation efforts. By setting these standards, ODXF hopes to improve consistency and effectiveness in digital transformation initiatives, enabling organisations to benefit from common definitions and shared strategies. Key activities of the Forum include the development of standardised frameworks that can be adopted by companies undertaking digital transformation. Reference architectures will be produced, giving organisations structured, practical models that help guide their efforts and enhance their ability to adapt to changing business environments. The intention is for these resources to make digital transformation processes more agile and responsive to organisational needs. The Forum will also be responsible for building a shared body of knowledge that includes a suite of documents to support the operational use of digital transformation standards. Over time, ODXF aims to deliver a certification programme that allows practitioners to formally demonstrate their understanding and application of recommended approaches within the field. "Digital Transformation is not a new term, but the emergence of a range of disruptive technologies, from AI to quantum computing, has made it more urgent than ever for businesses to find a clear guiding path towards proven approaches to this challenge. Our track record of bringing industry stakeholders together in a neutral, collaborative space means that The Open Group is well placed to add value to one of the world's major areas of investment," said Steve Nunn, President and CEO of The Open Group. ODXF will prioritise the inclusion of documents and practical tools that enable industry professionals to operationalise the Forum's standards across their unique business contexts. Establishing a certification programme is expected to provide an additional layer of credibility for practitioners and help organisations identify staff skilled in best-in-class transformation methods. The Forum's approach centres on inclusivity and collaboration, seeking to ensure the development and implementation of standards is based on input from a diverse range of stakeholders, including system suppliers, vendors, integrators, consultants, and other parties involved in digital transformation projects across the globe. The establishment of ODXF reflects the growing complexity of digital transformation activities, particularly as businesses seek to keep pace with developments in technologies such as artificial intelligence and quantum computing. The Open Group indicated ongoing efforts to adapt to these shifting requirements through open standards and industry-supported knowledge sharing frameworks. Follow us on: Share on:
