The Open Group Event Highlights  – January 31-February 2, 2022

Open Standards & Platforms for Operationalizing COP26

Since August 2020, The Open Group has been working with member organizations to create an open standard for tracking environmental footprint data, unifying data recording, processing, and sharing across industries. We are making progress towards a vision of making it possible to automate the calculation of greenhouse gas data – and, eventually, data such as water usage and landfill – giving companies real-time, reliable insight into their impact. The Open Group is now focused on Open Standards and Platforms for Operationalizing COP26.

Why Attend: Solving the climate crisis demands clearer conversations, stronger leadership buy-in, better training, greater support, and more forceful deadlines. We get there by collaboration through data and open standards.
Digital Practitioners Day

The Open Framework for the Digital Enterprise – Learn about next steps in delivering the playbook for the digital enterprise using consistent and self-supporting guidance by Digital Practitioners:

Common Vocabulary and Roles: A set of reusable, cross-standard definitions for terms and roles, curated by member consensus:
Digital Competencies: DPBoK™ Standard – a coherent, self-consistent framework of digital competencies based on organization scale
Digital Product Control & Accountability: IT4IT™ Standard v3 – Managing the Digital Product to provide a single, simple, unifying element to manage IT and “smart” products and services
Architecting the Digital Enterprise: Open Agile Architecture™ Standard – an outcome-based, product-centered approach to enable enterprises to respond to customer needs in a nimble and Agile manner

In 2022, this content will be made publicly available to standards adopters, along with improvements for both standards adopters, and our valued standards creator community. Stay tuned for a Sneak Peek of this digital platform and initial content.
