What are open standards?
“Open standards” are standards that are made available to the general public and are developed (or approved) and maintained through a collaborative and consensus-driven process.
“Open standards” facilitate interoperability and data exchange between different products or services and are intended for widespread use and acceptance.
Improved efficiency and effectiveness:
Management standards help organizations to streamline their processes and work more efficiently.
This leads to increased productivity and effectiveness in achieving objectives.
