ABOUT US

Once you join forces with our members, you’ll move beyond just discussing digital solu­tions and dive into imple­menting them.

Our
Mission

To empower our members to thrive in the digital age by sharing knowl­edge, bridging the gap between industry stan­dards and prac­tical imple­men­ta­tion, promoting industry align­ment, and future-proofing inno­v­a­tive tech­nolo­gies.

Our
Vision

To be the hands-on asso­ci­a­tion for making digi­tal­iza­tion a reality by uniting tech­nology providers and users across the manu­fac­turing value chain.

What
we do

At the heart of the Open Industry 4.0 (OI4) Alliance lies a commit­ment to open, incre­mental inno­va­tion. By focusing on achiev­able, scal­able solu­tions, we help compa­nies and regu­la­tors shape the future without losing sight of today’s real­i­ties.

Here’s what we do, in a nutshell:

  • Ensuring seam­less compat­i­bility with legacy systems while supporting advanced tech­nology adop­tion.
  • Co-devel­oping scal­able, inter­op­er­able solu­tions based on our community’s exper­tise to meet industry-specific chal­lenges.
  • Improving indus­trial processes with secure and smooth inte­gra­tions across indus­tries and borders.

Why It
matters

In our rapidly digi­tal­izing world, indus­trial compa­nies struggle to find new growth oppor­tu­ni­ties and skilled labor. Leaders are feeling an urgent need to trans­form their orga­ni­za­tions to stay compet­i­tive, resilient, and sustain­able.

Through collab­o­ra­tive projects, the OI4 Alliance creates the bridge needed to make sure they meet legacy chal­lenges while future-proofing oper­a­tions.

What’s in
for you

Collab­o­rating within the OI4 Alliance accel­er­ates the devel­op­ment of prac­tical, connected solu­tions, providing a compet­i­tive edge on the one hand and a clear path to scal­able digital tech­nology adop­tion on the other.

Our asso­ci­a­tion offers a collab­o­ra­tive envi­ron­ment to opti­mize processes and main­tain future readi­ness through inter­op­er­able systems, thus increasing produc­tivity and tapping new sources of respon­sible growth.

By cham­pi­oning open stan­dards, we help shape indus­trial norms, promote sustain­able devel­op­ment, and align indus­tries to miti­gate economic and envi­ron­mental risks.
