About the OpenChain Project

OpenChain began when a group of open-source compliance professionals met in a conference lounge and chatted about how so much duplicative, redundant open-source license compliance work was being done inefficiently in the software supply chain simply. They realized that while each company did the same work behind the scenes in a different manner the output for downstream recipients could not realistically be relied on because there was no visibility into the process that generated the output.

The answer the early principles of this discussion arrived at was to standardize open-source compliance, make it transparent and build trust across the ecosystem. The project began as outreach to the community with the idea of a new standard for open-source license compliance with slides titled, "When Conformity is Innovative." A growing community quickly recognized the value of this approach and contributed to the nascent collaboration soon named The OpenChain Project.
