### Reasons and Value of Investing in a Resilient OSPO

In a world governed by software, open source objectives offer solutions to the mission-critical problems organizations wish to address, whether social-economic (governments, NGOs) or technological (companies). Integrating open source into an organization's infrastructure and operations encompasses various objectives, such as risk management, innovation, and the sustainability of the open source communities they rely on. To achieve effective integration, organizations need the right staff to operate and the necessary talent to manage such operations. This is where the mission of an OSPO (Open Source Program Office) comes into play. Go to “tips on how to get started with an OSPO” sub-section to see some practical advice on when starting to staff an OSPO.

On the other hand, stopping the work of an OSPO could have significant negative impacts on those organizations that use open source (directly or indirectly) at any level, including loss of open source expertise, increased security and legal risks, reduced community engagement, and damage to reputation.
