A not-for-profit organisation headquartered in London, OMTP was a unique forum where vendors and middleware vendors could talk directly and collectively to operators. By doing so, all parties developed a clearer understanding of their part in the final customer experience, and collaboratively defined handset recommendations that have driven the industry forward.
OMTP is the organisation behind BONDI. The OMTP membership worked together from mid 2008 to create not only a set of specifications, but a reference implementation (as an open source inititive)
OMTP is also the organisation behind the Common Charging specification which has been used as the basis for the GSMA Universal Charging Solution (now supported by CTIA and ITU). This specification and the support of the OMTP membership and others across the industry will result in the overall reduction in the number of chargers produced, but also their environmental impact.
BONDI and the Common Charging document are good examples of the type of work that OMTP has done which make a real impact on the mobile devices and the services which customers will buy in the future. Our work has played a major role in reducing fragmentation in our industry.
