In 2009 OMG, together with the [[Software Engineering Institute]] at [[Carnegie Mellon]] launched the [[CISQ|Consortium of IT Software Quality]] (CISQ).

In 2011 OMG formed the Cloud Standards Customer Council.<ref>[{{cite web| url = http://www.cloud-council.org/| title = Cloud Standards Customer Council]}}</ref> Founding sponsors included [[CA Technologies|CA]], [[IBM]], [[Kaavo]], [[Rackspace]] and [[Software AG]]. The CSCC is an OMG end user advocacy group dedicated to accelerating cloud's successful adoption, and drilling down into the standards, security and interoperability issues surrounding the transition to the cloud.

In September 2011, the OMG Board of Directors voted to adopt the Vector Signal and Image Processing Library (VSIPL) as the latest OMG specification. Work for adopting the specification was led by [[Mentor Graphics]]' Embedded Software Division, RunTime Computing Solutions, The [[Mitre Corporation]] as well as the High Performance Embedded Computing Software Initiative (HPEC-SI). VSIPL is an application programming interface (API). VSIPL and VSIPL++ contain functions used for common signal processing kernel and other computations. These functions include basic arithmetic, trigonometric, transcendental, signal processing, linear algebra, and image processing. The VSIPL family of libraries has been implemented by multiple vendors for a range of processor architectures, including x86, PowerPC, Cell, and NVIDIA GPUs. VSIPL and VSIPL++ are designed to maintain portability across a range of processor architectures. Additionally, VSIPL++ was designed from the start to include support for parallelism.
