Open Source software en open standaarden staan al geruime tijd in de belangstelling. Veel publieke informatiesystemen en de gegevens daarin zijn inmiddels uitgevoerd in gesloten software en gesloten standaarden. Dit brengt behalve afhankelijkheid van de leverancier ook andere problemen met zich mee.

De toepassing van open standaarden en Open Source software biedt een uitweg uit deze problematiek. De beschikbaarheid van de broncode zorgt ervoor dat software door meerdere aanbieders naar de wens van de organisatie aan te passen is. Het vasthouden aan open standaarden staat garant voor de koppelbaarheid van systemen en het zonder problemen uitwisselen van gegevens.

Dutch Unlimited richt zich voornamelijk op Open Source oplossingen en het implementeren, integreren, koppelen en migreren van deze oplossingen.
