The DEX Authority

Vendor-neutral · Practitioner-led

Order fromthe chaos.

Most DEX programs stall as a pile of well-intentioned tools. We turn them into a measurable operating discipline, built on the DEX-COS standard.

Your North Star to Operationalizing a DEX Practice

The DEX Authority LLC

Vendor-neutral

No product agenda. Guidance that fits whatever stack you already run or prior to making a decision.

Practitioner-led

Built with decades of combined experience running real enterprise DEXOps programs, not analyst theory or vendor marketing.

Built to operate

Roles you can assign, rhythms you can run, value you can prove to leadership.

DEXOps stalls when it'streated as a tool,not a discipline.

Dashboards multiply. Alerts pile up. Nothing actually changes for the employee. The DEX Authority created the DEX Common Operating System (DEX-COS) to fix the operating model underneath, so the data finally produces results.

The DEX-COS Framework

An operating standard: three layers, two overlays, and five maturity levels.

01

People

Who owns the program, and how it stays alive past launch.

02

Process

The operating rhythm that turns signals into fixes.

03

Technology

Vendor-neutral tooling for visibility and action.
