summary
Concrete playbook for creating and running an OSPO with budgets, staffing and metrics rather than slogans: templates and an 80-slide deck cover policy, compliance workflows, contribution approval paths and mentoring; case data shows an OSPO growing 12→100+ staff then shrinking, products containing >1000 OSS components, and a costly internal fork of 200,000-line code that required two engineers full time; tooling advice includes SCA scans, LFX mentorship, the TODO Group and pragmatic approval lanes to speed safe contributions.
