What is Open Badge Factory?
A cloud-based platform that provides a centralized quality framework for organizations so that they can implement and manage meaningful, consistent and sustainable badge systems.

OBF helps organizations to deal with the following issues
• How to avoid badge inflation and inconsistent badge systems?
• How to avoid the fragmentation of our badges in several platforms?
• How can we manage who in our organization is authorized to create badges and who is only allowed to issue them?
• How can we evaluate the impact of our badges on our earners and on the people who open them? (consumers)
