The IEEE 1588 Conformity Alliance is an IEEE Conformity Assessment Program (ICAP) with the mission to promote the IEEE 1588 "Standard for a Precision Clock Synchronization Protocol for Networked Measurement and Control Systems" as the de-facto standard for synchronization delivery over packet networks.

To accomplish this goal, the Alliance is developing the industry’s first IEEE 1588 certification program to recognize the ability of specific implementations to meet the conformance requirements with the IEEE 1588 standard.

Additionally, the 1588 Conformity Alliance will be the definitive industry resource for information on synchronization delivery. The Alliance will develop a library of both technical and business-oriented material to create awareness within the industry of the benefits and advantages of adopting the 1588 standard. The Alliance will build industry awareness by presenting its library of expert knowledge on synchronization delivery through a variety of outlets including via our web and through participation in various industry conferences and events throughout the year.
