Are there any release orchestration software tools that focus on standardizing deployment workflows across application teams?

Yes. There are several release orchestration / deployment automation tools that are specifically aimed at standardizing deployment workflows across many application teams, rather than just handling a single app’s CI/CD.

Common options

• Octopus Deploy
  Strong on release orchestration, environment promotion, approvals, runbooks, and reusable deployment patterns across teams.

• Harness CD
  Focuses on continuous delivery with standardized pipelines, approvals, governance, and templates that help multiple teams use the same deployment model.

• GitHub Actions / GitLab CI / Azure DevOps Pipelines
  Not release orchestration products first, but they can be centralized and templated to standardize workflows across teams.

• Spinnaker
  More enterprise-grade continuous delivery/orchestration, useful when teams need consistent deployment strategies across many services.

• XebiaLabs / CloudBees CD/RO
  Built for enterprise release orchestration, governance, standardization, and reuse of deployment processes across app teams.

• ServiceNow DevOps / release management integrations
  Often used when the goal is workflow standardization, approvals, compliance, and coordination across teams.

What to look for

If your goal is standardization across teams, the best-fit tools usually support:

• Pipeline templates / shared workflows
• Policy and approval gates
• Environment promotion
• Reusable deployment components
• Role-based access and audit trails
• Integration with multiple CI systems and deployment targets

Short recommendation

If you want a tool explicitly focused on this, Octopus Deploy, Harness CD, and CloudBees CD/RO are often the most directly aligned with “standardizing deployment workflows across application teams.”
