Is your business evolving as technology advances? In 2020, tech enhancements like the Internet of Things (IoT), data visualization, data analytics, automated workflow processes and blockchain are necessary to ensure your organization continues to grow. These cloud-based, digital solutions require proper implementation, and such a task can seem daunting, but we're here to help. It's time to adopt a digital transformation, by understanding how and why the switch is viable for your organization. To evolve with technology and digitize your processes, the first step is to do your research, learn and understand the latest technology that is driving change and disruption.
Digital transformation involves a restructuring of your business model by integrating digital technology into every sector of your organization; fundamentally changing how you deliver value to customers. As industries progress, it is evident that business models are becoming increasingly aligned with technology and disrupted by the advent of automation, AI, machine learning, etc. This evolution is redefining over thousands of jobs that were once manually completed, and causing a major shift in the way businesses operate.
Big name companies like Tesla, Walmart, Netflix, Apple, Spotify, Facebook, Twitter, and Amazon have already begun making the switch to digital through chatbots, blockchain and data analytics. Even manufacturing, logistics, healthcare and financial companies are enabling digital technologies to remain competitive. In fact, the growth of digital transformation is exponential and according to the IDC (International Data Corporation), "Worldwide spending on the technologies and services that enable the digital transformation (DX) of business practices, products, and organizations is forecast to reach $1.97 trillion in 2022."
The best way to stay afloat in the competitive business world is to ensure your customers are pleased by enhancing the digital customer and end-user experience. People rely on technology, and if your organization is not providing consumers with an easy-to-use digital experience, chances are they aren't going to opt to use you again.
To begin your digital transformation, there are steps that can be followed:
