Digital Transformation FAQs

Businesses are constantly evolving, but what does it mean for one to transform? Within the evolving technological landscape or the digital age, companies are undergoing digital business transformations to better their efficiency and competitiveness in the marketplace. Digital business transformation refers to the leveraging of modern, cloud-based technologies to transform a company’s work and IT environments for the betterment of that business. And contrary to popular belief, these digital business transformations do not end with the implementation of new digital technology, artificial intelligence, or machine learning. Rather, they provide continued opportunities for businesses to operate better, collaborate more, expand services, and greatly enhance their customer experience methodology.

All members of a business are impacted by a digital transformation including: business leaders, a company’s IT professionals, divisions using function-related software, and end-users. Despite the variety in position and responsibility, they all benefit from the following improvements. Read our blog to discover the business benefits of a digital transformation.

It occurs when an organization overhauls its processes, strategies, competencies and day-to-day business operations by leveraging technology capabilities to achieve desired business results. While the specific outcomes are unique to each business, these results often take the form of: improved operational and IT efficiency, greater employee productivity, reduced time to market, more agility with scalable systems, improved sales and marketing functions, stronger cybersecurity posture, and compliant practices.

With all the business resources involved, the process is an intricate one, requiring careful planning to avoid costly mishaps, resulting in maximizing the process’s ROI.
