For companies, rapid implementation of various new digital processes is of great importance. How can enterprises realize this in the best possible way? Different digitization dimensions have to be considered in order to specify and visualize the necessary change. The basis for this is a solid framework. What is this all about?
First of all, it is very important to know and understand the status quo in these 3 key areas through a comprehensive analysis:
- Business-Transformation
- IT-Transformation
- Skill & Culture Transformation
For this Analysis we Recommend Two Tools
A digital backbone consists of individual building blocks, enabling an enterprise to react to the rapid changes and new requirements of a digital world. Each one of these blocks encapsulates an important element of the corporate’s business. The digital backbone is a very important tool for adapting to shorter product and innovation cycles, changing customer needs, global competition and evolving markets.
Digitalisation predominantly entails (a) transforming an enterprise’s portfolio of products and services and (b) acquiring capabilities the organization requires to achieve the desired target state. Here, the Digital Matrix is a central steering tool which enables the successive development of corporate capabilities, leading to a targeted and well-structured transformation process. Different digitalisation dimensions have to be considered in order to specify and visualize the necessary change.
What Steps do we Suggest:
- Determine a framework for the analysis
- Creation of an inventory list of IT assets (via Digital Backbone)
- Analysis of skills & culture
- Definition of entity modules via master data management
- Identification and specification of all business capabilities in the company and structuring with the help of a business capability map.
- Determine critical success factors and digitalisation dimensions and maturity levels.
