Digital transformation
A researched business case for digital transformation, from a clear problem statement through applications, people, data and cost.
The challenge
Digital transformation takes many forms, from matching a competitor’s eCommerce capabilities to automating invoice approvals. It succeeds when the business objective is clear and the organization is aligned behind it. When teams skip the research and planning, they end up buying technology that doesn’t solve the real problem.
How we approach it
We build the evaluation and business case in six steps:
- Problem statement: use voice-of-the-customer, competitor and stakeholder research to define the objective.
- Application profile: place new capabilities in your application landscape, find gaps and identify what to retire.
- Organization and process impact: define how work changes and where skills gaps exist.
- Build versus buy: review critical requirements, alternatives and gaps.
- Data and integration: set out master data ownership, data flows, user maintenance, cybersecurity and compliance.
- Business case: estimate benefits, implementation cost and ongoing cost.
From there we help negotiate with vendors and mobilize the team for implementation.
Questions we help you answer
- What problem are we actually solving, and for whom?
- Which capabilities are table stakes, and where should we aim for best in class?
- Should we build, buy or combine the two?
- What will it cost to implement and to run?
