Digital Assessment, Strategy, and Transformation
Munich– Should companies appoint a Chief Digital Officer to lead their digital transformation, or should they focus on digital subsidiaries, the establishment of IT labs, or partnerships with relevant startups and companies? Across all sectors and industries, companies are increasingly recognizing that digital transformation also requires organizational changes.
Shorter product lifecycles, disruptive technologies, digital business models, and rapidly changing customer demands are fundamentally transforming corporate value chains. In this context, organizational structure is a key tool—and a prerequisite—for effectively capitalizing on the opportunities offered by connectivity, automation, and increased flexibility.
On the other hand, however, there are also new challenges to overcome: open questions regarding data management must be addressed, and employees must be equipped with the skills needed for the future. In addition to providing ongoing training for employees, it is also essential to increase acceptance of new approaches and methods. Fromdigitalization toIndustry 4.0tobig data—these various topics are associated with and interpreted by both executives and employees in many different ways. The result is a broad spectrum of diverse approaches and strategies.
What do we mean by that?
We view digitalization as the creation of value from data, with the goal of optimizing existing products and processes and generating new business models. Efficient data management—particularly with regard to data standards and transparency—is essential to this process. Only when these basic requirements are met can companies effectively address the challenges of digital transformation.
