Successfully Implement Digital Transformation for Your Business

With cloud-based technology taking over the field of evolving businesses and markets, most brands are offering digital versions of their services. Although it is the most popular trend, to implement the process of digital transformation, you need to know a few points.

What is digital transformation?

In simple terms, digital transformation infers adopting digital technologies and solutions within your business to keep up with evolving business and market needs. However, the definition might mean building a website to promote their online presence, moving their services and products to cloud-based storage or moving their operations online to minimize physical interactions.

Digital transformation offers customers a digital way of conducting transactions or AI-led solutions replacing manual service. Digital transformation for different businesses needs specific, and hence there are factors to look into before you can implement digital transformation successfully.

Factors to consider

Will the Digital Transformation be Problem Solving?

Benefits are the first thing to consider if you go digital. Will it give your customers a better experience? Will they get the ease of access to your services or website?
Secondly, try going digital in a partial manner. It helps you to test the benefits on a smaller scale. If you are satisfied and understand the operations and their implications, you can go ahead entirely to the digital format.

Deciding on Technologies

Before taking the transformation of your business to the digital platform, it is good to understand which technologies you would need. For example, some benefit more from mobile apps, while some specific businesses like clothes wear or lifestyle products would need full-fledged websites. Therefore consider all pros and cons. You will need to determine which ones would help solve the problems of your business most effectively and efficiently. Thirdly you will also need to decide if you should invest in an off-the-shelf software product or do you need bespoke development?

Different Departments, Different Needs

In large businesses with many departments with specific needs, there may not be one solution that fits all answers. Hence, it is good to consider inputs from employees in relevant departments who might be aware of different problems and opportunities. Talking to the employees from individual departments will give a clearer picture of what is most suitable.

Needs of the Customer

Go for a survey or customer study. Find out what they need. Do they require an all in one app, or would they need better product descriptions? Many customers need easy to understand procedures of payment and delivery. Therefore, to understand your customers' needs, you should design a better product. It will also save you from spending too much on over-engineered and needlessly expensive transformation plans.

Basics of simple Technology

It might be tempting to transit into digital technologies at one go. However, it is better to start on a small scale first. It is wiser to test the field before going for a total digital transformation. It becomes easier to understand complex issues once you know the small ones. The primary benefit of digital transformation is a stable foundation for your digital transformation.

At Ekok, we suggest that businesses go through digital transformation in phases. This plan allows them time to understand which projects need priority and which do not. You should also measure if the new system has brought more success or more costs?
