Digital transformation is a phrase you may have heard over the years. But what does it mean, how do you know if you need a transformation, and how can Office 365 help your business achieve it?
Understanding Digital
At its most basic ‘digital’ refers to the ways people connect with machines, and the technology that makes it possible. Technology advances at a rapid pace, and it’s easy to get left behind.
Consider Windows updates. Each one is because Microsoft identifies something it could do better, then adapts its programming. The commonest examples are security patches to fight new cyberthreats.
Understanding Transformation
Everyone knows the basic definition of a transformation. Transformation happens when something becomes something else.
In business, transformation refers to big changes in the ways the business operates. From business model, to products, processes and services, all are affected through transformation.
Transformation doesn’t happen through mergers, finding new markets or changing a customer base. Those are normal business activities. Companies that alter their working practises to reflect current demands don’t need to transform. They are already keeping pace with a changing market place.
Those that don’t identify changes and adapt reach a tipping point. At the tipping point it’s too late to transform because all the customers have gone elsewhere. HMV is an example of a large company this happened to.
A report by Mckinsey argues that companies who fail to integrate digital strategies will be the ones who lose.
