What is Digital Transformation?

Adopting digital transformation is the new normal for businesses seeking to adapt to the ever changing economic landscape and uncertainty that follows it. But what is digital transformation and how does it empower businesses to excel in 2022? 

Digital transformation is the fusion of technology and business planning, with a focus on using fully integrated software to improve every aspect of day-to-day operations. Process improvement from intelligent ERP (enterprise resource planning) software leads to innovation, increased productivity, and a more agile, adaptable business. In essence, digital transformation is future proofing your business from obsolescence. 

The benefits of digital transformation can be realized with a modern ERP system. Having a system in place is the foundation for adopting transformative technology and fostering connectivity within your organization. Some of the key benefits include:

• Real-time decision making: modern ERP software with advanced analytics and data management gives businesses predictive tools to make split-second decisions

• Improved customer experience: meet customer needs with personalized, custom reports using real-time data. Understand individual customer buying habits to deliver a tailored experience.
  
• Connect and streamline all departments: the ability to house all core business processes and data in a single software is essential for automating workflows and improving adaptability 

If you’re wondering whether or not your business is ready for digital transformation, it’s important to do a self evaluation of the effectiveness and efficiency of your current business software. If your company is running a system that is outdated, then it’s time to consider a new ERP software. Here are some questions to think of when doing a ‘health check’ of your current system:

• Does your team manually enter data and perform redundant processes? 

• Are processes slowed or stalled because of your current software? 

• Is there a lack of communication and cohesion between departments?

• Is your current system unable to support new technologies? 

Digital transformation empowers businesses to adapt and thrive in a world that relies heavily on technology and connectivity. Giving your business a modern ERP system as its digital foundation is the first step in transforming day-to-day operations and drastically improving efficiency.
