WHAT IS DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION

Digital transformation is the process of changing how an enterprise leverages technology, people and processes to improve business performance and embrace new business models. This transformation is cultural in nature and affects all elements of the business including sales, marketing, operations and customer service and is typically accompanied by a move to modern cloud technologies.

WHY IS DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION IMPORTANT

Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, digital transformation largely focused on customer experience. Then, everything changed—and accelerated. Now, digital transformation is the centerpiece of operational efficiency and innovation across the organization.

Across industries, change is happening in shorter waves than ever before, and CEOs feel the pressure but recognize the opportunity for the entire organization. And, according to our most recent survey, accelerated digital transformation, including cloud and data, has become the number-one topic CEOs prioritize for the board since the pandemic hit. Our research "Make the Leap, Take the Lead" shows that leading companies in enterprise technology were growing two times faster than most companies, and by doubling down on their tech investments recently, they are now growing five times faster. Leaders harness key cloud technologies, including AI, to outpace their peers. They adopt innovative technology sooner and reinvest more frequently. And they direct their IT budgets toward innovation. The benefits are more revenue and more growth—and the ability to stay ahead of the curve.

LEVERAGE DYNATRACE TO DIGITALLY TRANSFORM YOUR BUSINESS:

  • Increase agility by accelerating the adoption of modern technologies like containers and serverless
  • Improve productivity with a single platform powered by AI to simplify operations
  • Optimize customer satisfaction with complete insights into the customer experience of your web and mobile applications
  • Increase innovation by automating manual tasks to free time for modernization
  • Accelerate application release cycles with intelligent automation and application security across the development lifecycle
  • Reduce risk and free time for innovation with automated security vulnerability detection and pro-active remediation

CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE ABOVE ALL ELSE

Today, consumers are in control of their interactions with businesses

  • The business side has to really understand customer experience and behavior, their journeys and the business impact.
  • Speed of innovation is key and application platforms need to be hyper-available and hyper-elastic responding seamlessly to different scenarios.

STEPS TO DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION

Driving big change in an organization is too difficult to pull off without a plan. There are five major areas companies must address, often in parallel.

1. Business strategy transformation

Today, all companies are tech companies; all CEOs are tech CEOs. Digital transformation puts technology at the core of business strategy. This approach can reduce operating expenses and inefficiency. It could even change the course of your business. With a unified model across business and technology, it’s easier to achieve future ambitions. The technology path you choose now will determine, more decisively than ever, your company’s success.

2. Business operations realignment

Transforming business processes and adopting new ways of working for agility and experimentation are crucial to success. What do your customers and employees need most, and how can digital processes help? Starting with these questions can create better processes across the board, whether that’s improving customer service through better data and analytics, moving key services to the cloud, or building sustainability across engineering, manufacturing and supply chain functions.

3. Adoption of new practices for agility and experimentation

As customer expectations and the pace of change increase, it’s necessary to introduce new ways of working coupled with modern engineering capabilities. Most companies are making suboptimal decisions about how to direct their tech investments. It all comes down to embracing change and innovation. Successful digital transformation is a radically different approach—one that sees technology as accessible and people as adaptable.

4. A flexible technology core for sustainable change

It’s important not to get locked into just one technology. By staying nimble and flexible, you can catalyze innovation in your company and more easily form ecosystem partnerships that drive speed and scale. A modular approach allows for fast and sustainable change, and staying focused on customer needs is key.

5. People change management

Digital transformation affects all aspects of business. For it to work, the digital foundation, digital operations and a digitally skilled workforce collectively need the backing of leaders and a culture that is aligned on which new technologies to adopt and how best to integrate them into daily life. What should the future of work look like? How should roles and responsibilities evolve? In what ways can technology enable better knowledge sharing and collaboration? How can leaders be trained to communicate better, have greater empathy and earn trust in a remote-work environment? Technology introduces new challenges for workers, but it can also solve many of them. To create sustainable change, companies often need to build new skills as employees work in new ways.

AGILE TRANSFORMATION

Agile transformation is the process of shifting an organization to agile ways of working. It sounds like what it means — agile transformation is about applying agile principles of adaptability and efficiency to teamwork, collaboration, processes, and measurement across the business.

THE 5 MAJOR BENEFITS OF BECOMING AN AGILE ORGANIZATION

1. Better cross-team collaboration

An agile transformation should break down silos and bureaucratic red tape that slow down organizations and cause confusion, double work, and missed deadlines. Agile teams also prioritize face-to-face interaction and continuous interaction between members. There are regular (effective) meetings to help everyone work towards their shared goals.

2. A shared purpose that boosts motivation

Agile organizations share values and understand their North Star metrics. Instead of getting caught up in the minor details, they’re able to focus on the bigger picture. Not only does this make your teams more effective, but a shared purpose is one of the biggest drivers of team motivation.

3. Renewed focus on your users and customers

There’s no doubt now that customer-centric companies are more successful. Agile transformations put the customer back at the core of your strategy through better user research, constant feedback, and an openness to learning.

Agile transformation roadmap: 10 steps to embracing Agile

1. Take stock of where you are now

2. Build a leadership team that can get your required buy-in

3. Create an Agile blueprint for your company

4. Decide how you’ll implement your Agile transformation roadmap

5. Start with an Agile pilot project

6. Scale and improve your Agile processes

7. Update your ‘backbone’ to support the agile transformation

8. Bring in ongoing training

9. Make Agile a part of your company culture

10. Plan for the challenges you’ll face moving forward

4. Higher ROI on all your efforts

Agile organizations get better results with less effort. When your organization is built to learn quickly, adapt, and pivot, you spend less time and resources on wasted efforts. In just one example, Adobe’s Agile transformation led to a 30% drop in voluntary turnover (meaning their best team members were staying) and savings of 80,000 management hours annually.

5. More creativity and innovation

The goal of any Agile process is to help you learn faster and unlock innovation. When you can apply those same principles across your entire company, it’s a game-changer. Agile organizations are constantly on the hunt for the next great idea instead of feeling stuck with doing ‘business as usual’ or ‘what worked in the past’.
