Digital transformation is what we do. But what is digital transformation? According to Green Rock Consulting, digital transformation is about more than just having new technology. It is about a new way of creating value using technology. Technology remains a tool, but whether and how much value is created with it depends on the optimal use of those digital tools.

To successfully transform digitally with more value creation, two elements are crucial: a digital business model and digital skills. A new digital business model is necessary that is based on the maximal use of digital technology. In addition, both the end users and the management organization must have the digital skills to use this digital technology and thus realize the intended value creation.

But why is digital transformation necessary?

Digital transformation is becoming increasingly important in a competitive market where digitalisation is constantly increasing.

Market developments are happening at breakneck speed and digital transformation can make established business models obsolete in a short period of time. It is therefore important to continue to innovate, even though it is tempting to sit back when all digitalisation seems to be in order. Change is inevitable and will occur sooner or later. In addition, all market players have a certain degree of influence. It is better to remain at the helm yourself and respond to digital transformation instead of waiting until your business model is outdated. If there is a clear plan underlying this, your organisation will be prepared for the future and it will ensure that your organisation positions itself correctly.

Five tips for making digital transformation more successful

1. Structure the search: vision is essential
2. Do existing things better, but also do new things
3. Focus on digital competencies and digital leadership
4. Bring innovative power in-house
5. Change is timeless: keep innovating

Digital transformation affects the entire organization.

It has an impact on all (business) processes, including the corporate culture. This places demands on your external and internal services, for example that everything within the organization goes right the first time, is on time and is delivered at low costs. Green Rock Consulting guides organizations in large-scale digital transformations and change processes to improve their services, for example by guiding European tenders, process optimizations (Lean and Six Sigma), digitization of data flows with (ERP) (Cloud) systems and the use of additional tools, including robotization (RPA) and AI applications. Green Rock Consulting also takes into account the necessary cultural change and the absorption capacity of the organization.

In order to do justice to all facets of Digital Transformation, Green Rock Consulting uses its own integral approach (5D method) that has proven itself in practice.
