BUSINESS DIGITAL MATURITY ASSESSMENT WHY IS THAT IMPORTANT

Why should you evaluate your business’s digital maturity?

We are constantly hearing about innovative technologies and the value they bring. However, managers find it difficult to understand how to apply these latest trends and if they can answer their needs.  

In fact, navigating different technology options and understanding how each option fits in a specific business plan can be an incredibly challenging task for organizations. That is because to make a digital transformation project successful it is important to consider distinct aspects besides the technology itself.  

Due to the lack of knowledge and experience, businesses end up not reaching their full potential. This inability to take full advantage of the technologies available indicates that these businesses have low levels of digital maturity. Unfortunately, in our very digital world, businesses that lack digital maturity will struggle to stay competitive in any industry.  

Cloud technology, as an example, represents the new global standard for flexibility, security, and growth. According to IDC, 90% of enterprises will embrace integrated, hybrid, and public cloud services, tools, and strategies to support new applications and use cases by 2024. Therefore, businesses that choose not to adopt this kind of services and technologies at this point will find it more expensive and challenging to start their transformation journey in the future when it becomes inevitable. 

Even in the scenario where business may have already deployed Cloud infrastructure or configured a DevOps pipeline, chances are that these initiatives are not bringing the efficiency and the savings expected. In fact, a poor Cloud architecture design can lead to endless code application refactoring to accommodate unexpected behaviors or lack of performance. 

Without the right solution in place, it is harder to onboard unfamiliar staff members, integrate business-critical data, and update your software applications to match performance standards. For this reason and to avoid even greater problems in the future, it is important that businesses implement a digitalization plan properly prepared to meet their specific needs.
