Digital Transformation in 2024

Are you feeling the urge to kickstart some changes and bring your business up to speed technologically as we move into 2024? If so, the team here at Minerva are ready to help!

The term ‘digital transformation’ is somewhat general and can mean something quite different for each individual business. Broadly speaking, however, the concept of digital transformation means integrating digital technology into all areas of a business to bring about fundamental changes in how they operate, and how they deliver value to customers. It is also a cultural change that requires organisations to move away from the long-standing business processes they were originally built upon in favour of trying new practices and systems, which can feel a little daunting.

Before making any decisions about the move to digital transformation, it is a good idea to ask ‘why’ your business needs to do it. Is it to increase productivity or profitability? Or to improve the customer’s experience? If your aims are more aspirational, your goal might simply be to become the best company to do business with because you have embraced and are utilising some of the highly efficient digital technologies that were previously not available to you. This can place you way ahead of your competitors who have not managed to stay ahead of the game.

Understanding exactly what digital means to your company– whether you are a retail institution, a manufacturer, or a provider of professional services– is essential. One person may think of the meaning of ‘digital’ as going paperless, whereas another may think of it in terms of data analytics and artificial intelligence. Or it could just simply mean installing sales or accounting software, improving data security, moving to the Cloud, or developing bespoke applications for your business.
