#Digital Transformation
While digital transformation becomes inevitable in most industries nowadays, experts maintain that the businesses turn to digitization because they do not have a choice. Some of the top reasons for doing so are to compete with their rivals who have upgraded their systems to digital ones, to earn a greater profit, enhance the efficiency level and improving customer satisfaction.
​
To help move a company from an analogue setup to a digital one, an architect must be familiar with all the latest updates and frameworks and tailor-make them to fit the specific challenges and demands of an organization. In order to accomplish the task, one must be proficient in the following skills:
“By digitizing a traditionally analog business model or process, we're effectively turning it into bits and atoms and enabling an infinite variety of possibilities.” ― Nicholas D. Evans, author of “Mastering Digital Business: How powerful combinations of disruptive technologies are enabling the next wave of digital transformation.”
​
Digital transformation is applying digital technology various facets of a business, hence essentially enhancing how a company operates and deliver value to customers. By digitizing the fundamental business models, the organizations continue to challenge the status quo, experiment, and cater to the cultural change sweeping the inner working of both the big and small enterprises.
