DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION – GET YOUR COMPANY STREAMLINED

Do you want to gain more visibility into your operations and increase the efficiency of cross-functional processes? Say, what? Yes, we’re getting digitally deep here. Your documents are digitized (phase 1), organized (phase 2), automated (phase 3) and now you’re about to get streamlined – the fourth phase of the digital transformation model…streamlining processes.Once you have reached this phase, you’ve automated your processes. Now you’re able to keep track of who’s doing what, what’s happening when, and where events are occurring. But are you able to understand the performance? Do you know if one staff member has too much to do, and one too little? Do you know if there are bottlenecks, and if so, what they are and how to remove them? If you looked at your process, could you quickly identify areas for improvement?

This phase – streamlining processes – is all about refining automated processes, using data to inform business decisions, and ensuring efficiency in your business processes. Armed with this information, you can make informed decisions to drive business innovation throughout your business processes and better focus on what your organization does best.

Has your company completed the first (digitize), second (organize), third (automate), and fourth (streamline) phases of the digital transformation model? If yes, you’re an amazing rockstar! Stay tuned for the final phase, transforming your processes. If you haven’t completed phase one through four contact me and I can show you how to get there.
