Nothing comes by itself, not even the digital workplace
Everyone talks about 'digital transformation', but few take concrete steps. A digitisation process always runs over a long period of time and is in fact never finished. Moreover, you don't transform a company all at once. So be sure to fully tackle your plan - if you already have one - immediately. It is advisable to start with small, easy steps (the quick wins).
Impact / Effort Matrix
To assess whether a certain change is realistic for your company, it is recommended to classify all ideas in an 'Impact & Effort Matrix'. A simple, commonly used method to estimate the priority and/or complexity of new projects. A few examples:
Creation of a Microsoft SharePoint business portal
High
High
Implementation of new CRM and/or ERP environment
High
High
Digitize invoices older than 10 years
High
Low
Few companies have a plan
Unfortunately, there are many companies where it stops after achieving a few quick wins. Digital transformation, however, is never finished. The absence of a plan inevitably leads to lost effort. Once you have inventoried which processes you want to digitise and which solutions are suitable for this, it is best to make an implementation plan. This plan not only includes the technical realisation such as setting up a Cloud environment. It also includes a strategy with regard to training and coaching of your employees, continuous monitoring of usage and quick adjustments where necessary. And all this with clear, transparent communication towards the staff.
An implementation plan must of course be tailor-made. The main reason why a project can fail or be stopped is precisely the lack of a clear step-by-step plan. But sometimes plans are also too ambitious. If its implementation mortgages operational activities, it soon ends up in the bottom drawer. That is why it is important to work in manageable, smaller steps, which do not negatively affect the operational operation. Every project requires the necessary time and energy, but what often remains under the radar is whether the knowledge of users and the final use is sufficient after a few months. Repeated evaluation and continuous training of key-users are vital to keep everyone motivated to make optimal use of the new working method(s).
