Digital transformation

Digital Transformation in Colombian Enterprises

Problem Definition

In Colombia, the business force took a long time to apply Digital Transformation actions and improve the work in the territory to adopt successful processes that would allow it to be internationally competitive in technological matters.

Causes

Consequences

Failure to develop strategies to understand the degree of digitization of the different sectors of the economy.

There was no formulation and articulation of policies and programs aimed at the greater use of Information and Communication Technologies in the productive processes of companies.

There weren't generated any specific programs and strategies to promote the transformation of the business models of micro, small and medium-sized companies based on the strategic use of technology in order to increase their productivity and competitiveness in globalized markets.

Few business leaders who recognize the relevance of making changes and evolving digitally as the key to staying competitive.

It is estimated that in Colombia only 11.7% of companies have a digital strategy, 23.1% are thinking of implementing it, and only 15.3% are measuring the impacts of this trend on their companies.

Problems such as cyberattacks and privacy violations continue to occur with 33% and there is a major flaw in the required knowledge and skills to initiate this change.
