DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION

Definition of the problem of digital transformation in Colombian companies.

The optimal use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) by organizations, in their different processes, in their products and services, and in the business model, for the achievement of their corporate purpose.

¿The entity explains that?

As Colombian companies continue to advance, highlighting the Global Digital Transformation Maturity Index had a growth of 9.1 percent in recent years, from 57.64 percent in 2016 to 62.88 percent in 2018.

Causes of the problem of digital transformation in Colombian companies.

The more than 20 million Colombians who do not access the Internet today cannot wait. It is not acceptable that 40% of Colombians continue to live in the last century. Every day that passes in a school without internet, it is a day that we are leaving behind girls and boys who see the differences in opportunities that separate them from those who do have access to ICTs grow.

¿Where?

The Colombian economy cannot continue to wait for the necessary transformation of its productive fabric through the intensive transformation of ICT, a necessary condition to grow again.

Consequences of the problem of digital transformation in Colombian companies.

1. Insufficient budget and resources

2. Lack of executive support

3. Inadequate experience and skills

4. Technologies that cannot work at business speed

5. Data privacy and security concerns

Point number four is interesting because digital transformation depends on technology, and when it has to fight against modified legacy systems and traditional infrastructure, it is difficult to execute a digital transformation initiative.
