Digitalisation in medium-sized businesses
Fad?
...or how can it make you more efficient?
According to a recent study ("Digitalization in SMEs", Deloitte, 2022), around
60% of companies rate their level of digitization as "very low". Around 75% of medium-sized companies see themselves as "lowly" digitized.
This is alarming, because medium-sized companies have good prerequisites such as speed, high flexibility, easier change management and, in principle, faster decision-making...
"Previous empirical studies have repeatedly postulated a connection between digitization and company success. Experts assume an effect of up to 20 percent in terms of productivity and profitability."
(Quote from "Digitalization in SMEs", p. 29, Deloitte, 2022)
Start your digitalization journey now and start your first small project!
As your sparring partner, I can show you possible approaches in your company and how you can become more efficient.
A quick introduction to digitalization is possible, especially in the area of administrative processes.
No big project plans or PowerPoint presentations - just do it!
Does any of the following apply to your company?
Lots of regularly repetitive tasks?
If employees have to carry out the same or similar tasks with many customers, suppliers or clients on a regular basis, e.g. monthly or even at shorter intervals, they are unavailable for more value-added tasks during this time.
Let us show you what digitalization options are available in these cases. There are surprisingly simple solutions - and many successful examples.
Are various computer systems or programs active?
Do you have SAP? Do you use other software systems in your company to be able to complete specific tasks flexibly?
Is there perhaps no integrated software solution that processes all internal and external data in a barrier-free manner?
Do you need to process documents?
Do you require manual intervention for processing or control?
I can show you solutions on how to automate a process, even if you have a heterogeneous system landscape.
IT department at full capacity and a shortage of skilled workers?
Many people believe that digitization projects can only be carried out by the IT department. And if the IT department is fully occupied, including with support tasks, then digitization is no longer an issue?
This does not necessarily have to be the case. Use the process know-how of your specialists and let them carry out the value-adding activities and reduce the workload through automated processes. Also spare your IT department!
