Digital Transformation – while once an aspirational IT goal, COVID 19 created an environment in many companies where Digital Transformation is survival itself
ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Digital Transformation Part One was recorded in June 2020.  What we were seeing was companies responding to the Covid 19 Lockdown – First, dealing with the disruption of a distributed workforce upon traditional business systems highlighted weaknesses in traditional systems previously considered ‘good enough’.  Secondly, market disruptions meant doing business with customers required a new approach – if companies were to remain viable in a post Covid world.

While companies did not have the appetite for a new, huge IT budgets in response to Covid, it was apparent that for many companies, shifting whatever available resources was key to remaining viable – regardless of the form or size the company might emerge from the pandemic lockdown.
