Part-3: UDX: Unified Digital Transformation Framework – Facts and Stats

This article is the third (and last) 3-part series about?Digital Transformation Models and Frameworks. In Part-3, I illuminate the importance and benefits of adopting a Unified Digital Transformation Framework. Also, I elucidated how to choose the proper digital transformation framework. Part-3 also highlights more than 80 facts and statistics about different aspects of Digital Transformation worldwide. Should you need more reading sources, I listed the majority of the references I unfolded in all three articles at the end of this article.

In Part-2, I shed light and examined 20 Digital Transformation Models and Frameworks published by top IT services providers, DX consulting companies, and a few noteworthy digital transformation research, executive education, advisory experts, and organizations. Part-2 also accentuated the consulting services fatigue phenomenon that consulting firms and digital services providers face and contribute to the low percentage of digital transformation success.

Part-1 focused on the importance of Change Management as an essential business sub-domain for any enterprise's Digital Transformation initiative.

The Benefits of a Unified Digital Transformation Framework

Why we need a unified framework for Digital Transformation? A Unified Digital Transformation Framework (UDX Framework) gives decision-makers principal and righthand starting points like any framework or model. Regardless of the industry, the size of the organization, and the current/existing capabilities, the UDX framework should provide structured guidelines, logs of the available capabilities, required capabilities to be acquired, requirements to be implemented, and the sequence in which what needs to be accomplished and should be done.

In a broader spectrum, the UDX framework should challenge the inside-out business capabilities (not only people capabilities), which is becoming necessary to achieve a successful transformation journey.

Nevertheless, UDX framework shouldn't be prescriptive. Instead, the UDX-framework's author(s) should invite the user to hack and mod the framework, to suit the enterprise's circumstances.

The UDX framework shows different levels of people at the organization how to collaborate?to make digital change possible. UDX framework key benefits are:

• A credible starting point,
• It helps imagine the big picture, ideal for executives and implementers,
• Illuminate the weaknesses of the internal overall business capabilities,
• Deep-dive to a set of actions, tasks, and logical sequences,
• Transform the organization's front, mid, and back-of-office,
• Tailor to suit the enterprise's circumstances.

Characteristics of a Unified Digital Transformation Framework

• provides a platform to guide an organization through not only the industry 4.0 wave but also through a disruptive business, hence innovative and sustainable transformation,
• supports organizations' transformation in cross-industry and not concentrating on a specific industry,
• ensures that no areas of the business are misheard or left behind in the transformation process,
• provides a structured methodology to create tangible benchmarks, meaningful measuring metrics and, evident signs of success, progress, and areas where more attention is obligatory,
• supports organizations avoid the pitfalls mentioned above,
• helps organizations in demonstrating a structured roadmap to success – thus, it should work as a transformational central point of success,
• supports organizations in providing an agreed business-wide approach so that employees, operational managers, and executives don't wander away from goals during agile evolving business environments,
• And the most important thing is its adaptability.

Choosing the Proper Digital Transformation Framework for your Organization

The right digital framework is not what a consulting firm or a digital transformation technology provider, or a digital transformation services provider will dictate on your organization. It is the one that is adaptable to your organization yet can be phased into logical, cohesive phases that will show tangible values and progress.

The initial phases ensure the organization knows what it is doing and why it needs to do it. The following phases are about execution and ongoing operational setting:

1.???Transformation Realization Phase:

Vision: The need to have a clear vision of the future for the organization, its employees, its customers and, the overall marketplace in which it operates.

Why: The organization needs to define why it needs to transform that all employees can embrace; also, a belief that means something to customers.

How: The organization needs to leverage internal insights and knowledge to determine the anticipated transformational future state.

2.???Transformation Strategy Phase

Leadership: The importance and scale of a digital transformation are so pressing that a single executive (CDO vs. CIO) is usually appointed to lead the digital transformation, with the full support of the Board, CEO, and the rest of the leadership team.

Strategy: Should include complete market, legislative, regulatory, and competitor insights. Should provide a detailed capabilities assessment of the current state, anticipated future state, need to acquire external capabilities. Should detail metrics that determine when success has been recognized and achieved at each step, what will be done differently, and how (mindset) it will happen. How it will happen is more important than what will happen. These are two of the most vital factors in a digital transformation strategy.

Roadmap: Should define the steps to progress through the digital transformation is established, with the familiarity that it will alter and adjust as required.

3.???Transformation Commencement Phase

Communication. The single most effective component of any digital transformation framework is that it should provide the organization with one unifying corporate digital language.

Work Streams. Distinct workstreams for each of the business core domains of the organization should be affirmed for: customers, processes, people, services, products, and technology.

Culture-centric. A devoted, predominant corporate program that ensures the organizational culture evolves and adapts to the transformational changes. It is essential to dedicate corporate communication, awareness sessions, workshops, and other initiatives to put the change processes, outcomes, and progress in perspective for all stakeholders at all organizational levels.

4.???Transformation Sanitizing Phase

Appraise. Constant assessment of the metrics to determine advancement towards the future state should be undertaken. This informs the Board and Leadership teams and forms the foundation of the transformational culture and communications program.

Benchmarks. Establishing new benchmarks begins at the start of the transformation program. New business habits of performing things cannot be measured effectively against the old (outdated) methods.

Axles. When a change from the initial transformation plan and framework is required, pivots occur. These are informed by the assessment and benchmarking processes. The transformation aims to progress toward the future state, and changes in direction without changing the end goal might be obligatory.

Three Things to Avoid when Transforming

The three most common vital faults that organizations commission a digital transformation are enough to disrupt the program. While any of these three mistakes can occur at any time, they are all interconnected:

1.???Focusing only on digital technology. The most common mistake is that organizations focus on a transformation disruptive digital technology component of a framework. This is often done because it is the most widely common and understood trigger for commencing the digital program of work. While digital technology is a vital component, overlooking the other workstreams in the?Initiate?phase will derail the transformation rapidly.

2.???Creating silos. Working in silos is the enemy of digital transformation. If all work streams are not collaborating, the digital program will fail. Working in silos is a vital sign of failure. Working in silos means digital understandings are not shared, duplication will occur, and progress will diminish. Silos commonly emerge due to people or teams trying to control and manage their assignments through a period of dramatic change. It is a common and natural human response to being overwhelmed and fearing a new and uncertain future; the unknown. The resolution is to ensure that there are regular and clear communication awareness/workshops at all levels of the organization. Yet ultimately, working in a collaborative environment is one of the desired outcomes of any unified digital transformation framework.

3.???Invest-less in culture change. Even if every digital program's workstream is working collaboratively toward a common corporate goal and digital technology is not the only focus, an organization's digital transformation can fade if there isn't an adequate investment in the corporate cultural change stream of the digital transformation framework. An organization is made up of its people; if they are not kept informed throughout the transformation – of all the good, the bad, and the ugly – the digital program will not succeed. Investing in the culture and hence in the internal corporate communication stream is vital to the organization riding the ups and downs of the digital turbulence.

No Wonder

The statistics give the impression of a general dilution to achieve a successful digital transformation. Some (predicted/forecasted) statistics are encouraging, but most facts & stats are thwarting. No wonder considering the mass of external and internal pressures and complexities that an organization has to address. No wonder that the digital transformation programs' percentage of success is meager. No wonder some IT services conglomerates decided to reskill thousands of their employees and leadership and inject thousands of digital-savvy new hires. No wonder some organizations are still struggling to understand digital transformation at scale. No wonder that we see many (ambiguous) transformations frameworks and models which confuse the industries.

I lean towards the following three main reasons for such attenuation: (1) the lack of clarity in the digital strategy, digital implementation approach, and comprehensive digital roadmap, (2) the absence of the right skilled people at organizations and the IT services companies (You Can't Give What You Don't Have), and (3) the lack of digital transformation change management capability at both IT services companies and organizations. Therefore, a broad spectrum, business-capabilities-based, digital transformation framework is becoming necessary to achieve a coherent and clear roadmap hence a successful transformation journey.

The future belongs to the brave! Leadership is born through dramatic periods of transformation, yet good leaders do not do it alone. Surrounding them are people with the right talent and mindset and those ready to take a digital transformation framework and adapt it to the needs of their organization.

By following the right strategy, roadmap, and principles hence the right digital transformation model, any organization can create a logical and realistic approach to drive success in the period of radical change.

Takeaways

1. Transformation requires a combination of many enterprise capabilities: exemplary leadership, strategy, culture, optimized business processes, and the right disruptive technologies.
2. Effectiveness change management strategies are forcing organizations to rethink their approaches to transformation.
3. Executives realize that the answer to a successful digital transformation isn't better technology; it's better than everything else around it.
4. These statistics clearly show that digital transformation is set to continue for the foreseeable future.
5. Digital transformation is a must, but it is also a competitive advantage.
6. Despite the necessity of using technology to transform business, most companies have yet to complete their digital transformation plans or formulate an effective strategy that scales.
7. CIOs are the owners of digital transformation efforts, but they're not alone.
8. Organizations need a dedicated leader for digital strategy (besides the CIO).
9. Getting buy-in, support, and help from other leaders or employees.
10. It is essential to ensure a common understanding of digital efforts.
11. Modernization or optimization is tactical and digital transformation is strategic.
12. Modernizing your business processes is a significant advantage, but that's not all digital transformation all about.
13. Be customer-centric in your digital efforts. Digital transformation goals can be about your internal processes and productivity. But, the ultimate purpose is to be able to connect with and engage your customers.
14. Last but not least, a broad spectrum digital transformation framework to challenge the inside-out business capabilities (not people capabilities only) is becoming a necessity to achieve a successful transformation journey.
