82% of CEOs Intend to Make Their Business More Digital
Moving business operations to the cloud is a part of making a company more digital. So are migrating workloads to cloud servers and implementing an off-site cloud backup program. Businesses are investing in these initiatives.
Investment in innovation and transformation is a key characteristic of organizations that continued to grow following the last economic downturn.
Gartner, a leading global consultancy firm, has identified three reasons why digital investment decision are harder than ever:
- There is more pressure to choose well. The increasingly digital nature of the world means that organizations are likely to face a greater volume, variety, and velocity of candidate projects tochoose between.
- It is harder to value some projects and, more generally, projects that are transformational innature. There are also more opportunities where the benefit cases are more complex, such asinvestments where the benefits are less linear and less predictable.
- Some projects are different from the current business. Increasingly, a subset of potential andactual projects are digital extensions (as opposed to product line extensions or brandextensions), where the new business is fundamentally different from existing lines of business.Hence, a gut feeling developed from existing business experience might lead stakeholders todigress from their target.
Making wise choices is difficult in the face of a global pandemic and the huge increase in possibilities.
Failure to invest can create other problems, though.
Businesses Can Overspend on Cloud Adoption by 20-50%
“Companies that are unaware of the mistakes made in their cloud adoption will overspend by 20-50%.”
Miguel Angel Borrega, Senior Director Analyst at Gartner, made that observation about businesses after researching how business have moved to digital platforms.
Choosing the wrong platform or investing unwisely can lead to overspending millions of dollars on cloud computing and digital initiatives. Research by McKinsey, another well-known business consulting firm, indicates around 70% of digital transformations fail.
There are four lessons learned from successful transformations:
- The cloud strategy was implemented across the entire organization.
- A Cloud Center of Excellence was established.
- The best cloud workloads and cloud provider were identified.
- Management practices shifted towards suitability for cloud maturity.
More information about these lessons can be found here.
