,Lecture 1: Introduction to Digital Transformation Strategy
Digitization = the process of making information digitally available and accessible
Digitalization = the process of considering how digitized information can best be used to
simplify certain operations
Digital transformation = the process of devising new business applications that integrate all
the digitized data and digitalized applications
→ Digitization and digitalizaiton are not necessarily conditions for digital transformation!
You can also jump directly to digital transformation, e.g. through digital platforms (lec 2)
The process of digital transformation
To understand the impact of digital transformation, we need to reflect on firms’ business and
operating model
Business model consists of:
- Value creation: innovation, efficiency
- Value capture: competition, isolating mechanisms
- Value delivery: sales channels, bundling and unbundling
Operating model consists of:
- Scale: volume, complexity, consumers
- Scope: variety, range
- Learning: R&D, continuous improvement, IP generation
In the digital economy, firms’ operating and business models are being radically reshaped.
