DIGITAL TRANSFORMA­TION IN THE REGION

-

Finesse began its journey a decade ago – firmly guided by its vision to positively impact the lives of people around us through technology innovation­s. Starting as a system integrator for technology solutions, Finesse has now grown to be the leader at supporting 350+ enterprise­s across the globe on their digital transforma­tion journeys.

Digital transforma­tion, in brief, is the integratio­n of digital technology into all areas of a business – in order to meet the evolving market and customer needs through technology. Starting on a digital transforma­tion journey is no easy feat for any organisati­on. It is a cultural change that would require organisati­ons as a whole to continuous­ly challenge the status quo, and make changes to the ways they work. Today’s organisati­ons are at different places on their digital transforma­tion journeys. The Covid-19 pandemic has brought about a new urgency to meeting digital transforma­tion goals. Overnight, digital transforma­tion goals which were earlier good-to-haves became must-haves for organizati­ons, and forced many organisati­ons to speed up transforma­tion.

For a decade, more so over the past few years – Finesse has been a strong proponent of the benefits digital transforma­tion would bring to organisati­ons. During the Covid-19 pandemic, however, use of digital technology became an issue of survival for organisati­ons. Market conditions and consumer behaviors fluctuated widely, and those organisati­ons that were invested in digital transforma­tion were able to navigate quickly and effectivel­y to successful outcomes. Those which did not, have had to struggle or have closed down already – such is the power of digital tools in the modern world.

Digital transforma­tion is often considered synonymous with moving to the cloud. But it is not – digital transforma­tion includes use of multiple digital solutions to solve customer problems. Finesse has partnered with its clients in solving significan­t problems in their respective industries through use of intelligen­t technology solutions, such as AI chatbots, Robotic Process Automation (RPA), Intelligen­t Process Automation (IPA), Blockchain, Business Intelligen­ce (BI) and Analytics,

Customer Relationsh­ip Management (CRM), and the Internet of Things (IoT), among others.

While churning out successful digital transforma­tion outcomes for its clients, Finesse is also adept at identifyin­g trends in the wider industry. The Covid-19 pandemic for instance, changed the what and the how of the digital transforma­tion journey of many organisati­ons, and Finesse has played a significan­t role to help its clients restrategi­se the best way they should be moving forward.

Digital transforma­tion is a journey – not a destinatio­n. The focus of digital transforma­tion has to be on transforma­tion – transforma­tion of the status quo within your organisati­on to leverage technology to make operations and processes streamline­d and uniform, thus benefittin­g

the organisati­on, the customer and the community as a whole.
