Challenges & Approaches to Digital Transformations

  • Traditional industry boundaries are vanishing and now they are re-inventing themselves
  • Digital transformation is different for each company and may require multiple companies to work together to achieve
  • Don’t do old solutions on new technology (business impact is zero)
  • Treat internal and customer-facing engagements the same way as product development and leverage best practices (e.g. Scrum)
  • Net Promoter Score (NPS) is key driver and measurement

Rapid Innovation is enabled through Bimodal IT*

OUR APPROACH

Good software is about more than just writing good code and the most successful developers fail given the wrong setup and guidance. Vigience makes sure you focus on the right things and guides you from idea to success

Solutions

We run digital transformation projects based on solutions from Salesforce.com,
SAP and Vigience for medium to large enterprises.

The IT industry is changing at an ever faster pace. The result are dramatically reduced costs associated with IT projects, less risk and much higher IT agility. Digital transformation is happening and traditional industry boundaries are vanishing as they are re-inventing themselves.

This rapid innovation is enabled through the practice of managing two separate, coherent modes of IT delivery, one focused on stability and the other on agility (“Bimodal IT”). Cloud products play an important role in providing that agility and we advise our customers on cloud-migration strategies and realize innovative projects in this space.

Vigience consults its customers in this new world of cloud computing (SaaS), Mobile Business and SAP. Let us help you implement connected cloud solutions as well as cloud strategies that let you have it both: agility & stability.

The key difference: our significant experience in two-speed, Bimodal IT strategies (our Overcast Enterprise Gateway as an enabler thereof) paired with consultants that have both significant experience in Systems of Record (SAP, …) and Systems of Engagement (Salesforce, Microsoft, ..)
