Transformation is vital but it comes at a price. How do you ensure a healthy return on that investment? How extensive should your digital transformation be and what should it focus upon? With every organisation starting from a unique position and setting unique goals, there is no universal model. So you need to know what all the predictions and projections could specifically mean for you.
That’s where the TD SYNNEX Next-Generator tool comes in. You enter details of your current business focus and future direction. From this the tool calculates your likely cost of transformation and expected returns, modelling the potential effects of anticipated growth in the whole market and assessing what that could mean for your business alone.
Your score identifies your potential returns and likely cost of transformation. We combine this data with business insights and give you tailored advice to help you prepare and plan for the profitable digital transformation you need. And we’ve identified five key actions to deliver Next-Generation success:
- Moving to a cloud and third platform technology architecture
- Focusing on recurring rather than project-based revenue
- Retargeting sales from a technology-led approach to answer specific business needs
- Adopting a specialism
- Efficiently creating complete, outcome-driven solutions for customers.
