John Deere And Prose: Digital Transformation Is 80% Strategy And 20% Technology

Last week Boston Consulting Group announced the formation of BCG X, a unit dedicated to digital transformation. They also released a study saying that 60% of companies surveyed plan to increase spending on digital transformation in 2023 despite recession fears, against only 4% planning cuts. The top two focus areas for these initiatives are first, business model transformation, and second sustainability.Don’t Pave a Cow PathRobert Gordon of Northwestern University made noise through the early 2000’s questioning the impact of computers on labor productivity. In fact, productivity growth in the US did surge between 1997-2008, but at no point did gains consistently match what happened from 1947-1973. Looking back, it seems the first wave of digitization, which was about ERP systems streamlining industrial processes, made some difference, but no real “transformation”.Were we paving the cow path then? And, if so, what is different now?The answer may be yes, and the difference now is the digitally empowered customer. Ever since 2000 consumer-facing technology has exploded with around 7 billion smart phones, 4.6 billion social media users, and at least 20 million e-commerce sites now live worldwide
