1. Top 3 Reasons Why Digital Transformation Projects Fails Top 3 Reasons Why Digital Transformation Projects Fails Sun Technologies’ Digital Transformation Services Digital transformation is a broad term, and it is also a long-term plan which has to sync with the organization's business culture. In the past two years, we have observed that most organizations have already kick-started their digital transformation process and integrated emerging digital technologies into their work. This sudden change has pushed organizations to be at a competitive edge by re-creating their business in the digital age. The end goal for any organization varies on many factors at the evaluation stage of the digital transformation journey, which include  Enhancing customer experience, improving productivity and efficiency  Improving collaboration internally and externally to build a more agile business  Optimizing business operations, and increase ROI

2. A successful digital transformation brings many valuable changes for both organizations and customers. But due to some internal and external factors, the journey may not end with success and may fail in digital transformation. To benefit from the successful digital transformation process in this blog, we will brief the top 3 reasons why digital transformation fails and suggest ensuring that your digitization process is successful. Undefined End Goals of Digital Transformation Most organizations believe that the digital transformation process is optimizing their legacy systems and integrating them with emerging technology by automating the entire system, which improves user experience without a fine awareness of the defined business goals and strategy. This will also lead organizations to over-estimate or under-estimate the entire transformation journey. As digital transformation is a long-run process, organizations should have predefined realistic business goals aligned with a customized strategy and implementation plan by saving costs in resource allocation and increasing productivity. Fixed Organizations Culture and Mindset An organization's management mindset and business culture can make or break any digitization journey. A flexible and resistant mood of culture can help the organization to achieve success in its digital transformation. It is recommended to restructure and bring necessary changes in the management which are adapted to the trends and more resistant to the market. Organizations' business leaders have to invest the majority of their time in identifying and providing the right training and education to moulid them into expectations in modern technologies, which then leads to success in digital transformation. Not Having the Right Talent or Digitization Vendor Most organizations believe they can kick start and achieve success in digital transformation only by utilizing their existing internal resources, which is unrealistic. The digital transformation will require highly skilled resources with robust hands-on knowledge of digital technologies and a dedicated support team who can monitor the entire transformation journey by ensuring the process is going as a defined roadmap. Organizations with a budget and hiring constraints can also seek help from an IT staff augmentation service provider who can provide resources on permanent or contract basics, completely desponding on the real-time project requirements. Organizations with less experience in digital technologies can benefit by partnering with a dedicated digital transformation vendor who can help define your goals, build a realistic strategy, and implement and provide support throughout the entire transformation journey.

3. Conclusion The digital transformation requires 360-degree flexibility to adopt the changes with the emerging technologies.
