The Digital Workplace Can’t Work Without Data Workflow

Chuck Orrico, Executive Vice President at DYOPATH  

As The Enterprises Project recently pointed out, organizations today need to adapt to supply chain disruptions, time-to-market pressures, and rapidly changing customer expectations through digitalization. But some approaches work better than others. In a recent blog, I discussed the critical need for a game plan first, before automating your workflow. Important questions must be answered before diving into a solution that might not be the best match for your needs.  

Is big data still being manually processed in your organization? What else is needed to prepare you for the monetary investment that digitization requires? The right Managed Service Partner (MSP) doesn’t just swoop in with solutions. They help you grasp those initial questions so that your data workflow can become digital-ready at every level of the organization.  

Is Your Organization Ready to Automate Its Workflow to Increase Efficiency?  

Workflow automation ensures the flow of work-related activities can be performed independently, with minimal interruption. Determining your readiness for automation requires you to identify the processes and systems within your organization that will be impacted. From what I’ve seen, your attitude toward change can also determine your readiness to begin automating your workflow. Whether a place is more forward-thinking or focused on the past alone is a pretty good indicator. 

Asking key questions can help determine whether you’re ready for a digital workplace: 

1. Is cross-communication between departments encouraged or ignored?  
2. Are processes a certain way because they’ve always been that way? 
3. Is the organization more adaptable and flexible or more risk averse? 
4. Does your organization welcome input or adhere to party lines?  

What you don’t want is digital change just for the sake of it. A trusted MSP with a long record of excellence such as DYOPATH can take an organization through all the necessary steps in the digital transformation playbook to ensure it is truly ready.
