Digital transformation is available to all companies

What do a sugar and alcohol plant in the Northeast, a shipyard in Rio de Janeiro and a steel industry have in common? The molding of steel sheets and coils, the climatic relationship involved in each stage of planting and harvesting sugar cane, the assembly of megablocks that make up the structures where the piping, accessories and equipment of large maritime vessels will be incorporated. With production processes of a completely different nature, each of these business lines, in its own way, manages the peculiarities and complexities involved in aspects relating to production and its markets. Ultimately, these organizations, no matter how different their activities may be, all, without exception, need to overcome their most specific challenges and incorporate innovations into their processes and products to increase productivity and competitiveness. What all market players have in common and what will be decisive for success can be summarized in a single word: management.

And management today requires technology. There is no way to increase efficiency and competitiveness in this global market without incorporating business tools, something that today goes beyond the concept of ERP, as management software is known. Technology resources today are able to connect organizations to an advanced world and are capable of bringing the power of technologies such as Big data, analytics, IoT, machine learning, artificial intelligence and mobility to the organization's environment with its profusion of applications. . To have access to this universe of technologies that can provide a big leap in management and efficiency, companies need to rely on partners who, in addition to understanding their business singularities, provide the bridge with the most advanced technologies on the global market.

There are many consultancies on the market willing to do this digital transformation work, but it is more important than ever to know how to choose the one that can actually bring effective results to the business. There are those who are impressed by famous brands and want to choose large international companies, but this path can lead to the failure of a project that requires, for example, greater customization, flexibility, speed and budget viability. If the project is international, global consultancies can make a difference, but locally, Brazilian consultants have greater in-depth knowledge of our country's issues and regulations.

It is essential that companies that have technical knowledge recognized by technology suppliers be considered when choosing a partner. There are Brazilian consultancies with high certifications, guaranteed technological mastery and competence to carry out very complex projects. In the operating ecosystem of the world's leading technological platforms, there are some Brazilian companies, located even outside the major centers, with very high expertise. National consultancies with access to the most up-to-date technical content and recent technological developments. These companies even have their own testing laboratories that apply and test international IT tools to the Brazilian business environment. All of this today can represent a very safe shortcut for customers to achieve the desired innovation.

Therefore, IT is much more accessible to all types of organizations that wish to be modern and competitive. There is no reason not to take advantage of the digital transformation that is drastically affecting and impacting the management of all business sectors. It is these innovative technologies that are shaping and equipping companies to overcome the fierce market competition in the new economic model.
