According to BCG (2021), only 35% of companies execute a fully successful Digital Transformation. What’s the missing link? 

Digital Transformation, while a vital process for any modern enterprise to achieve digital maturity, comes with its own distinct set of challenges. Between having to decide on an entirely new tech stack, ensuring they’re all compliant with your security needs, and getting everyone at your company on board, the problems can seem to pile up before you’ve even started.

However, there’s an unlikely hero of Digital Transformation that gets overlooked: QA. A proper QA strategy will set the foundation for a successful transformation and see your customers more satisfied with a quality product.

Your hosts, James Bent and Rudolf Groetz, will discuss common Digital Transformation challenges and how you can plan to get ahead of them to reduce the impact on your business and customers. They will also delve into:

  • What factors indicate a successful transformation
  • Best technology practices that enable Digital Transformation
  • How QA could be Digital Transformation’s easiest win
  • Implementing intelligent applications of AI
  • How shift-left testing can integrate QA into development 
  • Tips on dealing with inevitable change in software development
