Digital transformation is the overall transformation of enterprises in the digital era, which is a systematic, long-term and arduous process. Its essence is not only the upgrading of technology, but also involves business processes, using data to reconstruct and upgrade the business model and operation model of enterprises. But why is it so difficult for many businesses to succeed in their digital transformation?
Lack of strategy: Many enterprises lack a clear strategic plan in the process of digital transformation. In the face of a complex and changeable market environment, some companies have not yet found the focus and business model of future competition. If the future vision is unclear and the strategic plan is not clear, it is difficult to clarify the digital direction of the enterprise. In this case, enterprises often deploy digitalization in silos, and it is difficult to see the value from digital investment.
Misunderstandings and misunderstandingsSome enterprises may mistakenly equate digital transformation with informatization construction, and only let the informatization department lead the promotion, such as introducing new hardware equipment or software systems, while ignoring the importance of deep integration of digital technology and their own business. True digital transformation is much more than that, unlike informatization, which mainly focuses on process efficiency, digitalization involves more business processes, which involves all aspects of the enterprise, including business model, organizational structure, corporate culture, etc.
The 2023 China Enterprise Digital Transformation Index also confirms this observation, which shows that 20% of Chinese enterprises have begun to continuously strengthen cross-departmental or cross-functional capacity building, while 37% of Chinese enterprises are still carrying out digitalization and automation of a single functional department.
Resource and capacity constraintsThe digital transformation of enterprises requires all-round changes, involving strategy, culture, data, technology, processes, organizations and services. This requires not only the blessing of technical capabilities, but also the support and cooperation of senior management. However, at present, it is difficult to reach a consensus within many enterprises, especially among senior managers, and there are obvious shortcomings and weaknesses in resource co-construction and sharing and cross-departmental collaboration.
Industry characteristicsEven in digitally-savvy industries such as high-tech,** and telecommunications, the success rate for digital transformation is no more than 26%. In more traditional industries, such as oil, gas, automotive, infrastructure, and pharmaceuticals, the success rate for digital transformation is less than 10%.

According to the 2023 China Enterprise Digital Transformation Index report, enterprises should build cloud-first infrastructure, build a modern data platform for large language models (LLMs), realize scalable technology platforms and applications, and effectively respond to security risks. In the next 1-2 years, 37% of enterprises plan to invest in cloud technology, and 36% want to invest in security.
