The path toward digital modernization is not an easy one, as many enterprises are discovering.
While events of 2020 forced numerous businesses to accelerate plans for transforming IT infrastructure, the process did not always yield the desired outcomes. In fact, research over the past two years has revealed that 70% of digital transformation initiatives fall short of meeting objectives.
This hasn’t deterred senior executives, however, as the research also shows that 80% of them plan to move full speed ahead on modernization goals.
“We’re coming out of a year like none other,” said Brandon Draeger, vice president of compute product marketing at Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co., in an exclusive interview with SiliconANGLE. “If nearly three-quarters of digital transformation projects fail to meet their objectives, it’s going to require a path of modernization for both hardware and software. We need to discuss what can reverse this trend and put people on a path to success.�

If failure is not an option for most organizations, then why is it that digital transformation fails to meet objectives 70% of the time?
Research by McKinsey & Co. in 2019 documented this failure rate, a number that was more recently confirmed by Boston Consulting Group. This question has become more central in the minds of a number of CEOs as a global pandemic has accelerated the pace of digital change for many firms. Now, 80% of senior executives indicate they intend to accelerate digital transformation efforts.
How an organization uses technology, people and processes to reshape business operations and models has proven to be far from easy. Yet, it remains the number one topic in the information technology world, and major technology players are ready to provide advice and solutions.
Netto tests climate labeling to help consumers make conscious choices
Netto will be the first retail chain in Denmark to help customers make more climate-conscious choices through climate labeling of food. This is being done in a pilot in selected stores, where signage and labeling of the products leads customers to the less climate-damaging alternatives. The goal is to contribute to more common climate labeling in the retail sector, thereby reducing Denmark s total CO2 emissions.
Many Danes want to make a difference to the climate and reduce their carbon footprint. This also applies to shopping. With the country s first climate label, Netto now helps anyone who wants to make climate-friendly choices when they are shopping for food.
