Everyone is talking about digitalization, but how do you approach the topic correctly? The first step is a digital maturity assessment.
motivation
The pace is rapidly increasing, innovation cycles are becoming shorter and shorter, and digitization is becoming more and more widespread. The amount of data to be processed has reached such proportions that working methods and the skills required for them are changing. New technologies are emerging in increasingly agile markets, and new digital competitors are trying to take advantage of these changes. However, this rapid development is presenting many companies with enormous challenges that must be addressed as quickly as possible. Those who do not tackle these challenges head-on now will be overtaken by other companies and risk losing their competitiveness and future viability.
Therefore, the right corporate strategy with the right digitalization strategyWhat is a digitalization strategy? A digitalization strategy serves to implement long-term goals... More more important than ever before! Processes are no longer improved in isolation, but transformed as a whole. The same applies to business and IT. Only those who know their level of digital maturity and drive forward both internal processes and customer experiences in a structured manner will become a digital enterprise.
What is a digital maturity assessment?
- How digital are we and how high is the degree of digitization in our organization, our processes and workflows, and in our dealings with our customers and partners?
- What are strengths and weaknesses are present in the individual research dimensions (see Figure 2)?
- What are the key areas of action for us?
- How can we develop?
- Which measures should we take?

Procedure within the framework of the ISR Digital Maturity Check
In the first phase, the scope of the assessment is defined. The ISR Digital Maturity Check covers the aspects of strategy, organization & processes, and IT, to which various assessment dimensions can be assigned (see Figure 2: Assessment dimensions). As part of our approach, we work with you to define the scope of the assessment in relation to the dimensions that are relevant to you. We respond specifically to your wishes and use appropriate process models for each dimension.
Figure 2:Research dimensions (Source: Based on: Berghaus, S., & Back, A. (2016). "Areas of design in the digital transformation of companies: Development of a maturity model," Die Unternehmung, 70(2), pp. 98–123.)
In addition, this phase can be used to find suitable interview partners, define working methods and documentation formats, and develop a common understanding of the concept of digitization.
In phase two, differentiated questionnaires, expert interviews, workshops, system analyses, process maps, and much more are used to collect and document the data, which is then analyzed and evaluated by ISR in phase three.
Based on this, we can determine your current level of digital maturity in the respective dimensions. We identify opportunities for improvement and highlight areas for action and recommendations. We are also happy to provide you with system support proposals, optimization scenarios, and cost-benefit assessments, which we then present in a management presentation.
Once you have successfully completed the ISR Digital Maturity Check, your business transformation can begin. We would be happy to support you in implementing the measures as part of your change management process.
