Legacy systems a major barrier to digital transformation, says report
Legacy systems, lack of change management capabilities and relevant skills are among the key hurdles for digital transformation in 2019, a report released Tuesday said.
The 'Infosys Digital Radar 2019' research report also found that companies must operate key digital initiatives at scale and focus on a broad range of technologies to reach the most advanced stage of digital transformation.
According to the report, businesses can be grouped into three clusters based on their progress along the digital transformation -- 'visionaries', 'explorers' and 'watchers'.
Visionaries are those who understand the potential of digital to completely transform their business while explorers commit to digital programmes driven by the need to enhance customer experience.
Watchers are those who see digital through the prism of efficiency, the report released at the World Economic Forum (WEF) annual summit here said.
