ABSTRACT

This chapter introduces the Digital Capability Framework as a new approach which guides you along the transformation path and supports you to successfully achieve a digital transformation and to become a Digital Enterprise. The foundation for digital transformation requires a complete understanding and holistic analysis of internal and external possibilities, feasibilities, strengths and weaknesses. In order to provide such a holistic view, the Digital Capability Framework integrates the Business Transformation Management Methodology (BTM). The Digital Capability Framework consists of four individual building blocks. It is built on six core Digital Capabilities, which are the foundation of a successful Digital Enterprise. Then it defines Digital Capability Maturity Models, which are used to measure the degree of maturity for each Digital Capability. The maturity models support the analysis of the 'as-is' situation and provide instruments for planning the prospective 'to-be' scenario.
