4 Effective Technology Acceleration Tips

Are you up-to-date with the current technology landscape what it will look like in the next 5 to 10 years?

1. Think long-term instead of mere rapid acceleration

Technology adoption has increased at an extremely fast pace thanks to the onset of pandemic restrictions. These fast choices and implementations helped many organisations remain relatively unscathed by utilising remote working and other collaborative solutions. However, now that we’ve had time to adapt to the “new normal,” it’s clear that brisk change isn’t always beneficial to the long-term success of an organisation. 

That’s why the time is ripe to prepare for the future by adopting smart tech acceleration. This requires a thorough examination and assessment to evaluate whether your present systems are advanced and integrated enough to support your business objectives over the next five to 10 years, and not just the present.

2. Evaluate previous technology investments

Examine your tech acceleration investments from the previous year (if you have any) to identify where you need improvements. It’s critical to assess whether prior investments have served your long-term vision/goals. Only then will you be able to determine whether your acceleration is on the right track or not.

3. Benchmarking

What is the status of your tech acceleration environment? If it isn’t meeting your expectations, find out what other firms are doing differently to achieve better results. Consider what changes you can make to improve your organisation’s performance to align it closer to your vision.

The metric used to monitor the progress of your tech acceleration initiative should consider levels of cybersecurity, customer experience, employee experience, technology integration across the organisation, backups, compliance and so on.

4. Committing to integration

Individually outstanding solutions that don’t integrate (or that your company doesn’t commit to integrating) will not serve you in the long run or help you scale. Systematic integration unifies the customer and employee experience, reducing the risk of error, increasing efficiency and providing the opportunity to automate repetitive operations, among other benefits.
