G lobal companies that are digital leaders view IT as crucial to meeting their strategic goals, according to executives polled in an Economist Intelligence Unit survey.

Mike Nefkens, executive vice president and general manager of regions and industries for DXC Technology, a global IT services and solutions leader, knows well the challenges companies face. “Most enter- prises need to execute quickly at extreme scale, and they must innovate globally while keeping their infra- structure secure,” he says. “Technology service providers can create a new digital platform that frees up organizations to focus on differ- entiated services instead of traditional IT plumbing.” An external technology partner can also add a critical aspect to the digital journey. “Companies must engage differently—with cloud providers, service integrators, and other ecosystem participants,” says Dan Hushon, senior vice president and chief technology officer at DXC. Why all this collaboration? Because digital is about much more than just learning or implementing a technology—it’s a vast cultural change in the way we work. A complete digital transformation involves empowering employees, optimizing business processes, and reimagining how employees work with clients and collaborate internally. “True digital transformation is about bringing information into the fabric of every transaction with a client, employee, partner and process,” Hushon says. But a complete transition to digital can’t happen overnight. “For at least the next five years, it will be a hybrid world. Since many applications are too costly and risky for comp- anies to tackle all at once, companies will have one foot in the traditional world and one in the digital world,” Nefkens says. “But once companies replace archaic infrastructures and applications with modern, next-generation IT solutions, they will be able to move faster, stay a step ahead of their competitors, get to customers first, and create new growth. That’s the definition of a successful digital transformation.” ADVERTISEMENT The future of business: How DXC Technology is leading digital transformation Mike Nefkens Executive Vice President and General Manager of Regions and Industries, DXC Technology Dan Hushon Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer, DXC Technology Technology service providers can create a new digital platform that frees up organizations to focus on differentiated services instead of traditional IT plumbing.
