Digital transformation of logistics has emerged into the lexicon of the industry but lacks definition and actionable tactics. This paper offers a definition of the term and creates a context for how investments in software and hardware solutions can be applied as a strategy toward a more interoperable logistics community. Tactics and implementation strategies are described along with examples of past, current and future digital transformation initiatives from different facets of logistics. Tactics and strategies are shared with the intent to better prepare organisations to take advantage of the next generation of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) that are evolving rapidly.

Digital Transformation: An Enterprise Transformation Theory Perspective: Exploring the underlying co...

September 2024 · Australasian Journal of Information Systems

Digital Transformation (DT) has emerged as one of the most talked-about phenomena of the decade. The rush of things around DT also exposes its challenges towards effectively integrating digital technologies into the scheme of things. The proliferating literature on DT offers a fragmented understanding and is unclear about the constituents and configuration of the phenomena. The above concerns ... [Show full abstract] primarily arise from insufficient theoretical grounding and deficiencies in the extant conceptualizations. To address these concerns, the article posits an over-arching research question to examine the phenomena while theoretically uncovering its foundational elements. Accordingly, the study resorts to the enterprise transformation framework to explicate the transformative aspects based on a two-phase analysis. The first phase adopts a text-mining approach for uncovering the latent themes underlying the DT scholarship, followed by a qualitative approach involving content analysis. We finally propose a theoretically motivated conceptualization of the tenets of DT. We specifically investigate the phenomenon's scope, ways, means, and ends. The proposed framework is further validated following a multi-case analysis. Our conceptualization grounds and establishes the significance of foundational elements having a theoretical basis for identifying DT. Our examination offers an implementation guide for the practice, which we delineate subsequently.

Les transformations numériques que vivent les entreprises depuis quelques années invitent à s’interroger sur les changements qu’elles induisent sur le travail et sur la « construcion sociale et politique » des marchés. Partant du secteur de l’entretien et de la réparation automobile, les auteurs montrent que les réticences dont témoignent certaines entreprises face aux changements induis par le ...

Digital transformation is unavoidable for organizations nowadays. The promise of financial success pushes organizations to speed up their digital transformation, by increasing the budgets allocated to it. Organizations understand more and more that digital transformation is not only an IT endeavor and that it implies, among others, the important aspect of digital culture. Digital culture goes ... [Show full abstract] hand in hand with the process of digital transformation, being both a premise to, and an outcome of it. As a premise, digital culture can be either an enabler for, or a barrier to digital transformation, which is why digital culture is receiving increased attention in scientific literature. This study analyzes the scientific literature to create a well-rounded definition of digital culture, categorizing and describing in detail the attributes of digital culture, both the ones mentioned by previous studies with a similar purpose and adding new categories to provide a more comprehensive understanding of what digital culture entails. Digital culture is characterized by collaboration, both internal and external, customer-centricity, seamless flow of information, decision making at lower organizational levels, responsiveness and rapid action, innovation and entrepreneurial mindset, risk-affinity, flexibility, agility and adaptability, learning and growth orientation, as well as datadriven decisions, digital-first mindset, openness to unusual career developments and change openness and readiness.
