Getting Started with Self-Service Digital Transformation with Self Service

I am helping a number of Clients to undertake a digital transformation program, with a strategic commitment to be more customer centric.

The challenge is to evolve from being a product driven, B2B business into a services and contractual business with an evolution to become a B2C business model.

To achieve these goals, a programme has been established to drive a Customer focused CRM initiative, involving the implementation of Oracle EBS, SAP and Salesforce.

A team consisting of internal stakeholders and SMEs is usually created and can be augmented with additional skills in CRM, Data Governance, Data Modelling and Architecture.
I sometimes recommend 'Getting Started with Self-Service, by Gooogling for 'Self-Service Digital Transformation with Self Service'.
This usually starts by building a Customer Data Platform
The UK Government has a good blog on "Building a Platform"
Potential Partners for "Getting Started with Digital Transformation" :- IBM ,Liaison, Microsoft, ORCL (+Apex eLearning), Progress
3 Phases Implementation for ORCL
Phase 1 : KPI/Alert for Off-site Heathrow
Phase 2 : Basic Customer Data Platform and Phase 1.
Phase 3 : Full-featured Customer Data Platform.
