Digital Transformation for Packaging Process Reduces Project Management Time by 40%

United States, Illinois, Chicago - 08/22/2019 — Learn five steps to packaging digital transformation success in Esko’s new e-book

Esko, a global provider of software and hardware for packaging management and collaboration, design, workflow automation, and production, released a new e-book about packaging digital transformation today. In this new e-book, “Five Steps to a Packaging Digital Transformation,” Esko highlights the benefits of implementing a packaging digital transformation, the reason why some fail, and the five steps to success.

 

Why a Packaging Digital Transformation?

Digital transformation is the most impactful way to accelerate business activities, processes, and competencies to deliver results in this rapidly changing business landscape. An article by McKinsey states that costs can be cut by 90%, and Esko has seen digital transformations decrease packaging project management time by 40%. Implementing a packaging digital transformation can further advance key business objectives and redirect employee time toward new product innovation.

 

Five Steps to Success 

As businesses continue to implement digital transformations, it helps to have a guide available to enable a successful transformation. While the e-book discusses the common reason that transitions fail (resistance to change), Esko also highlights the five steps to packaging digital transformation success. Each step is outlined with actionable insights, as well as potential packaging management and digital asset management technologies available when laying out a digital roadmap and strategy. The steps are listed below:

 

1.    Define Your Packaging Digital Strategy and Build a Business Case

2.    Embrace the Change

3.    Organize Your Assets, Data, and Teams for Digital Transformation Success

4.    Leverage Data Analytics and Business Intelligence

5.    Realize the Transformation is Ongoing
