The COVID-19 pandemic has forced businesses of all types to adapt to technology. Given the uncertain nature of the pandemic and the operational changes it has heralded, now is the time to usher in new technologies.
As we stand on the brink of a technological revolution — the fourth industrial revolution, IT Organizations are beginning to embrace new forms of digital transformation to remain relevant in a rapidly-shifting world.
Around 88% of business leaders in India polled in the Microsoft Asia Digital Transformation Study have acknowledged that cloud computing is an essential part of their digital transformation strategy and that cloudification has made it more affordable for Software Companies of all sizes to embark on their digital transformation journey.
What is Digital Transformation and why does it matter?
Digital transformation refers to the cultural, organizational, and operational transformation of an Software Organization, industry, or ecosystem through the use of digital technologies, processes, and competencies at all levels and functions across all functions. By leveraging digital technologies, organizations are able to generate value for various stakeholders and adapt to changing conditions quickly.
Software Development Companies like TechDoQuest (TDQ) strongly believe in digital transformation and help organizations achieve their targets but also ensure that they deliver value to their clients in helping them through this journey.
Some of the initiatives that progressive organizations like TDQ have incorporated in their digital transformation journey are:
Process automation:
Process automation is a core part of digital transformation. Firms use this crisis as a wake-up call to ‘robotize’ and automate back-end/office operations like legal and accounting services, that l have an advantage over the competition.
Easier collaboration:
These Software Organization's also put permanent technologies that ensure their work-from-home-empowered employees can collaborate easily in a post-pandemic business environment.
Better insight:
Using data collection and analytics technologies to transform and streamline a business’ working model and production process is one of the most cited aspects of digital transformation. The pandemic has pushed several organizations to adopt digital technologies for better service delivery to their core customers.
Digital work culture:
Businesses that continue investing in their digital transformation projects will experience another standout benefit that will revolutionize their operations. The businesses that entrench the use of technology to deliver value to the end-user will see a significant work environment shift.

Amidst Web 3.0’s penetration, five technologies are emerging as the most relevant ones for India’s digital transformation shift. These technologies will fundamentally alter the way we live, work, and relate to one another. In its scale, scope, and complexity, the transformation will be unlike anything humankind has ever experienced before.
Artificial Intelligence: — Intelligent Machine or software that can learn and perform tasks independently, without human interference.
Internet of Things (IoT): — Network of sensors embedded into devices that can collect data or be remotely controlled.
Virtual/Mixed Reality: — Technologies enabling the merging of real and virtual worlds into new and immersive experiences.
Quantum Computing: —A next-generation computer solves data equations much faster than a traditional computer using a different computation system.
Next Generation Computing: —Computers and software that can process natural language, gestures, and visuals.
