Digital transformation

Keep things as they are—or embrace change? This question is never easy to answer and depends entirely on the company, its employees, and existing processes. However, any change should lead to improvement—not deterioration. In the context of digital transformation, the first step is strategic planning. This involves defining key parameters such as scope, timeline, and budget, followed by a deeper exploration of relevant questions. A crucial part of this process is distinguishing which workflows should remain unchanged and which ones require adaptation.

A-SQUARE supports you in developing your strategy and ensures that processes are designed to be more efficient and faster through digital solutions. Below, we present each topic in detail so you can get a clear picture of our service offerings.

Digital strategy

Do you want to actively shape your digital transformation? With a successful digital strategy, you can unlock maximum value across all areas and seamlessly connect them within your organization. Of course, this doesn’t mean forcing every manual process into a software solution. The key is to focus on what truly matters—and to create meaningful added value.
At the beginning of strategic planning, it’s essential to answer a range of key questions. The top priority is to define the primary objective: What should be achieved through digital transformation?

It’s essential that, alongside decision-makers, key employees are also involved in the strategy development process.

When digital transformation is done right, it’s like a caterpillar turning into a butterfly. But when done wrong, all you have is a really fast caterpillar. George Westerman

Strategy development is our top priority and requires a great deal of sensitivity to ensure that all employees support the initiative rather than resist it. Without employee input, no meaningful improvement can be achieved—only you know what works well and what needs to be improved.

Software examination

Every software solution has its strengths and weaknesses—do you truly know yours?

To ensure optimal use of any software, it must be seamlessly integrated with business processes. The first step is a thorough analysis of the system landscape. Based on the available features and the specific software, we then determine which functions are useful and which are still missing. Depending on the scope, we distinguish between a comprehensive overall concept and individual targeted concepts.

Process optimization

That phrase—“We’ve always done it this way”—is familiar to nearly everyone, and it often signals resistance to change. But is sticking to the status quo truly the best path forward? That’s a decision only you can make. In this context, we can offer guidance, but the choice to evolve lies with your organization.
It’s also essential to involve key employees in the optimization process. Only they can provide valuable input when analyzing existing workflows and system structures. Furthermore, these individuals should be actively engaged in shaping future scenarios. In many projects, our contacts couldn’t help but smile—or even laugh—when describing their current processes to us.

The COVID-19 crisis prompted many companies to critically reassess their processes. In this context, the pandemic is often seen as a catalyst for digital transformation. Prior to that, printing was widespread—but in remote work environments, it became impractical and costly. As a result, many organizations began transitioning toward a paperless office. Don’t lose momentum—keep optimizing your processes continuously.
