What is Digital Transformation?
Digital Transformation:
Employing digital technologies to change a process, product, or capability so dramatically that it’s unrecognizable compared to its traditional form.
With the rise of technologies like cloud computing, data analytics, artificial intelligence, and augmented reality, Digital Transformation is more vital than ever.
NASA created Digital Transformation as an agency-level strategic initiative to address how the agency could become more competitive in a digital workplace, use resources more efficiently, and ensure safety from increasing digital threats.
From Maps to Apps: Traditional, Digitized, Transformed. Digital Transformation has already changed our world.

What the Experts say about Digital Transformation:
“When digital transformation is done right, its’ like a caterpillar turning into a butterfly. But when done wrong, all you have is a really fast caterpillar.”
– George Westerman, MIT Sloan Institute on the Digital Economy
“There is no alternative to digital transformation. Visionary companies will carve out new strategic options for themselves – those that don’t adapt will fail.”
– Jeff Bezos, Founder of Amazon
