Es wird digitalisiert, was digitalisiert werden kann, und es wird vernetzt, was vernetzt werden kann. Die Digitalisierung eröffnet enorme Wachstumschancen – und das über alle Branchen, Sektoren, Regionen und Unternehmensgrössen hinweg. Die Abkehr von der traditionellen Wertschöpfungskette hin zu flexiblen Wertschöpfungsnetzwerken zwischen Kunden und Partnern, wird das Kooperationsmodell der Zukunft sein. Dieses Modell führt zu besseren Prozessen, die die Gesamteffizienz steigern und die Kosten reduzieren. Damit die Digitalisierung gelingt, müssen einige Voraussetzungen erfüllt sein. Gefragt ist ein Partner, der eine langfristige Strategie als „Trusted Advisor“ begleiten kann und über ein umfassendes Branchen-Know-how verfügt. Denn: Digitalisierung erfordert technologische und geschäftliche Kompetenz, welche die T-Systems Schweiz in ihrem Portfolio bündelt.
