Expanded Analytics Adoption a Key Driver in Digital Transformation

So what’s the role of data and analytics in fueling digital transformation?

Well, digital transformation calls for new ways of thinking about data and how it’s used. It necessitates breaking data siloes and process barriers that prevent business users and IT from working together. And it requires significant user adoption and use of analytics in an agile, collaborative environment in which business users and IT work to drive timely access to accurate and trusted information.

To reach that end, organizations must dramatically increase the penetration of analytics and empower more business users to make better, fact-based decisions. The smarter, more timely decisions you can make, the stronger your business will grow.

Research by Oxford Economics from 2016¹ seems to bear this thinking out. They surveyed more than 2,050 executives and 2,050 non-executive employees in 21 countries and across multiple industries. The research shows how data-driven decisions are at the forefront for digital leaders.

78% of decisions are data driven
62% of decisions are made in real time
62% of decisions are distributed across the organization

The bottom line is—users need the ability to quickly access, analyze, and share insight across the entire organization. The problem? Complex environments where analytics are scattered around multiple applications and platforms inhibits business user adoption and prevents users from easily locating and accessing the insight they need when they need it.

So what analytics do business users need?
Where can they find them?
Which analytics can they trust?
And how does IT easily provide business users with the right analytics?

To get answers to these questions and more, watch the replay of “Journey to the Cloud and SAP Analytics Hub,” where we dive into these topics and how SAP Analytics Hub can help.
