It is a process of identifying where value is created, evaluating opportunities, estimating potential benefits, developing mechanisms for capturing value and monitoring progress with adjustments as necessary. When you embed a value realization framework into your organization's culture, you continually capture and maximize the benefits of digital transformation. Fostering a mindset of ongoing evaluation, learning and adaptation across all levels of your organization will enable sustainable success.
