IFS Study: 26 percent increase in digital transformation initiatives since 2015
IFS研究：自2015年以來(lái)，數(shù)字化轉(zhuǎn)型計(jì)劃增長(zhǎng)了26％

August 17, 2018 - IFS, the global enterprise applications company, has released a primary research study of 200 North American manufacturing executives which reveals more than half of respondents expect their budgets for digital transformation to increase in the next two years.

2018年8月17日——全球企業(yè)應(yīng)用公司IFS發(fā)布了一項(xiàng)針對(duì)200名北美制造業(yè)高管的主要研究報(bào)告，該研究顯示，超過(guò)一半的受訪者預(yù)計(jì)未來(lái)兩年他們的數(shù)字化轉(zhuǎn)型預(yù)算將會(huì)增加。

The IFS study also reveals that substantial investments have already been made in digital transformation initatives, leading to a 26 percent increase since a 2015 study in companies saying their enterprise software did a very good or good job preparing them for digital transformation. Based on the results from the study, IFS believes digital transformation will continue to accelerate in coming years since only 5 percent of respondents expected their budgets to decrease.

IFS研究研究還顯示，數(shù)字化轉(zhuǎn)型啟動(dòng)項(xiàng)目已經(jīng)進(jìn)行了大量投資，自2015年對(duì)企業(yè)進(jìn)行的一項(xiàng)研究以來(lái)，這一投資增長(zhǎng)了26 %，該研究稱，他們的企業(yè)軟件在為數(shù)字化轉(zhuǎn)型做好準(zhǔn)備方面做得非常好或很好。根據(jù)該研究結(jié)果，IFS認(rèn)為數(shù)字化轉(zhuǎn)型將在未來(lái)幾年持續(xù)加速，因?yàn)橹挥?％的受訪者預(yù)計(jì)其預(yù)算會(huì)減少。

IFS’s results are corroborated by analyst research indicating a groundswell of investment in digital transformation. According to a study by IDC, global digital transformation spending will reach $1.7 trillion by 2019, increasing 42 percent over 2017. ”According to the 2018 Gartner Digital Business Survey, 59 percent of midsize enterprises (MSEs) intend to pursue their digital ambitions by both optimizing and transforming their business for the digital era.”

分析師對(duì)數(shù)字化轉(zhuǎn)型投資的研究證實(shí)了IFS的結(jié)果。根據(jù)IDC的一項(xiàng)研究，到2019年，全球數(shù)字化轉(zhuǎn)型支出將達(dá)到1.7萬(wàn)億美元，比2017年增長(zhǎng)42％。“根據(jù)2018年Gartner數(shù)字商業(yè)調(diào)查，59％的中型企業(yè)（MSEs）打算通過(guò)優(yōu)化和轉(zhuǎn)變業(yè)務(wù)的方式來(lái)實(shí)現(xiàn)其數(shù)字化目標(biāo)。”

“Today, a lot more companies feel they are prepared for digital transformation than they felt a year ago,” IFS CTO, North America, Rick Veague said. “It is not likely that 20 percent of the market replaced their enterprise systems. It takes longer than that to identify a project, select technology and implement. Some may have already had projects in place and seen them come to fruition. But a good percentage are now, a year later, more aware of the possibilities. There are simple wins to be had by leveraging more accessible technologies like mobility and, increasingly, IoT. Now that enterprise software vendors have planned their offerings around these technologies, the pace of change can pick up quickly. Those who cannot change at the pace of their competitors will be left behind.”

“相比一年前，今天有越來(lái)越多的公司認(rèn)為他們已經(jīng)為數(shù)字化轉(zhuǎn)型做好了準(zhǔn)備，”IFS北美首席技術(shù)官Rick Veague說(shuō)道。“20％的市場(chǎng)不太可能取代他們的企業(yè)系統(tǒng)。甄選一個(gè)項(xiàng)目、選擇技術(shù)和實(shí)施需要更長(zhǎng)的時(shí)間。有些人可能已經(jīng)有了項(xiàng)目，并看到了成果。但是一年后，現(xiàn)在很大一部分人更意識(shí)到了可能性。通過(guò)利用更容易獲得的技術(shù)，如移動(dòng)性，以及越來(lái)越多的物聯(lián)網(wǎng)，我們可以獲得簡(jiǎn)單的勝利。現(xiàn)在，企業(yè)軟件供應(yīng)商已經(jīng)圍繞這些技術(shù)規(guī)劃了他們的產(chǎn)品，變革的步伐可以迅速加快。那些無(wú)法按照競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手的步伐改變的人將被甩在后面。”

The study also sheds light on the type of digital transformation projects respondents have budgeted for. Analytics and mobility projects were the most frequently funded among respondent companies.

該研究還揭示了受訪者預(yù)算的數(shù)字化轉(zhuǎn)型項(xiàng)目的類型。分析和移動(dòng)項(xiàng)目是被調(diào)查公司中獲得資金最多的項(xiàng)目。
