The Platform Maturity Assessment is the first step of PlatformationTM-driven digital transformation. It is an "outside-in" toolset that helps build the first cut of the client's digital agenda. The assessment evaluates the client organization's potential digital transformation along three axes - digital, platforms and priorities. The assessment takes in information from a variety of sources - primary sources within the organization and its clients and partners, and secondary sources like market and industry reports, analyst studies and corporate databases.
The assessment helps identify senior leadership priorities, past attempts at digital transformation and their success levels, and similar attempts cross the competitor landscape. The results of these assessments help identify opportunities for PlatformationTM-led digital transformation
