Digital transformation is the integration of digital technology into all areas of an organization. When your business implements a digital transformation, it fundamentally changes how you operate and deliver value to your customers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Compared to prior industrial revolutions\u2014in mechanical power, mass production, and automation\u2014the digital revolution is evolving faster than anything the world\u00a0has seen before.<\/p>\n

This digital transformation is well underway in most of\u00a0our daily transactions and communications. It powers\u00a0and organizes our economies, our productivity,\u00a0and so much more. It\u2019s the connectivity we experience directly using phones, smart devices, and screens;\u00a0and the connectivity we experience but don\u2019t see\u2014from the way major transportation systems function and\u00a0nations cooperate, to something as simple as a crate\u00a0of ripening produce arriving just in time to be sold\u00a0in your neighborhood grocery store.<\/p>\n

Digital transformation has already changed the\u00a0landscape of business. We\u2019ve seen it happen in\u00a0consumer businesses. According to the International\u00a0Data Corporation, 85% of enterprise decision-makers\u00a0say they have a time frame of two years to make significant\u00a0inroads into digital transformation or they believe they\u00a0will fall behind their competitors and suffer financially.1<\/sup><\/p>\n

A series of drivers is behind the need for digital\u00a0transformation in the scientific community: avoiding the\u00a0creation of data silos, connecting global teams and\u00a0partners, and enabling teams to work more efficiently.\u00a0We recognize the need to change to address these\u00a0challenges and have made major progress in implementing\u00a0our own digital transformation, and in partnering with\u00a0our customers to help them manage their transformation.<\/p>\n

Although the benefits of seamlessly connecting\u00a0laboratory instruments<\/a> and equipment may seem apparent,\u00a0the logistical path forward\u2014from unconnected equipment\u00a0to a fully IoT<\/a>-enabled ecosystem\u2014can seem daunting.\u00a0But the importance of digital transformation is clear.\u00a0Scientific and diagnostic data is the greatest asset\u00a0that a scientific organization has. Unlocking the ability\u00a0to more easily access that data and make faster,\u00a0better-informed decisions can have a huge impact.\u00a0But digital transformation goes beyond just data. It is\u00a0people working together across internal and external\u00a0networks in a seamless and collaborative manner.\u00a0When using these newly integrated systems and digital\u00a0automation improved lab processes<\/a> free up human\u00a0capacity ultimately speeding the path to scientific\u00a0acceleration and lab productivity.<\/p>\n
