Coordinated Continuous Digital Transformation

Abstract

We posit that AI-Enabled Enterprise is the next phase of digital transformations seen so far. We will start by defining more precisely what we mean by digital transformation and argue that it’s important to ensure these transformations are well-coordinated. We posit this coordination should be seen as a continuous process and take a model-enabled perspective on it. In doing so, we will argue for the need to identify (and manage) so-called enterprise design dialogues, where enterprise models are positioned as a key artefact in support of these enterprise design dialogues. Before concluding, we also review some of the challenges and opportunities towards future research.
