The need
In today's world, digital transformation is essential for staying competitive. To succeed, businesses need thoughtful planning and a well-defined strategy. Vantaan Valo Ky, the holding company behind Finland's largest shopping center, Jumbo, understood the complexity of this challenge. The company recognized that, to effectively begin their digital journey, they needed to start with a strong foundation. This foundation included conducting a comprehensive feasibility study to guide and inform their strategic implementation.
Vantaan Valo set out to redefine their digital strategy, recognizing that a deep understanding of their current state was needed first. They realized that a successful large-scale digital transformation would require a clear assessment of their existing infrastructure’s strengths and weaknesses. This led them to initiate a strategic feasability study project with Valve, focusing on gathering insights into their digital systems and identifying necessary actions.
This initial phase of the project aimed to provide Vantaan Valo a comprehensive view of their technology stack, digital processes, and potential areas for improvement. By assessing these factors early, the company could develop a targeted approach to their broader transformation, ensuring their digital efforts would align with business goals.
The solution
A detailed analysis was carried out leading to a comprehensive 90-page report, which offered an in-depth overview of Vantaan Valo's digital environment. This report assessed existing technologies, reviewed operational processes, and highlighted areas with potential for digital improvement.
Beyond evaluating the current landscape, the report included specific, actionable recommendations focused on enhancing digital capabilities, optimizing existing tools, and creating a roadmap for future digital strategy implementation. Insights from this feasability study were crucial in helping Vantaan Valo prioritize next steps and streamline their digital transformation journey.
The results
The feasability study played a pivotal role in preparing Vantaan Valo for a successful digital transformation. By delivering a comprehensive view of the company’s current digital landscape and actionable recommendations, the 90-page report enabled Vantaan Valo to move forward with confidence. This extensive documentation became a valuable resource for both immediate improvements and long-term planning.
With an in-depth understanding of their technology and business needs, Vantaan Valo is now well-equipped to define a full digital strategy. The feasability study and its findings, have established a data-driven, thoroughly researched foundation that aligns with the company’s overall objectives, setting the stage for a focused and effective transformation.
By investing in this initial phase, Vantaan Valo has laid the groundwork for a successful and sustainable digital transformation. As they now enter the next phase of their digital journey, the company is better positioned to implement meaningful changes that will drive their business forward in the digital age.
