In management, business transformation involves making fundamental changes in how business is conducted in order to help cope with shifts in market environment.^[1]

"Business Transformation is the process of fundamentally changing the systems, processes, people and technology across a whole business or business unit, to achieve measurable improvements in efficiency, effectiveness and stakeholder satisfaction. As such, a business transformation project is likely to include any number of change management projects, each focused on an individual process, system, technology, team or department."^[2]

When business transformation is used

The need for business transformation may be caused by external changes in the market such as an organisation's products or services being out of date, funding or income streams being changed, new regulations coming into force or market competition becoming more intense. This management approach also incorporates Business Process Reengineering and is widely used:^[3]

to increase revenue or market share
to improve customer satisfaction
to cut costs

Components

Business transformation is achieved by one or more of: realigning the way staff work, how the organisation is structured, the core product or service portfolio of the business and how technology is used. Typically organisations go through several stages in transforming themselves:^[4]

recognising the need to change and gaining consensus amongst stakeholders that change is necessary
agreeing what form the change should take, the objectives of the change and a vision that describes a better future
understanding what the organization is changing from and what needs to change in detail
designing the new organisational way of working and its support and management
testing and implementing changes, usually in waves, typically over a number of years
bedding in the change so that the organisation cannot move back to how it was and achieves the intended benefits.

Business transformation can lead to developing new competencies and making better use of existing competencies.^[5]

Transformation examples

Examples of organisational transformation include:

General Motors' transformation and restructuring^[6]
BBC's Delivering Quality First programme^[7]
Box's pivot from consumer to enterprise ^[8]
