Digital Strategy
Digital roadmap and strategic planning and implementation in a building materials company.
The challenge
Leading construction materials company with presence in multiple markets in the South American continent, as a productive company, has been focusing on operations, gradually leaving aside the opportunity to radically transform its business.
The goal was to generate a roadmap for digital transformation, identifying opportunities to generate value through the use of data, automation and digitization of processes that transform the way the business operates. This was done by understanding the current situation of the company, identifying industry trends and translating them into a digital roadmap.
The ability to rethink the entire business with a data-driven approach has meant a more efficient operation and the ability to keep up with the latest trends in technology.
The strategy
Through interviews, workshops and data analysis, we were able to co-create a vision of the future that was deepened with specialized work tables where the objectives were translated into concrete initiatives, which were prioritized to achieve planning. Subsequently, we also supported the design of the strategic planning of the entire company, which is in full execution with the support of a PMO led by Brain Food; where we have also supported in demand forecasting, reporting and Cloud architecture.
