DEFINE DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION
Digital transformation is the use of new, fast and frequently changing digital technology to solve problems.
– Wikipedia
It is the integration of digital technology into all areas of a business, fundamentally changing how you operate and deliver value to customers, according to The Enterprisers Project …
… a cultural change that requires organizations to continually challenge the status quo, experiment, and get comfortable with failure.

DEFINING INTUITIVE
Intuitive means having the ability to understand or know something without any direct evidence or reasoning process
• Psychics are intuitive• Mothers are intuitive when they know you’re lying
to them• A process can be said to be intuitive as well, if it can
be easily learned without any prior training – like an easy-to-learn software program.
• So what makes a software intuitive?… with the help of InEight’s own Director of UI/UX, Fred Hall

UTILIZING APPLIED KNOWLEDGE
“An intuitive UI makes people want to use the software (they love it) versus being forced to use the software (they hate it).”

DON’T MAKE ME HAVE TO THINK
“An intuitive user interface is a user-friendly UI that avoids a user getting lost, confused, guessing, experimenting, reading a manual book, or even asking help of others.”

DO A FEW SANITY CHECKS
Are we prepared for this?
• Did we allocate budget?
• Do we expect it to take time?
• Is change management accounted for?
Do we have the right people?
• What is a “stakeholder”?
• Is there executive sponsorship?
What is important to us, really?
• What does “more efficient” mean to you?
• How will you quantify success?
• Is it SMART?
• What’s next?

FOCUS ON FIXING PAIN POINTS
For a digital transformation to be successful, executives and managers must start with a clear definition of how digital will create value for the business.

LOOK FOR QUICK WINS
There are three areas in construction and capital projects that are ripe for a “quick win” through a digital transformation.
1. Documents 2. Time Tracking 3. Cost Management
