Digitisation is the process of converting physical information and assets into digital form, making them more accessible and easier to use. This can include digitising paper documents, creating digital files, and using digital tools to manage and analyse data. For businesses, the benefits of digitisation are numerous. Here are some of the core benefits:

  • Improved efficiency: Digitising business processes can streamline operations and make them more efficient. This saves time and money, enabling businesses to focus on other areas of their operations.
  • Increased accuracy: Digital data is more accurate than manual data entry, reducing errors and preventing costly mistakes.
  • Better customer service: Digitisation can make communication with customers and meeting their needs easier. For example, digital records enable quick access to customer information, providing faster service.
  • Improved collaboration: Digital tools make it easier for team members to work together and share information, regardless of location.
  • Enhanced security: Digital records can be protected with encryption and password protection, making them more secure than physical records.
  • Better decision-making: Digital tools can help analyse data and make better-informed business decisions, leading to increased profitability and improved overall performance.

However, there are a few things that businesses should consider when digitising operations in New Zealand. These include:

  • Data privacy: It is important to ensure that businesses are compliant with relevant data protection and privacy laws, such as the Privacy Act 2020 in New Zealand, to manage and protect customer data.
  • Access to technology: Businesses need the necessary resources to support the digitisation process, including access to technology such as computers, software, and internet connectivity.
  • Digital literacy: Employees need a certain level of digital literacy to effectively use digital tools and workflows, requiring training and support.
  • Business culture: A significant change in business culture, particularly when shifting from paper-based to digital workflows, may be required. It is important to ensure that employees understand the benefits of digitisation and are motivated to embrace new digital practices.
  • Digitisation roadmap: Having a clear roadmap for digitisation, outlining goals, timelines, and required resources, can help ensure that the process is effective, efficient, and aligned with overall business objectives.
