Experts opine. Data predicts.
Every industry is changing at a pace beyond the expertise of external firms and consultants. Trasers Global Transformation Study shows that every industry will experience a near-100% change in the next 5 – 10 years. Recommendations from consultants or ‘expert’ analysts—who take 6 – 9 months to make assessments—run the risk of becoming obsolete, incomplete or misleading, even before they’re implemented. This can result in delays or set the wrong direction for your digital transformation (DT).
The Trasers DT database of 1.5 million data points provides exclusive, objective and DT-focused insights that can remove biases, guesswork and assumptions from your strategic DT planning. Develop your vision, strategy, roadmap and measurement with data, not opinions.

Become a digital champion
Develop strategies and investment priorities.
Use best practices modeled after digital champions.
We call the top 5 – 7% of digital transformers in every function “digital champions”. These are the aggressive, innovative and results-oriented leaders and teams that understand the drivers of transformation and the art and science of data-driven decision making.
What makes digital champions successful
Common characteristics of digital champions include: a deep understanding of their industry DT drivers; intense customer focus; results-driven strategies and priorities; and what makes them excel in execution. They use industry and role-specific DT data to prepare themselves and their teams before and during execution.
Transform with a data-driven GPS
Trasers analyses show that DT of an individual function and the enterprise is a multi-year effort. Much like a long, cross-country drive, the DT game begins with first knowing the terrain. Knowing where you are, setting your destination and selecting the route is the next step. Tracking key milestones along the way and realigning will ultimately help you get there.
Just as a GPS helps you drive in an unknown landscape, Trasers Global Transformation Study helps you set your goals, drive and reach your DT destination.
