Digital Transformation Strategy

47% of Austrian SMEs have no formalised digital strategy. They react to technology instead of shaping it. We help you develop a realistic, prioritised roadmap, and then implement it consistently.

Why strategy must come before technology

47%

of Austrian SMEs have no formalised digital strategy, they decide reactively, often under sales pressure (WKO Digitalisation Barometer).

45%

higher revenue growth is achieved by companies with a clear digital strategy compared to those acting digitally reactive (McKinsey Digital).

Rank 10

Austria holds in the EU Digital Economy and Society Index (DESI 2023), room for improvement especially in the SME segment.

Many companies start with the technology: 'We need AI.' Or: 'We need to move to the cloud.' This leads to expensive, isolated point solutions without strategic coherence. We start differently: with an honest assessment of where you stand and the question of which technologies will genuinely advance your specific company.

Our approach

Pragmatic, prioritised, tailored to your resources

01

Digital Maturity Assessment

Where do you actually stand today? We assess your processes, tools, data and digital culture, honestly and without sugarcoating. This is the foundation for everything that follows.

02

Strategic Priorities

Not everything can happen at once. We help you identify the initiatives with the greatest leverage, measured against your specific business objectives and available resources.

03

Roadmap Development

A concrete 12–24 month plan with milestones, dependencies, responsibilities and realistic timelines. Not a PowerPoint strategy, but an actionable plan.

04

Governance & Resources

Who makes which decisions? What resources are needed when? How is progress measured? We create the structures that enable consistent implementation.

05

Implementation Support

We stay involved. Not just as strategy advisors, but as implementation partners. We coordinate between projects, escalate blockers and ensure strategy becomes reality.

AI as a tool in the digital strategy

Generative AI and AI-powered workflows are changing what mid-sized companies can achieve, document processing, customer service automation, data-driven decision-making. We help you assess where AI creates concrete value for your company and where it currently doesn't justify the hype. AI is evaluated in your roadmap as one of several tools, not as an end in itself.

From the field

Austrian manufacturing SME · ~150 employees

The company was working with a patchwork of Excel, an outdated ERP solution and isolated point tools. Under pressure from a supplier, the purchase of an expensive AI solution was imminent. After a digital maturity assessment and joint strategy development: an 18-month roadmap, consolidation onto a modern ERP platform as the core, AI use cases clearly defined and planned for phase 2, with a realistic business case rather than gut feeling.
