12. DIGITAL ENTERPRISE AS THE ENGINE OF CAPABILITY
12
Digital Enterprise is an IT driven business
model created either in response to the
emerging digital market place and digital
value chains or with the desire to create
such shifts or both.

13. DIGITAL ENTERPRISE AS THE ENGINE OF CAPABILITY
13
The Digital Enterprise is built upon the use of
IT to automate the processes(both internal
and external) to create a digital boundary
enabling all stakeholder interactions. This
also creates immense amount of information
to be consumed and acted upon

14. DIGITAL ENTERPRISE AS THE ENGINE OF CAPABILITY
14
The automational and informational side of
digital enterprise is converted into a
transformational drive through the right digital
leadership, a fitting digital strategy and a
supportive digital culture

15. DIGITAL ENTERPRISE AS THE ENGINE OF CAPABILITY
15
Digital Enterprise thrives upon digital
capabilities to compete in the marketplace,
which requires an ‘inside-out’ view of the
strategy to complement the ‘outside-in’ view

16. DIGITAL ENTERPRISE AS THE ENGINE OF CAPABILITY
16
Digital Enterprise is built upon an agile and
responsive digital infrastructure to support the
automational, informational and
transformational drive
