Challenges Businesses face in 2022 and beyond
In retrospect, lessons learnt when embarking on Automation and digital transformation journey had been:
- Where to start for the journey.
- A competent interface within the organization to translate the company’s business and operational requirements to Project User requirements.
- Effective management of the solution providers and contractors to ensure they understood and executed the User Requirements correctly.
- Projects falling short of getting Right First Time resulting in scope creep, schedule and budget overrun.
- Uncertainty in leveraging the latest industrial revolution technology including IIOT, data analytics, AI and cloud computing to fit to the business processes and operation philosophy.
- Lack of right collaborating partner.
- Lack of Involvement of company’s multidisciplinary stake holders.
- Tendency to use technology to fix broken processes, trying to implement piecewise systems and missing seamless integration.
- An unguided and unguarded project often led to only partial satisfaction, compromise on User Requirement Specification and faced Life Cycle Issues of Assets.
Looking into 2022 and beyond and in the uncertainties of world 4.0, businesses will face the following challenges and “we cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them” … Einstein.

Automation, Digital transformation should be taken as a necessity rather than choice of Investment. Organizations require to adopt a holistic approach integrating People, Process and Technology with the drive from the executive board and incorporate into the Company’s vision, goals and objectives.
