Industry 4.0 faces challenges related to the energy crisis and the perception of inaccessibility for small and medium-sized enterprises. Data management is the starting point for digital transformation, prioritizing its organization and strategic processing. The human factor and customer needs must guide any digital transformation strategy.
Both CRM and CDP technologies are valuable tools but serve different purposes. While CRMs focus on managing customer interactions, CDPs concentrate on collecting and understanding customer behavior data. The choice depends on the specific needs of each business: sales and service roles may benefit more from a CRM, while customer management strategy roles might leverage a CDP more effectively. Ultimately, it’s important to assess what kind of information is needed and how it will be used to make more informed business decisions and provide personalized customer experiences.
When visualizing data, it is important to consider the objective and tailor the graph to the desired storytelling. The audience for whom the results will be shown also influences the choice of graph type. The size and type of data, as well as the relationship between variables, also determine which type of graph is most suitable. It is advisable to experiment with different graphs and use multiple graphs to maintain clarity and show comparisons, trends, and relationships between variables.
Virtual assistants and chatbots offer efficient and personalized customer experiences by anticipating problems and providing solutions. Intelligence applied to customer experience enhances satisfaction and provides insights into business and consumer behavior. Intelligent, empathetic, and personalized experiences are key to satisfying demanding and informed consumers.
Spanish SMEs, especially in the industrial sector, have low digitalization penetration and need to invest in technology and change their culture to maintain competitiveness. The Digitalization Boost Plan for SMEs 2021-2025 and European Union funds for digital transformation aim to encourage the adoption of new technologies. SMEs often have a distant perception of Industry 4.0 and make mistakes by thinking it only involves having a website and storing data in the cloud. To unlock the true potential of Industry 4.0, SMEs need a comprehensive combination of technologies and a holistic vision, supported by technology partners and data experts.
Data science strategies are increasingly used by Spanish companies, positively impacting organizational performance and higher levels of resilience. It is crucial for companies to own their data and ensure its quality, and to adopt a data-driven approach for making strategic decisions based on data analysis and interpretation. Managing one’s own data provides flexibility and capacity to address current and future business needs, but requires a data governance policy and appropriate attention to data integration, quality, and management.
