Abstract

This paper discusses Five Management Pillars for Digital Transformation integrating the Lean Thinking Philosophy. It proposes a "Digital Lean Transformation Framework" where its five management pillars - (Digital) Strategic Management, Processes (Re-)Engineering Management, (Digital) Technology Management, Change (People) Management, and (Digital) Risk Management - are enriched with lean practices and tools in order to support a digital transformation journey. A case study is also presented as a validation mechanism for the proposed framework, demonstrating its capability to enable process-culture-technology alignment, which is a key enabler for success in any digitalization initiative.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
