Stages of formation of a strategy for digital transformation of an industrial enterprise

The article provides a literary review of existing theories and practices of views on the essence and content of the concept of “digital transformation of an industrial enterprise.” The main trends in the development of digital transformation in foreign industries were identified on the example of Siemens PLM Software, Dassault Systèmes, ANSYS, PTC Siemens, General Electric, Boeing, Airbus, Lockheed Martin Space Systems. The paper studied the materials on digital transformation and industrial digitalization presented in the reports of Allied Market Research, PwC, McKinsey, Deloitte Industrial Transformation Framework, Accenture, Boston Consulting Group (BCG), and of such industrial companies as Siemens PLM Software, Dassault Systèmes, ANSYS, PTC, Siemens, General Electric, Boeing, Airbus, Lockheed Martin Space Systems. However, we have to admit that this concept of digital transformation of an industrial enterprise is gaining only small momentum at domestic enterprises and does not find practical application, which in turn indicates that this study is of interest for the Russian industrial enterprises. The purpose of the study is to present the stages of forming a strategy for the digital transformation of an industrial enterprise for effective development of the production and economic system. The author of the article obtained the following results. An analysis and literature review was carried out, on the basis of which it was concluded that today there is no single generally accepted concept of “digital transformation of an industrial enterprise” and its definition, despite the relevance of this task. The definition of “digital transformation of an industrial enterprise” was introduced into scientific circulation from the perspective of transforming the internal environment of enterprise management. The characteristics of the main elements of the digital transformation of an enterprise were described. An overview of the implementation of digital technologies in foreign and domestic industry, as well as their intermediate results were shown. The stages of forming a strategy for the digital transformation of an industrial enterprise are presented, and the main stages of implementing the roadmap were described. Factors and risks that are a significant problem when implementing a digital transformation project were identified. The paper proposed practical recommendations for developing a strategy for the digital transformation of an enterprise to achieve effective development of the production-economic system.
