The importance of technology for medium and large companies

tecnologiaKeeping up with changes in the world is essential, especially in the case of medium and large companies, where the position of CIO or IT Director is not yet well defined. When the subject is technology, it's even easier to understand why.

First, it helps to keep the business going. up to date and competitive in your industry. But, in addition, relying on technology shows the public that the company is serious and seeks reliable and current solutions to your demands.

Check out the top three reasons that make technology an essential investment for medium and large companies, from all segments.

1. Process automation

Technology is present in business sectors that we can't even imagine. A great example of this is the automation, which uses machines and programs to perform tasks previously performed only by humans.

The arrival of automation made it possible for machines to perform the most basic and repetitive tasks in the company. Meanwhile, employees were able to use their potential in strategic and administrative procedures. Thus, automation technology represented a great milestone in the history of companies, revolutionizing the modes of organization and operation.

Let's imagine a shoe store, for example, with a customer asking if there are any number 40 shoes of a particular model available.

Previously, it was necessary to check the stock, box by box, if there was the order in question. If not, it was still common for the seller to go to other stores to try to find the shoe.

Today, just check the system, which already informs if it is available, in which colors, similar models, among other data. In other words, the service time, which used to last an hour, for example, can be reduced to five minutes.

This means more customers being served daily, there is a better shopping experience, employee appreciation and, of course, more productivity.

2. Cost reduction

At first glance, the costs of deploying machines or technological systems can seem like a salty investment. However, it is necessary to think about the long term.

Unlike a traditional employee, technological investments depart from just an expense (except in the case of leased or licensed resources). That is, technology does not demand software license, salaries, benefits, labor taxes, among other very significant expenses for business pockets.

Another point that helps to reduce expenses is the error minimization. Of course, machinery and software also have malfunctions. However, it is not comparable to human errors, which happen more often due to lack of attention, tiredness, little experience, among other motivations.

3. Risk minimization

In addition to the risks offered by production errors, as mentioned in the previous topic, other problems can also be avoided with the use of technology. Among them, we can mention:

  • Access control, which only allows authorized persons to enter the company or in certain environments
  • Information security, through technologies such as a cloud and the blockchain
  • Better team communication, minimizing the chances of mistakes, confusion and misunderstandings
  • Better customer relationship, as the storage of your data allows for a more personalized service

Investing in technology has been less and less an option and more essential for the survival of medium and large corporations.
