Why Cognascents + MiraCAD?
According to Forbes, McKinsey, BCG, KPMG and Bain & Company, the failure rate of digital transformation projects falls between 70% and 95%. Why is this? It actually has nothing to do with the technology itself, and everything to do with the people and processes it’s intended to support. Without embedding these critical elements into the technology implementation, success is unlikely. Through the partnership of Cognascents and MiraCAD, we ensure the alignment of people, processes, and technology, facilitating a successful digital transformation.
