This whitepaper sets out the motivators, opportunities, and capabilities developed in a new context of the digital transformation programme from the perspective of adoption as a primary enabler to success and business case delivery, which is essential for those who are directly involved in delivering, having accountability, playing a lead role, or are sponsoring. In essence, this paper advocates the use of a behavioural science-based approach to change and adoption as an effective mechanism to drive return on investment over pre-existing methods.

In short, this paper will provide you with:

  • A clear methodology and approach to drive adoption, over and above compliance
  • Key statistics to articulate your own business proposition
  • A comprehensive set of references to support the investment of a behavioural science-led approach
  • A clear list of interventions and policies needed to make the adoption of a digital procurement platform a success
