The Digital Maturity Model is a framework designed to evaluate the current level of digital capabilities within an organization and to provide a structured pathway for digital transformation. It helps businesses identify gaps in their digital strategy, align digital initiatives with business objectives, and prioritize investments in technology. By using this model, organizations can systematically improve their digital operations, enhance customer experience, and gain competitive advantages in their industry.
