Top 15 Digital Transformation Companies in the US

In this piece, we will take a look at the top 15 digital transformation companies in the U.S. For more companies, head on over to Top 5 Digital Transformation Companies in the U.S.

Digital transformation is a diverse field and one that continues to evolve with time. As the name suggests, this sector simply involves the transformation of traditional, analog sources of data or business processes into digital data and processes for a host of different benefits. It traces its way back to the 1950s when the semiconductor was invented and allowed the conversion of analog computing to digital computing. The next big shifts started to occur from the 1960s onward, with the introduction of computer aided design in manufacturing in the 70s. Before this, digital planning systems started to make their way across corporations as a method of letting them manage their inventory in the 1960s. From then on, these systems were expanded to also bring materials requirement planning (MRP) and manufacturing resource planning (MRP II) to firms. All these were brought under the umbrella of what is now termed enterprise resource planning (ERP), a leading technology that continues to evolve today and is at the heart of what is termed a digital transformation.

However, backend processes are not the only ones that have been digitally transformed.  The late 1990s were the era of the Internet, and naturally, this was blended with the newly set up ERP systems. This integration enabled firms to communicate with each other to share different information such as delivery status, order invoices, and demand forecasts. The latter is particularly important for avoiding the bullwhip effect, which is the result of a demand mismatch between two companies at different ends of the supply chain. Finally, another aspect of digital transformation is the digital storefront,  which allows companies to interact with customers over the Internet.

Naturally, the vast scope and the countless benefits offered by digital transformation lead to some impressive market valuations. A fresh report from Polaris Market Research estimates that the industry was worth $588 billion in 2021. From then, until 2030, the research firm expects it to grow at a strong compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 23.6% to be worth an estimated $3.7 trillion. Polaris Market further outlines that the healthcare segment was the largest portion of digital transformation in 2021, and North America was the dominating region.

Today’s piece will focus on some leading digital transformation companies that offer their products and services in the segment. The top players are Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT), Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOGL), and Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:AVGO).
