If you are the Chief Information Officer at a global FMCG, retail, or luxury goods enterprise, this playbook was built for you.
As a technology leader in a fast-moving consumer environment, you are under constant pressure to align digital investments with evolving customer behaviors, while maintaining operational resilience across complex supply chains and regional markets. Regulatory scrutiny around data privacy, consumer profiling, and digital marketing transparency is intensifying. You must demonstrate measurable progress on digital maturity to the board, justify IT spend against customer experience outcomes, and coordinate cross-functionally with marketing, sales, and supply chain leaders who operate on different timelines and priorities. Legacy systems, fragmented customer data, and inconsistent omnichannel execution further complicate your ability to deliver a unified digital strategy at scale.
Engaging external consultants to conduct a digital maturity assessment and roadmap typically costs between EUR 80,000 and EUR 250,000, depending on scope and regions covered. Alternatively, assembling an internal team of 3 to 5 full-time specialists to develop a comparable framework, gather evidence, and produce actionable plans requires 4 to 6 months of dedicated effort. This Digital Maturity Implementation Playbook delivers the same structured approach, assessment tools, and execution templates for a one-time cost of $395.
