What is Digitalisation?

Digitalisation is the process of using digital technology to transform business models and create new value – in buildings and industry, this means converting analogue processes and signals to structured digital data that can be collected, analysed and acted upon.

Technical Definition: The process of using digital technology to transform a business model and create new value. In buildings and industry, digitalisation means converting analogue processes and signals to digital data that can be collected, analysed and acted upon continuously.

Why it matters: Digitalisation is not a goal in itself – it is a means of giving asset owners full control over their information and their future. Without digital data, you cannot optimise operations, maintain predictively or make evidence-based investment decisions.

HubMind’s view: We see digitalisation as a journey, not a destination. The most important step is the first: establishing a solid data foundation on which all future analytics and automation can be built.
