The Post Pandemic Digital Transformation

Let’s start by saying this: the digital future is here to stay. 

The digital economy boomed during the COVID-19 crisis. The fluctuation of the pandemic, and the way it influenced ordering habits, will undoubtedly continue into the foreseeable future. A digital transformation is necessary for businesses to thrive but consistency is critical to enhance the overall customer experience. 

A digital transformation integrates digital technology into all business areas, structurally changing how the company operates and delivers value to customers. E-commerce has redefined convenience by offering a straightforward and user-friendly method to order products, supplies, and services online, a secure payment portal, and reliable and affordable delivery. But it’s not just about the offered experience from the business. It’s more about the way individual customers grasp and reflect on the overall ordering and delivery experience. Customers are changing what they buy and, ultimately, how they buy. The future depends on the innovative solutions that E-commerce platforms provide to respond to their valued customers’ needs.

In the dental industry, traditional ordering methods for supplies can be time-consuming and overwhelming for the entire staff, from assigning a team member to oversee the ordering of supplies while sticking to the set practice budget to fulfilling procedural inventory checks. With over two years of learning how to navigate the pandemic’s unanticipated challenges to the industry, today’s clinicians are shifting their buying habits. Now, it’s highly beneficial to utilize a user-friendly, curated procurement platform and a simplified online ordering process that saves both time and money.

The pandemic has taught us many lessons, and just like any other profession, the dental industry is continuously undergoing changes and adopting new methods to increase production and recoup profits. It’s a well-known fact that dental professionals are focusing on ways to simplify day-to-day operations. Adopting new techniques and utilizing the available technology from intuitive platforms can assist in the continued growth and overall success of a dental practice.

It’s important to remember the advantages of a digital transformation in the dental world when it comes to the procurement of supplies: convenience, flexibility, comparative shopping, comprehensive product variety, discounted prices, fast shipping, and perhaps most importantly, more informed decision making for the practice that benefits the overall patient experience.
