Darwin, Solomon
Publication date: 7/31/2015, pages 1-23

This case illustrates how the intersection of new digital technologies is transforming the way organizations conduct business. Faced with the inherent inefficiencies of operating within a $6.8 billion corporation, executives at HCL Technologies launched "Starting Point," an internal centralized digital platform.

This case tells the Starting Point story in three parts: Recognition of the need for a mobile strategy; execution of the initial digital platform; and an evaluation of the digital platform’s benefits.
