OVERVIEW

The only constant is change. Digital is disrupting all parts of value chain of any organisation. Constant shifting and realignment of business operations are almost necessary for all businesses in today’s context. Business Transformation is a change management strategy that aims to align people, technology and processes of a company to maximise value to critical stakeholders. Building a platform or an ecosystem is almost essential these days and it is often a differentiating factor that sets one apart from others.

(2/2) Mapping Platform Business Model

The Platform Business Model Map serves as an analytic and visualisation tool to identify the key stakeholders in a platform, understanding the value that was exchanged among stakeholders and provided to the platform. Building a platform business is different from building a traditional business model. Therefore, it is important to understand the strategy behind a platform business.
