Advantages of having ICT professionals to increase competitiveness
TICs have transformed the way we work and manage resources in the company, and have become a key element in making work development more productive. It has also generated a digital revolution by breaking down the barriers of time and space that existed in the past and giving way to the «reinvention» of the economy, innovation and global competitiveness.

According to the International Data Corporation (IDC), a consulting firm specializing in information technologies, 40% of companies in the region have implemented their digital transformation strategy for 2020. In the last year, this meant a breakthrough for productivity through TICs.

Among other benefits that demonstrate the current boom and importance of these positions in the TIC sector.
However, remember that it is not enough to apply technologies in companies, they will have to examine what type of technology is required and how it works, as well as whether it would have an effect on the company, since technologies do not have the same effect on all companies, it all depends on the sector and size of the organization. Therefore, it is important that businessmen have knowledge about technologies and above all that they can have trained personnel to carry out these processes and meet the objectives they have.
The COVID 19 pandemic also taught us to detect the change introduced by TICs in organizations, as it goes far beyond what has been understood so far. Information and Communication Technologies are not only a tool for reducing costs and improving management information.
They are not just a support service for the organization’s core business. TICs are changing the nature of competition and of the economic sectors themselves.
