Study goals
Measure the Digital Transformation Maturity level of a company after investments in the development of systems for automating the operation of its sanitary landfills.
Relevance / originality
This technical report is based on the application of the Digital Maturity Model (DMM), formulated by Berghaus & Back (2016), with the aim of demonstrating that investment in technology does not necessarily mean that a company has high levels of digital maturity.
Methodology / approach
The study employed a multi-methodological approach, combining three main techniques: bibliographic research, interviews, and the completion of a digital transformation maturity mapping form. This approach allowed for data triangulation, which aided in the analysis of the studied topic.
Main results
The company achieved level two of maturity only in the information technology dimension, demonstrating that it has a robust technological structure. To advance, it needs to focus on other pillars such as organizational culture, investing in a deeper transformation of its processes.
Theoretical / methodological contributions
For the literature, the study contributes to the body of knowledge on digital transformation in the waste management sector, a field still little explored in academic literature.
Social / management contributions
The study demonstrates that investments in information technology can bring tangible results to the digital transformation process, but that high maturity is only achieved when attitudes, processes, company culture, and the mindset of its employees are changed.
