It has become an integral part of everyday business. In many organizations, the primary responsibility for digital transformation lies with the IT department, which is problematic given the current skills shortage and the large number of digitalization initiatives: many projects have to be postponed or extended because the IT department does not have sufficient capacity. Ultimately, this threatens the success and future of the business.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/section>\n\n\t\n\n\t<section class=\"snk-section snk-section_slimOnSingle snk-section_noTop\">\n\t\t<div class=\"container container-sm\">\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"row snk-textColumns\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col col-12 snk-textColumn\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"snk-textBlock snk-textBlock_slim\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4>Citizen Development \u2013 Sharing the Burden of Digital Transformation<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span class=\"TextRun SCXW46884304 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"auto\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW46884304 BCX0\">Citizen Development can reduce the <\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW46884304 BCX0\">workload<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW46884304 BCX0\"> on IT, improve the quality of business software, and increase user adoption.

In addition to ready-made individual modules and widgets, an integrated solution platform also contains useful functional elements that can be easily modified and extended. These &#8220;functional building blocks&#8221; make it easy to develop solutions for more complex challenges.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559685&quot;:708}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Common Database<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559685&quot;:708}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The software platform should also provide a central database, a true <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cplace.com\/en\/product\/why-cplace\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Single Source of Truth.<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> It is the common foundation for all other solutions developed on top of it.
