Why this is important (and what it delivers)
Gaining control over your digital organization may seem technical, but it directly impacts your daily work. When you have a clear view of your systems, data, and processes, you can work smarter, make better decisions, and have more time for your substantive work.
You avoid working with fragmented systems or duplicate tools and gain better insight into how information flows through your organization. This not only helps improve processes but also enables you to make informed decisions about, for example, new systems or suppliers.
Specifically, it delivers:
- Less duplicate work and more efficient processes
- Better grant accountability
- More insight into audience and usage data
- Time savings for creators and staff
- Less dependence on suppliers
Additionally, it helps you reduce risks and work in a future-proof way. You gain better insight into where you are vulnerable, for example, in terms of privacy and cybersecurity, and where opportunities lie to become more sustainable or save costs.
- Insight into digital security risks and your digital crown jewels
- Better compliance with GDPR guidelines
- More conscious and sustainable IT choices
- Cost savings on IT and licenses
By mapping your application landscape, you lay a solid foundation for further digitalization and development of your organization.

What will you do?
In this interactive session, you will – alone or with a colleague – actively work on your own organization:
- Visually map your application landscape
- Gain insight into systems, data, and interconnections
- Discover where there is overlap, inefficiency, or risk
- Formulate improvement points based on 4 targeted questions
- Determine concrete next steps
- Work with a practical, user-friendly method specifically developed for the cultural sector. No technical knowledge required.

- Reviews your application landscape with you
- Helps prioritize improvement points
- Provides advice on next steps and strategy
- Thinks along about collaboration with suppliers
- Supports in choosing or improving systems
- This helps you directly translate your insights into a concrete and achievable action plan.
