Q&A with EASA: Excel Spreadsheets meet Digital Transformation

SourceForge recently caught up with Dr. Sebastian Dewhurst, Director of Business Development at EASA, to talk about the obstacles encountered by companies when their latest digital transformation initiative comes face to face with business processes that are underpinned by spreadsheets. Dewhurst also offers some advice to help enterprises prevent and reduce the risk of “Excel chaos”, without giving up the valuable intellectual property that companies have embedded in spreadsheets over the years. Finally, we consider how companies can leverage the ubiquitous knowledge of Excel to fast-track their digital transformation efforts.
