Hypothesis:

The purpose of developing this study is to fully grasp the impact of work digitalization on businesses and how digitalization can help these businesses in a positive way. This study will also allow us to look further into the impact of digitization and the perceptions that are often carried alongside it.

Proposal Outline:

Introduction

• Brief background digitalization becoming more relevant with the COVID-19 pandemic
• Digitalization is not new : (Tarpey, 2020).).
• Businesses need change : (Rik Kirkland ,

Research study based off (Literature Review)

• Research study (Faizurrohmu,Baga,Jahros,2021)
• Digitalization’s impact on productivity  (Kamal 2020)
• Perceptions of digitalization ((Kerpedzhiev, König, Roöelinger, Rosemann, 2020))

• Possible negative side of virtualization (Molotkova, Khazanova, and Ivanova 2019)

Methodology

• There will be four different businesses in total that will be thoroughly used in this study
• These four businesses will be split into two groups: the control group and the experimental group
• . Two of the four groups will be the experimental group which will have software and hardware installed to allow them to be introduced into digitalization
• They will also have a financial grant, such as the Dell Technologies Grants Support Program (Dell Technologies, n.d.), that will allow them to be free from financial burden in order to reach the peak success of  work digitalization
• The independent variable in this study will be the use of digitalization and the dependent variable will be the effect that it will have on the businesses in the study
• Conclude underlying causes that could be slowing down the big networks

Discussion

• There were two different groups in order to compare and contrast the differences that digitalization could offer
• Faults of this study
  • Lots of variation
  • Workers having different workloads
