Outcomes and metrics focus on shorter cycle times, reduced costs, improved service delivery, increased transparency, stronger compliance, and better evidence for decision making. Indicators often include service levels, user satisfaction, system uptime, data quality, and return on investment.

Governance is essential for successful digitaliseringsprocessen, requiring clear roadmaps, stakeholder engagement, risk management, and alignment with legal and regulatory requirements, such as data protection and accessibility standards.
