The project manager should first assess the current state process to understand the existing problems, needs, and opportunities for improvement. This will help to define the scope of the digitization project, which is the sum of the products, services, and results to be delivered by the project. Digitizing the current state process exactly as defined, redefining the current state process to scope the supporting software, or developing the software that will support the current state process are all actions that should be done after defining the project scope, not before.
