Multifunction Shared Services

Multi-functional shared services involve functions sharing a management team, technologies, and service delivery locations. They typically fall under the responsibility of a manager with strong ties to the functions for the design of processes, service scope, and service standards.

Multi-functional shared services Reduce Costs

The transition from corporate shared services to a multi-functional approach can reduce costs. Cost reduction is achieved by consolidating management roles and, or locations. A common area of cost reduction is in service delivery, thanks to an increase in efficiency and consequent reduction of personnel. The cascade effect propagates throughout the organization with a contraction in demand for tools and assets such as office space and telecommunications, with the cost managed between the functions using them.
