Anthology from the year 2018 in the subject Business economics – Business Management, Corporate Governance, Baden-Wuerttemberg Cooperative State University (DHBW), language: English, abstract: Shared Service Centers have become a common instrument for providing internal services to a range of business units from a central location. By choosing a suitable international location, companies can not only achieve synergies from centralization, process and quality improvements, but also location economies. Southeast Asia hosts one of the largest numbers of Shared Service Centers in the world and Malaysia and Singapore are seen as prime locations. This volume presents insights from a study tour to Malaysia and Singapore that identified good practices for managing Shared Service Centers from six major corporations. Key aspects of managing Shared Service Centers are addressed and complemented by recent trends such as robotic process automation (RPA) and the shift to more knowledge-intensive services in Global Business Services (GBS) organizations.
