2. Exclusive Industry Content
Less capital expenditure, increased cash flow restrictions
and a heavy emphasis on short-term business objectives....
It’s a familliar sounding story.
The Australian market place may not have escaped the effects of the Global
Financial Crisis, yet the message from the Shared Services industry “Down
Contents: Under” is loud and clear: 2011 is most definitely Shared Services’ time to shine.
I caught up with a few of the esteemed practitioners contributing to the SSO
Week agenda in Melbourne to find out...

2011 Agenda 5-6
How have developments in the Australian market affected SSO
Your 3 Day 2011 activity over the last 12 months?
Conference Agenda Bessi: The extreme levels of uncertainty that we’ve experienced over the past two
at-a-glance 7-10 years -- and the resulting conservatism -- have affected shared services through cash
flow restrictions, pressures to reduce discretionary costs, a stringent focus on overhead
functions, and an emphasis on achieving short term objectives rather than building
Sponsors, Exhibitors longer term relationships or developing sustainable activities. It has been a tough time
for all organisations, but the crisis has provided an opportunity for mature shared services
& Event Partners 11 and outsourced service providers to shine. Given the financial pressures placed on our
organisation, we’ve undertaken opportunity analysis with our outsourced business process
providers, renegotiated our service level agreements and commercials, and engaged in
further outsourcing and offshoring for back office functions.
Morris-Smith: One of the things that I have noticed among the not-for-profit sector is an
increased awareness of the lack of sufficient scale or expertise to access best-practice models
and research. As a result, there’s an emerging conversation about the possibility of perhaps
either collaborating to create a captive service provider of our own or outsourcing. Generally,
the level of shared services activity in the not-for-profit sector is much less mature – Mission
Australia is one of the few to have sufficient scale, which makes a more mature shared
services model possible.
www.ssonetwork.com/linkedin/apac Davood: The Global Financial Crisis has cut the capital expenditure available to SSOs. As a
result, decreased capital expenditure has increased the stress on SSOs as they are forced to
be reactive.
Miller: Across the Australian marketplace, the Global Financial Crisis appears to have
encouraged companies to look more closely at opportunities to gain efficiency through
transferring activities to shared services centres. At BP Elite, we have seen increased interest
from other corporates trying to understand what we do and how we deliver results, as they
www.ssonetwork.com/facebook start down their own shared services journey.
What are your predictions for the Australian marketplace over the
next year?
Bessi: The Australian market is increasingly being affected by the mega-trends of
exponential IT developments, increased focus on environmentally sustainable practices and
http://twitter.com/ssonetwork products, changing work force demographics, and significant cost pressures. In the coming
year, my predictions are for varying levels of uncertainty in our two-speed economy, with
organisations moving from a “we have gotten through the Global Financial Crisis” mindset
to one of “we are now going through even more turbulent and volatile times.”
