We’ve worked on a number of Working Capital Improvement and Management Projects over the last 15 years – one working capital management case study we can share involved Shared Service Centre Set Up for a Leading Global Communications Hardware Manufacturer.

Shared Service Centre

Company – Leading Global Communications Hardware Manufacturer

Project Description – Shared Service Centre Set Up

Working Capital Issues

  • The company were concerned that overdues would increase while migrating collection from countries to the new Shared Service Centers (SSCs).

JustOne Actions Undertaken

  • A short Discovery assignment was undertaken in Europe to identify potential benefits and key steps to deliver successful migration.
  • JustOne trained the SSC collectors on Leading Practice collections and credit management.
  • JustOne facilitate workshops in each country with the sales team and visiting key countries to ensure a smooth handover of responsibilities and local management buy in to the process.
  • Once the majority of European countries had passed their collection activities we undertook the same exercise in Beijing including country visits to China, Indonesia and Vietnam.
  • JustOne also worked with entities in Latin America to help overcome resistance to the migration of collection to Europe.
