Belcorp supports its back office activities through a multifunctional Shared Services Center located in Tocancipá, Colombia supporting 16 countries in Latin America.  In September 2013, Chazey was engaged to assess the performance of their existing Finance and Accounting processes and identify initiatives to help the organization become a world class Shared Services operation. Through the combination of workshops and benchmarking analysis, we identified opportunities to optimize and simplify their in scope processes as well as improving the use of their existing ERP system (SAP). We also made significant recommendations to build a comprehensive Service Management Framework as well as redesign their existing organizational structure.  We finally produced a detailed business case and action plan to implement the initiatives that will help Belcorp become a world class Shared Services organization.
