Challenges

Regus implemented a Shared Services Center (i.e. SSC) in Prague before his migration to Manila, Philippines, to cover Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable and General Ledger transactions for most of their subsidiaries abroad. Regus was looking for a global partner to take care of all “government facing operations“ with a capability to implement coordination to ensure a perfect link with the SCC and regional Local Services Centers (i.e. LSC).​
