Increase cost efficiency and strengthen competitiveness

High-performing companies outside the automotive sector leverage Global Business Services (GBS) to create real added value. By providing integrated, cross-functional, and cross-country end-to-end business services, companies can achieve cost savings up to 40-45% – while also making GBS a critical factor for competitiveness.

Compared to other industries, the automotive industry has significant room for improvement in this area. Current GBS structures are typically regionalized and focus primarily on financial, IT, and HR-related services. In contrast, leading GBS models in industries such as life sciences or consumer goods offer integrated, customer-oriented services across all functions.

The true value of GBS lies in breaking down functional “silo structures” within corporate organizations, both culturally and technologically. Sharing data across the entire company not only improves collaboration between business units but also enables faster responses to market shifts – such as evolving customer demands through new solutions and end-to-end services.

With EFESO, companies create best-in-class GBS solutions that deliver the right mix of services in the right formats – from functional improvement to fully integrated optimization.
