Financial Shared Services Model: Application and Advantages for Electric Power Enterprises

The application of a new management model, such as financial shared services, to the production and operation of electric power enterprises can effectively improve the original redundant organization of electric power enterprises. It can also change the traditional management model of electric power enterprises, which is too old, and constantly update the management philosophy of enterprises. This provides a professional service management model for electric power enterprises from a zero-market perspective and creates favorable conditions for all departments to quickly improve the efficiency of the work.

In the course of its operation, the organizational structure is constantly optimized and financial standards are standardized systematically. This allows for a continuous improvement in work efficiency, a gradual reduction of production and operating costs, and a continuous increase in the added value of financial management.

Against the backdrop of the rapid development of network information technology and globalization, many enterprises in China are actively exploring and thoroughly studying the financial shared services model, trying to make the financial shared services model more applicable to their own enterprises. An overview of the application status of financial shared service centers at home and abroad, and a comparison of them, reveals that the financial shared services model has the following characteristics:

First, it can provide accounting services. The financial shared service center is essentially an independent entity that can provide internal accounting services and receive remuneration for its services. On this basis, it competes with external suppliers by operating in the market in a corresponding way. Secondly, it can provide back-office support services. It relies on information technology and focuses on processing as its core function.
