  15. Considerations prior to launch of Global Expatriate Management Programme at Siemens Expatriate Management Trends and Implications – trend towards standardisation and global service delivery models Market Trends • Increase focus on: Compliance, Controls, Coordination, Consistency, Competitiveness • Growth in expatriate population diversity (ie. varied types and nature of assignments) General • Standardisation of global service delivery • Continued growth in outsourcing and/or off-shoring administrative tasks • Consolidation of vendor services • Cost effective design and rigorous policy application Expatriate Service Delivery Management Key Implications for a global service delivery model: • An enhanced IT platform is essential to support the global processes • Transfer pricing/ other tax and social security considerations • Funding (cross cost charging) • Training and Change Management

  16. Global expatriate management (GEM) at Siemens – expatriate management change programme Global Expatriate Management (GEM) project: • New global organisational model implemented • Global/regional service management established • New global delegation policy/country guidelines implemented • Design and implementation of global expatriate tool – IHRIS • Global rollout of online delegate order system – DOS • Implementation of delegate travel tracker tool • Review and implementation of global delegation processes • Global vendors selected for taxation and allowance data provision

  22. Key Challenges faced during transition • Communication to and acceptance from key stakeholders • Speed and depth of change • Training of team + ongoing support • Interface management (other delegation partners, payroll) • Customers enhanced focus on cost/more for less • Changes at same time as enhanced focus on compliance internally • Increase in internal/external audits • Increase in legislative changes (e.g. PBS) • Transition to global providers

  23. Key Challenges faced during transition • Major restructure of Siemens organisation and HR organisation • Requirement to take on “residual HR activities” • Set up of Global Shared Services organisation • Cost reduction programme – FTE reduction • Transition of acquired businesses to Siemens process/policy • Non standard delegations/requests • Increase in M&A / Divestment activity within Siemens

  24. Global Expatriate Management (GEM 2) 1) International Business Traveller project 2) Centre of competence - set up 3) Optimisation of service delivery – regional hub set up

  25. Why bundle international delegations service delivery? • Enhance quality of service, reduce risk whilst lowering cost through implementing a regional hub structure • Ensure adherence to local laws and regulations in home and host country • Ensure higher level of process standardization • Reduce delegation administration cost through economies of scale • Improve service quality with dedicated international delegation team • Ensure implementation of Siemens regulations & processes

  26. Customer 1 Customer 2 Local Delegation centres Customer 3 Customer 4 Current versus future scope of service provision- example NWE Current model – delegation service delivery in each country Future model: one delegation hub SwedenHR UKHR DenmarkHR Norway HR NWE Hub Ireland HR FinlandHR Netherlands HR Poland HR • Service focus on country specific needs • smaller countries: no dedicated delegation FTE, but split FTE • No bundling, each country manages delegations separately • Service focus on international needs and standardization • Clear separation of country specifics to international services for delegations • Bundling delegation activities within hub

  27. 2.965 Different roles will be present in the Hub to secure a high service quality - Overview Hub Roles Hub Lead Business support Key Account coordinator 2 Policy expert Partner / customer trainer Delegation consultant Delegation manager • By country • Inbound • Outbound • Home/Host • CPD ICS /SOA Officer Project consultant3 Knowledge coordinator IT Key user Support functions Business Ad-ministrator Process manager 2 Process owner2 Business administration Manager Core Business Tax expert1 Social sec. expert1 Delegation Administration Manager Delegation Administra-tor Contract/ Vendor Mgmt Immigration expert1 Legal expert1 Business administration / Delegation administration Specialist Functions / Interfaces Service Delivery Management 1 General expertise and interface to local experts within countries 2Could be Delegation Manager 3Depending on the organizational asignment of the CoC (Center of Competence)

  28. Next steps for consideration • Implementation of regional hubs: Americas (North/Latin America) Europe, Middle East and Africa Asia, Australia • Implementation of Regional Governance + Regional Service Delivery Management - Delegation Services versus Delegation Advisory
