Shared Services
Shared service models offer consolidated business operations that are used by multiple
parts of the same organization. The goal of a shared service model is to allow each
business unit/department to focus its limited resources on activities that support
the UAF mission. Shared service models also support process improvements through use
of best practices, highly trained staff specialized in service delivery and backups
for critical functions.
