Award Nomination

GBS Mandate Expansion Award

Recognizing a GBS organization that has successfully expanded its mandate within the global enterprise by taking ownership of additional functions, higher-value activities, new geographies, or strategic responsibilities. The award celebrates GBS centres that have earned greater trust from corporate headquarters and demonstrated measurable business value through expanded capabilities, operational excellence, and strategic impact.

What new responsibilities, functions, geographies, or business processes have been added?
Please highlight any movement beyond traditional transactional services into areas such as analytics, finance transformation, procurement strategy, technology, R&D, or global process ownership.
Outline any measurable increases in value-added activities; explain new high-value functions or responsibilities introduced; and other productivity and efficiency improvements.
Why did corporate headquarters choose your GBS organization to assume these additional responsibilities?
Provide measurable results, such as cost savings, productivity improvements, faster decision-making, enhanced service quality, working-capital improvements, or increased business agility.
