3SSC Benchmark Survey | Hungary, 2016
„The 2016 figures verified the expecta-
tions that shared services are becoming
ever more a crucial sector for the Hunga-
rian economy and we expect the same
trend for the future.“
Attila
Suhajda
President
This is the fourth annual SSC Benchmark Survey of Hungary, carried out by the Hungarian Service
and Outsourcing Association (HOA) to provide reliable, comparable industry data to its members and
the investors considering entering the market.
The survey targeted all active captive service centers and outsourcing service providers in Hungary
irrespective of their HOA membership. Besides the market data the survey serves as a benchmarking
tool for the participants, allowing them to see their own results compared to other survey participants.
As HOA conducted the survey for the fourth year in a row, comparison data of the 2013, 2014 and 2015
results are also published in this report.
4 SSC Benchmark Survey | Hungary, 2016
41 major Hungarian Shared Service Centers and Outsourcing companies have completed the survey
employing more than 26.000 people. HOA has been able to increase the coverage of the survey by
84% over the past 4 years.

The growing number of survey participants and the accompanying rising employee coverage make
the survey data more representative of the Hungarian market as a whole and reduces the number of
assumptions required. However, as the structure of participants has changed over the years, some
yearly comparisons should be used with caution.

In terms of geographic reach, 61% of the participants service some processes globally, 85% Europe,
37% Middle East and 41% North America, more than 50% service Asia and Africa and despite the time
difference even Australia is being serviced by 12% of the participants. The results are very similar to
2015, thus the same observation can be made than last year: the Hungarian SSC market still can be
considered as a global service location and not only as a Europe time-zone center.

8 SSC Benchmark Survey | Hungary, 2016
One of the consequences of the regional setup is the introduction
of shifts. Hungary’s location is favorable considering that the
Americas region and Asia can be reached during Central-
European regular working hours, thus in 2016 60% of firms decided
to use regular working hours only. The use of shifts is influenced
by the types of services provided; for example, customer service
& IT support requires greater flexibility via service hours versus
standard administrative functions such as invoice processing or
general accounting transactions.
SERVICE PORTFOLIO
In 2016, 74% of SSCs provide services in the area of Finance and Controlling, IT and Customer Service.
This gives a good indication of the professional skill requirements of this sector; finance and business
administration and IT are still the key skills required, with the requirements shifting towards IT skills.
Considering the geographical reach and the services provided by the service centers, along with
professional skills, language capabilities are crucial to maintain stable operations in Hungary and the
ability to host increasing numbers of centers in Hungary.

LANGUAGES SUPPORTED
In 2016, more than 20 languages are supported by Hungarian services centers. The most commonly
supported languages in order of frequency are: English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch,
Russian and Portuguese. As the survey also shows, HOA is emphasizing again the focus on language
education in all levels of the education programs. This is vital to maintain the SSC industry in Hungary.
English is still a ‘must’ in all service centers; German is still the second most important language as in
2016. French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch and Portuguese are still in top 10, however Russian and Swedish
increased, with Polish and Czech dropping out of the top 10.

LEGAL AND FINANCIAL
MODEL
In terms of the legal form of the
SSCs in Hungary, there have
been some changes compared
to 2015. Companies still prefer
to establish a separate legal
entity for their shared service
operationswith 65% responding
that their SSC operates in a
separate legal entity, whilst 35%
of companies incorporate the
SSC together with their other
operations.

The growth potential of the industry has been collected in the
survey. 76% of the participants plan to expand their operations (31
firms); none of the participants are planning any reduction. These
trends are similar to 2015. The aggregate increase planned by the
participants is 1,600 people, arising from 20 firms’ responses (6
firms responded with 0% increase, and 5 firms did not answer this
question).
The expansion is planned to come primarily from providing higher
value-added services (45% of participants).

COMPETITIVENESS FACTORS
Country advantages and competitiveness factors have also been examined in the survey.
The participants identified four major risks, ranked in the following order: labor availability, language
capability, skill availability, and country stability. Labor related concerns increased compared to 2015 with
76% of participants seeing labor as a clear issue (this was 57% in 2014 and 72% in 2015) and 61% consider
language as a threat (this was 48% in 2014 and 69% in 2015). 32% of the participants mention country risk
among the biggest threats to the industryand this is a marked increaseversus 2015 (24%). Furthermore, the
country risk factor has seen the biggest increase in the 2016 threat statistics. Skillavailability is identified as
a threat in more than 50% of the participating firms - the same proportion of responses as per 2015.

compared to the 24% reported in 2015. EKD and GOP funds utilization decreased as well, but some
additional elements such as the training subsidy and corporate tax subsidy arose as a separate element.

EXPENDITURE AT HUNGARIAN SUPPLIERS
In terms of spending, 49% of respondents (17 firms) spend more than 200 million HUF per year. By
estimating average spend in all categories, then the responding firms spend more than 4 billion HUF
yearly on Hungarian suppliers.

This is supported by the fact that SSCs are able to make procurement decision either with full
responsibility or jointly with the parent organization.
Thus the conclusion may be drawn that local suppliers and local branches of international firms have
good opportunities to become suppliers to shared service centers in Hungary.

RECRUITMENT LEAD-TIME
The average recruitment lead-time is 51 calendar days, which increased from 46 days in 2015.
The average recruitment lead-time is much
lower in the large-sized SSCs (42 days), whilst
the lead-time is significantly higher than average
in the smaller centers. Larger organizations have
more expert HR and recruitments services,
marketing capabilities and university relations,
thus more tools to attract applicants to the
center. Recruitment lead-times are costly, thus
organizations would be well advised to build up
expert recruitment services and manage brand
awareness.
EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT
83% of participants utilize engagement surveys
in their people processes. The average score of

The voluntary attrition rate is 16% in 2016 amongst the participating companies, and this is similar to
data from 2014 and 2015, although the trend is clearly increasing. The attrition rate increased to 17%
in the 1000+ FTE category. The lowest attrition rates are still found in the small size shared service
centers. (13%).

Differences could be identified in 2015 when analyzing the attrition rates from the SSC type
perspective. In outsourcing firms vthe average attrition rate was 20%, while in captive centers 14%.
These differences cannot be observed in 2016 with the attrition rate similar in outsourcing and captive
centers.
EMPLOYEE CHARACTERISTICS
We have analyzed theworkforce from manyperspectives. Language skills have been alreadycovered
in previous sections of the survey. As the skilled and language speaking workforce is getting more
and more difficult to recruit, alternative channels are now being examined by centers. Recruiting from
abroad was always an option; the foreign citizen ratio is on average 9% in service centers, unchanged
from 2015. Due to the labor availability challenges experienced on the market, the trend is to recruit
more employees without university degree. The ratio of employees not holding university degree
increased from 21% to 26%. This shows as well the importance of language and service culture training
to be introduced to intermediate education levels.

This trend is supported by the fact that 79% of participants provide education support to employees,
thus employers are readyto take overpart of the education in orderto secure employee development.
Further to the education support, the SSCs also invest in internal training programs and on average
2,5 training days are provided monthly to employees, in part utilizing e-learning platforms in 85% of
participating firms.

EMPLOYER BRANDING
95% of participating companies are using some kind of branding programs to support motivation and
aiming to be seen as socially responsible employers. The following tools are among those being used;
sport, company events, language courses, talent programs, CSR, health and safety, environmental
initiatives, community buildings and cultural activities. Most of the employers (95%) provide some
training programs, nearly 63% are working on structured career routes and 42% of the employers
provide maternity programs.

offering home working up to 71% from 62%. More than 80% of the participating companies utilize
flexible working hours. Companies have commented that utilizing home working and part-time
work in turn assist them in office space optimization. Employment of parents with young children or

UNIVERSITY RELATIONS
As the recruitment of the skilled and language speaking workforce is time consuming (on average 51
days), and due to the fact that more and more service centers are entering the market and existing
are centers expanding, companies start the actual recruitment process already at universities by
utilizing numerous type of relationships and channels. 50% of participants have active university
relations, the most typical channels are to have dedicated lectures, running graduate or specified
training programs, having company open days, sponsorships or laboratory programs with selected
universities.

Technology
Gaining efficiency from shared services is influenced by the
optimization of the underlying technology. To be able to realize
SSC benefits, 84% of organizations participating in the survey
transformed their technology backbone prior to or at the same
time as they moved processes into a shared service center (similar
to 2015: 81%).
Administrative processes are technology-dependent and despite
the fact that a significant proportion of the benefits that can be
gained from process centralization arises from using integrated
ERP solutions, 50% of participants companies still do not use
one single ERP instance in all countries. This is however a clear
decrease compared to 2014, where 65% of the participants were
not using one ERP instance.
24% (36% in 2015) of the participants are using Oracle and 71% SAP (same as in 2015), with other
systems such as JD Edwards, CODA and Navision being used in other companies.

  • 3. 3SSC Benchmark Survey | Hungary, 2016 „The 2016 figures verified the expecta- tions that shared services are becoming ever more a crucial sector for the Hunga- rian economy and we expect the same trend for the future.“ Attila Suhajda President This is the fourth annual SSC Benchmark Survey of Hungary, carried out by the Hungarian Service and Outsourcing Association (HOA) to provide reliable, comparable industry data to its members and the investors considering entering the market. The survey targeted all active captive service centers and outsourcing service providers in Hungary irrespective of their HOA membership. Besides the market data the survey serves as a benchmarking tool for the participants, allowing them to see their own results compared to other survey participants. As HOA conducted the survey for the fourth year in a row, comparison data of the 2013, 2014 and 2015 results are also published in this report.
  • 4. 4 SSC Benchmark Survey | Hungary, 2016 41 major Hungarian Shared Service Centers and Outsourcing companies have completed the survey employing more than 26.000 people. HOA has been able to increase the coverage of the survey by 84% over the past 4 years. About the Participants SURVEY PARTICIPANTS BY INDUSTRY In 2016, eight industries were represented out of which Technology & Telecommunications, Industrial & Consumer goods, Consumer Services and Business and Professional Services comprised the largest industrial sectors (74%). 2016 Industrial Segmentation of Participating Companies (% of responses) Technology & Telecom Industrial &Consumer Goods Consumer Services (incl. Media…) Bussiness and Professional Services… Bussiness and Professional Services… Energy, Utilities and Basic Materials Other (please specify) Chemistry Banking, Insurrance, Financial… 5 5 7 10 15 15 17 27 The growing number of survey participants and the accompanying rising employee coverage make the survey data more representative of the Hungarian market as a whole and reduces the number of assumptions required. However, as the structure of participants has changed over the years, some yearly comparisons should be used with caution.

  • 7. 7SSC Benchmark Survey | Hungary, 2016 Supported Customers, Regions and Services CUSTOMER PORTFOLIO More than 70% of the companies participating are captive service centers, thus serving only internal customers - this is 10% higher than in 2015. In 98% of the participating firms there are Service Level Agreements in place to manage the performance of the SSC deliverables. Annual Changes in Mix of Captive vs Outsourced Service Provision (% of responses) …2016? (41 firms) …2015? (29 firms) …2014? (25 firms) …2013?

  • 8. 8 SSC Benchmark Survey | Hungary, 2016 One of the consequences of the regional setup is the introduction of shifts. Hungary’s location is favorable considering that the Americas region and Asia can be reached during Central- European regular working hours, thus in 2016 60% of firms decided to use regular working hours only. The use of shifts is influenced by the types of services provided; for example, customer service & IT support requires greater flexibility via service hours versus standard administrative functions such as invoice processing or general accounting transactions. SERVICE PORTFOLIO In 2016, 74% of SSCs provide services in the area of Finance and Controlling, IT and Customer Service. This gives a good indication of the professional skill requirements of this sector; finance and business administration and IT are still the key skills required, with the requirements shifting towards IT skills. Considering the geographical reach and the services provided by the service centers, along with professional skills, language capabilities are crucial to maintain stable operations in Hungary and the ability to host increasing numbers of centers in Hungary.

The most commonly supported languages in order of frequency are: English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, Russian and Portuguese. As the survey also shows, HOA is emphasizing again the focus on language education in all levels of the education programs. This is vital to maintain the SSC industry in Hungary. English is still a ‘must’ in all service centers; German is still the second most important language as in 2016. French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch and Portuguese are still in top 10, however Russian and Swedish increased, with Polish and Czech dropping out of the top 10.

  • 11. 11SSC Benchmark Survey | Hungary, 2016 COMPETITIVENESS FACTORS Country advantages and competitiveness factors have also been examined in the survey. The participants identified four major risks, ranked in the following order: labor availability, language capability, skill availability, and country stability. Labor related concerns increased compared to 2015 with 76% of participants seeing labor as a clear issue (this was 57% in 2014 and 72% in 2015) and 61% consider language as a threat (this was 48% in 2014 and 69% in 2015). 32% of the participants mention country risk among the biggest threats to the industryand this is a marked increaseversus 2015 (24%).

  • 13. 13SSC Benchmark Survey | Hungary, 2016 EXPENDITURE AT HUNGARIAN SUPPLIERS In terms of spending, 49% of respondents (17 firms) spend more than 200 million HUF per year. By estimating average spend in all categories, then the responding firms spend more than 4 billion HUF yearly on Hungarian suppliers. Spend Ratio on Hungarian Suppliers By Survey Participant Companies (% of responses) Above 200M HUF 10-50M HUF 50-100M HUF 100-200M HUF Below 10M HUF 49 29 17 3 3 This is supported by the fact that SSCs are able to make procurement decision either with full responsibility or jointly with the parent organization. Thus the conclusion may be drawn that local suppliers and local branches of international firms have good opportunities to become suppliers to shared service centers in Hungary.

The average recruitment lead-time is much lower in the large-sized SSCs (42 days), whilst the lead-time is significantly higher than average in the smaller centers. Larger organizations have more expert HR and recruitments services, marketing capabilities and university relations, thus more tools to attract applicants to the center. Recruitment lead-times are costly, thus organizations would be well advised to build up expert recruitment services and manage brand awareness. EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT 83% of participants utilize engagement surveys in their people processes. The average score of 68% is similar to scores from 2014 and 2015 (both at 69%).

  • 15. 15SSC Benchmark Survey | Hungary, 2016 ATTRITION RATE The voluntary attrition rate is 16% in 2016 amongst the participating companies, and this is similar to data from 2014 and 2015, although the trend is clearly increasing. The attrition rate increased to 17% in the 1000+ FTE category. The lowest attrition rates are still found in the small size shared service centers. (13%).

In outsourcing firms vthe average attrition rate was 20%, while in captive centers 14%. These differences cannot be observed in 2016 with the attrition rate similar in outsourcing and captive centers. EMPLOYEE CHARACTERISTICS We have analyzed theworkforce from manyperspectives. Language skills have been alreadycovered in previous sections of the survey. As the skilled and language speaking workforce is getting more and more difficult to recruit, alternative channels are now being examined by centers. Recruiting from abroad was always an option; the foreign citizen ratio is on average 9% in service centers, unchanged from 2015. Due to the labor availability challenges experienced on the market, the trend is to recruit more employees without university degree. The ratio of employees not holding university degree increased from 21% to 26%. This shows as well the importance of language and service culture training to be introduced to intermediate education levels. Education & Foreign Citizen Analysis of Participating Companies' SSCs (% of responses) 20152016 What is the ratio of employees not holding an university degree? What is the ratio of foreign employees? 26 21 9 10 This trend is supported by the fact that 79% of participants provide education support to employees, thus employers are readyto take overpart of the education in orderto secure employee development. Further to the education support, the SSCs also invest in internal training programs and on average 2,5 training days are provided monthly to employees, in part utilizing e-learning platforms in 85% of participating firms.

  • 18. 18 SSC Benchmark Survey | Hungary, 2016 Technology Gaining efficiency from shared services is influenced by the optimization of the underlying technology. To be able to realize SSC benefits, 84% of organizations participating in the survey transformed their technology backbone prior to or at the same time as they moved processes into a shared service center (similar to 2015: 81%). Administrative processes are technology-dependent and despite the fact that a significant proportion of the benefits that can be gained from process centralization arises from using integrated ERP solutions, 50% of participants companies still do not use one single ERP instance in all countries. This is however a clear decrease compared to 2014, where 65% of the participants were not using one ERP instance. 24% (36% in 2015) of the participants are using Oracle and 71% SAP (same as in 2015), with other systems such as JD Edwards, CODA and Navision being used in other companies.
