Apr 17, 2012

MEXICO CITY, April 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- ManpowerGroup (NYSE: MAN) Solutions' Managed Service Provider (MSP), TAPFIN, the world's largest vendor-neutral and hybrid MSP, today announced the opening of the first Shared Service Center (SSC) for Mexico and Central America (MeCA) headquartered in Mexico City, enhancing TAPFIN's ability to provide industry-leading services regionally with consistently high quality and exceptional value.

"Our clients tell us they want to expand their MSP programs across all of their corporate locations and establishing regional shared service centers is a critical step in our ability to service our global MSP clients," said Kip Wright, Vice President and General Manager of ManpowerGroup Solutions TAPFIN. "This structure enables TAPFIN to be quick to scale and support clients as they bring Latin American countries into their contingent workforce management programs."

The MeCA Shared Service Center is capable of providing support across the entire spectrum of MSP Services. This support will help deliver TAPFIN programs in countries with limited MSP expertise, or where clients' managed spend is relatively small. TAPFIN is revolutionizing the way in which organizations fulfil and manage contingent workforces, working with leading organizations to develop, deploy and enable an integrated approach to analyzing and managing external talent on a global basis.

As part of TAPFIN's evolution, it is expected that SSCs will be made available in all world regions over the course of 2012. Prioritization of SSC rollout to regions will be driven by TAPFIN's strategic global growth plans and the opportunity to immediately provide efficiencies to current programs. 

"Our research and conversation with clients indicate that MSP growth in the next three to five years will come largely from emerging markets," said Dana Shaw, Vice President of the MSP Center of Excellence. "The opening of the Shared Service Center provides our clients with more efficient program delivery, as MSP is largely unexplored in the region."

The MeCA Shared Service Center in Mexico City is a prime example of global model with close connections to local requirements, delivered in a consistent framework to exceed client expectations.

"This is an excellent opportunity not only globally, but within this region, as we expand our innovative workforce solutions to anticipate our clients' needs," said Monica Flores, ManpowerGroup MeCA Managing Director. "This TAPFIN service center will allow us to lead the market in high quality delivery in this burgeoning trend of workforce management." Flores is also leading ManpowerGroup Mexico's delegation at the World Economic Forum on Latin America in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico this week to discuss critical regional employment issues. 

TAPFIN's success in designing and managing workforce management models is founded on a consultative approach and a one-size-fits-one methodology. TAPFIN understands the complexity and uniqueness of each client, starting with a foundation based on its vast experience which it then tailors to meet specific requirements.
