Ask a Shared Services leader their philosophy on charge-out methodology and you are likely to hear diverse opinions ranging from \u201ccharge-outs don\u2019t add value, so why bother<\/em>\u201d to \u201ccharge-outs drive value-creating behavior \u2013 the more detail the better<\/em>\u201d and everything in-between.<\/p>\n

Recently, a Peeriosity member performed custom research using iPolling1<\/sup> functionality to request feedback from peers with experience in charge-out methodologies. They were interested in the method currently used for core services (defined as services provided to the vast majority of their internal customers), as well as for incremental services (defined as services provided in addition to core services, but limited to a single business unit or operation).<\/p>\n
