Like most of its peer agencies around the nation, the Pennsylvania Office of the Budget is facing unprecedented administrative challenges. Revenue is uncertain. Expectations are rising. And the challenges of auditing, accounting, invoicing, contract review, and human resources across six offices is not getting any easier. To meet this challenge, Pennsylvania has turned to Shared Services.

Shared Services promises great benefits to government: operational savings, better quality of service, and greater stability are just a few examples. But what exactly is Share Services, and how can it best be applied in government? Who is working on it? What can be learned from Pennsylvania’s early ventures into the area?
