“…Other CEE nations have seen a similar evolution. Gawlowski & Modrzynski (2018) primarily focused on sharing their experiences in setting up and running SSCs in the biggest local governments in Poland.…”

Shared services centers (SSC) are widely used by multinational corporations as a part of their business strategies. The attention of researchers in international business has increased along with the growth of SSCs and this topic is currently being studied by a number of authors. In this article we focused on the Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) in order to construct a structured evaluation of the extremely dispersed literature on SSCs in this region. A meta-analysis of the relevant literature sources has been the fundamental technique employed in this paper based on the analysis of the WoS, Science Direct, Taylor & Francis, and Emerald Insights databases. The results show that Poland is the most researched country, with Central Europe being studied more thoroughly than Eastern Europe. Relevant literature study shows that the researchers systematically investigated the motivations of foreign companies to create SSCs in CEE and focused frequently on human resources management part of their activities. They use a variety of techniques in their articles, including both qualitative and quantitative techniques. Based on this study, the authors of this paper formulate the conclusions and outline possible future prospects of the research of this phenomenon.

“…The case of the public sector proves that the implementation of organizational changes has another, very important advantage-the security of the processes carried out and the expenditure of public funds. The conducted research, both in cooperation with the Union of Polish Metropolises (UMP), which brings together the largest cities in Poland, and the Union of Polish Poviats (ZPP), which brings together almost all poviats in Poland, have shown that it is precisely the goals of ensuring the safety and control (i.e., management effectiveness, harmonization, risk reduction, innovation tools) that were crucial for making decisions on introducing organizational changes and creating SSCs in local governments [52] (Figure 3).…”

Blockchain technology is currently one of the trends considered to have a tremendous future ahead. It ensures data security, data sharing protection and automation development—elements that are of colossal importance in the era of cloud solutions, big data and Internet of Things (IoT) reality. Additionally, blockchain technology allows one to create new programmable ecosystems on an unprecedented scale. The implementation of blockchain technology leads not only to improving the flow of documents and data storage, as is the case with the creation of shared service centers (SSCs), but—as this paper shows—allows one to reduce the carbon footprint when servicing SSCs at a considerably higher organizational level at the same time. The example of an SSC in Elbląg, Poland, proves that cloud solutions enabling electronic documents flow and data storage combined with blockchain technology are tools essential for further SSCs development. Furthermore, such tools allow us not only to obtain economic effects (i.e., cost reduction), but also to achieve positive ecological effects (i.e., carbon footprint reduction).
