Abstract

The aim of this dissertation is to conduct an in-depth examination aimed at understanding the complexities involved in standardizing operations within a global organisation. The primary objective is to identify and analyze the critical factors, challenges, and opportunities associated with achieving operational consistency in functional departments. This study will focus specifically on a global organisation concentrating on the Ireland business operations. Through this research, the aim is to develop actionable strategies and best practices that can facilitate the effective standarisation of processes, procedures, and practices, ultimately enhancing efficiency, coordination, and performance within the organisation's global framework. The outcomes can be rolled out to other geophraphical regions and departments.

The finding of this project suggests that global organisations focus on strategies relating to IT, communication, feedback, training, development, organisational culture and leadership traits. Another suggestion for organisations which was evident during the findings is adopting a global IT system for each region and branch. Understanding employee needs and adopting the strategies which are included in this study will help an organisation address the challenges of maintaining a cohesive globalized approach across a diverse international organisation and ensure consistency in its global standarisation.
