Accelerate business success with Company in a Box

As countries in the Middle East advance their national transformation programmes, the focus is on driving economic diversification and fostering innovation. The opportunities are immense, and so are the challenges: in an era of rapid technological change, organisations must adapt and scale with efficiency and speed.

Ensuring compliance with accounting standards and regulatory requirements, which directly impact reputation, obtaining accurate data-driven insights to inform decisions and moving away from just service delivery to outcome management while benchmarking performance to stay competitive are critical. Additionally, broken processes and inefficiencies hinder progress, underscoring the need for streamlined operations to maintain a leading edge in the market.

Navigating this complexity and seizing opportunities to stay competitive requires embedding best practices across business operations. As part of our Business Outcome Managed Services, we offer corporate support to empower organisations to accelerate growth through a strategic approach to core functions. Our team focuses on process standardisation and the implementation of best practices across key functions, such as finance, procurement, tax, legal, and human capital. By streamlining these functions, we reduce inefficiencies, improve accuracy, and minimise manual workloads, driving greater operational efficiency and resilience.

Recognising that these interconnected challenges require comprehensive solutions, we have developed ‘Company in a Box’ - a business process platform and toolkit that leverages PwC’s cross-functional expertise and offers a full spectrum of business process support through our technology solution.

Right people, right processes, right technology

The Company in a Box solution is powered through PwC’s technology alliance partners, including SAP, Microsoft, Oracle and Workday.

Inside the box is an integrated, plug-and-play ERP platform designed to help organisations set up quickly, accelerate operational efficiency, and unlock significant cost savings. A standard configuration is easily customisable and fully compliant with local accounting standards, the Company in a Box is designed to support all corporate functions seamlessly.

Beyond outsourcing: Delivering accountability and high-impact results

With PwC Middle East’s corporate support managed services, companies can establish core functions, such as finance, HR, and procurement or upgrade their ERP systems in as little as six months. Our Company in a Box solution simplifies the operational setup, optimises mission-critical ERP processes in a cost-effective manner and drives quicker, high-impact results for businesses.

The unifying factor is results-oriented data processes. Our team unlocks the potential of data, by transforming finance data into actionable insights for better forecasting, interpreting HR metrics to refine workforce planning,and analysing procurement trends to optimise supplier relationships.

These insights empower each function to make informed, data-driven decisions that align with strategic objectives across multiple key functions:

Our finance services go beyond accounting and reporting; we help redesign financial workflows for greater control and efficiency. From real-time financial reporting to advanced budgeting and forecasting tools, we streamline finance functions to improve decision-making speed and accuracy, minimise manual workloads, and maintain strict compliance with local regulations as they evolve.

Finance teams are empowered to provide strategic insights and better manage liquidity and investments, ultimately driving financial stability and growth.

We help modernise and integrate talent management, payroll, and compliance processes. With Company in a Box, businesses can implement automated payroll systems, unified employee data management and standardised onboarding and offboarding workflows. Our solutions enhance HR agility, enabling seamless tracking of employee performance, improved retention, and compliance with labour laws.

HR teams are enabled to focus on strategic goals, such as talent development and employee engagement, rather than administrative tasks.

Operational efficiency and cost savings demand procurement excellence. Our support services streamline the function by implementing end-to-end sourcing and vendor management systems that improve supplier performance, enhance contract compliance, and reduce procurement cycle times.

With advanced procurement analytics, we help organisations make smarter purchasing decisions, consolidate supplier bases and maximise cost savings, all while ensuring alignment with broader business goals.

PwC Middle East’s Managed Services can deliver robust, efficient services tailored to your industry and operating environment. By embedding best practices in finance, HR, and procurement and other services such as general and admin services and legal operations, we create a standardised yet flexible framework that drives operational excellence and strengthens your business’s foundation.
