The Shared Services area is accountable for the provision of centralized “back-office” services, allowing the other FAMLI branches to focus on their specific business goals. The shared services provided include items such as training, quality assurance, project management, communications, contract management, staffing coordination, etc. which are services that are needed throughout each FAMLI branch.
