- Corporate Affairs
➔ Internal Audit outsourced to Deloitte ➔ Tax, Treasury and Finance remains unaffected ➔ R54m savings annually
Business restructure
➔ Bytes Document Solutions restructure
- R22m savings annually
➔ Bytes Universal Systems and Bytes Systems Integration
- Initial integration yielded R20m savings
annually ➔ Bytes Managed Solutions
- Cost-containment exercise
11
We right-sized our head office and key operations
Group annual savings of R96 million
Operations Highlights
Set up shared services function and derived 6.6% cost saving on existing cost base of R350m – for repeatable, transactional and standardised processes Centralising specific functions – Group IT, procurement (non-cost of sale related), recruitment, payroll, legal, real estate management and finance Focus on driving an improved employee experience through digital work place roll out Driving our own cloud transformation – we are one of the largest consumers of Microsoft Azure services Managed through legal department to reduce costs by managing our own IP and disputes Standardised recruitment through one portal across the group Finance: employing robotic process automation to drive cost reduction Introduced Power BI (dash-boarding tool) and data analytics practice for efficient dissemination of information for financials, HR and operational data 12
Our new shared-services model is delivering savings

Some execution challenges were experienced and we remain focused on getting things right
