UN-Women strategically plans for and transforms its business model to deliver impact at scale, through agile and ethical leadership rooted in a continuous improvement culture.

In 2024, UN Women reinforced its commitment to efficiently and effectively discharging business processes that advance the integrated delivery of its mandate . Building on its contributions to the Common Back Office ( CBO ) proposal, the organization played a central role in fostering collaboration and developing strategies for procurement, travel, human resources, ICT, and security. Throughout the year, UN Women maintained its significant role as a key member of the CBO committee, thoroughly evaluating proposals, including those from UNDP, from both technical and financial perspectives. Lot 01 for common premises became fully functional, enabling shared services to operate seamlessly. Additionally, the procurement function under the CBO began providing services to other agencies; however, UN Women has not yet signed the MOU required to start using these services directly. As 2024 drew to a close , UN Women contributions to the Common Back Office initiative highlighted its commitment to advancing sustainability and innovation within the broader UN framework. By addressing challenges, promoting risk assessments, the organization solidified its participation in the integrated service delivery.
