Abstract
Successfully establishing service sites abroad requires a fine balance between standardization and localization. On the one hand, standardized services enable the service provider to both ensure similar quality levels on a global scale and achieve economies of scale. On the other hand, localizing service processes is crucial for acceptance and subsequently performance of the services in the target country.
