Tax Automation & Innovation

Rethink your tax processes, from data to deliverable

Elevate your tax department from reactive to proactive 

We are aware that tax and accounting departments face a continuous stream of new and changing obligations, ranging from increasingly stringent regulatory and reporting obligations to the need for improved speed and full tax transparency. 

How can you address all these challenges without missing opportunities? By investing more in technology, both existing and new, to obtain data-driven insights, improve reporting (almost in real time), work in a fully compliant manner and seize every new opportunity.  

And how can you find that technology and implement it? Our BDO Tax and Digital specialists work together with organisations (both private and public) to design and document processes, extract, transform and upload source data, automate tax calculations and streamline tax reporting. 

To do this, we provide you with state-of-the-art tools, sector-related best practices and extensive technical knowledge. Everything to get the most out of innovation.  

Including a complete process and technology roadmap with training and continuous support to help your team manage the complexity. In this way, you can avoid adverse consequences and be fully compliant without missing tax benefits.

With better processes and technology, you meet new tax requirements for data provision, invoicing and reporting. You reduce risks and work faster, more accurately and more efficiently, while also limiting the impact of disruptions in the future.
