Digital Tax Hub for one of the Big Four Accounting Firm

•  Objective

  The client is building a Digital Tax Hub; it is like TurboTax for digital tax. Many countries like India, Mexico, Spain have digitized their tax collection. Here every invoice needs to be submitted to the Government, and then various kind of taxes are calculated. The client is building a tax hub, where multinational companies will send all their invoices, GL, COA and Trial Balance to Client. Client will then file these invoices with the government and provides overall compliance guidance and tax saving opportunities.

•  Challenge

  It is a daunting task for our client. There are about 34 countries identified for this solution; every country has its own rules, language, and practices. Client needs to collect data (Invoices, GL, Trial balance) from customer’s ERP system and then map it to their standard data model. Client also needs to build a standard data model and then build a rules engine to cover various kinds of tax rules, specific to each country.

•  Solution

  It is a multi-year project as client is committed to building this solution on MS Azure. They picked OvalEdge for their cataloging needs as there would be thousands of clients, and their dozens of ERP systems which they need to map with their standard data model. Client wants to leverage various functionalities of OvalEdge in their solution, so they got OEM deal for this project. They also hired OvalEdge to be their primary vendor to build this solution for client along with their internal team.
