Outsourcing
The approach to outsourcing helps companies meet their VAT/GST obligations accurately and efficiently, without the need for large investments in in-house talent or monitoring of constantly changing regulations across the world. The EY Global VAT Compliance and Reporting service is the enabler, using advanced technology and deep subject matter knowledge to transform how you fulfil multi-country compliance obligations, including those for VAT, GST or other VAT-type indirect taxes.
EY professionals who understand your business bring you new perspectives through significant investment in the EY Global Tax Platform (GTP). Powered by Microsoft Azure, GTP offers the crucial foundation for seamless outsourcing. Your business is supported with state-of-the-art technology via a plug-and-play architecture that can improve risk management and tax governance through global visibility and control. Accessible at any time and from anywhere, it also can enhance tax data quality, provide high-value analytics and help identify opportunities.
Co-sourcing
Entirely outsourcing your indirect tax obligations to outside advisors can be a valid approach, but between that and insourcing there is an intriguing middle-of-the-road option for some companies: co-sourcing. By continuing to own critical functions, while co-sourcing others, companies can maximize both effectiveness and efficiency and set better priorities around where their in-house people and process solutions can add the most value. In some cases, specific geographies and activities are outsourced, while others are managed in-house.
Functional control remains in-house through the EY Global VAT Compliance and Reporting hybrid co-sourcing approach. EY resources help manage those parts of the VAT/GST compliance obligations where EY can offer more value and address areas of added complexity. With EY people and infrastructure available on an as-needed basis, this gives your organization greater flexibility and you gain opportunities for significantly reducing your costs to recruit, train and employ in-house talent.
