Multinational companies are increasingly looking externally to outsource financial and tax processes such as Record-to-Report, Purchase-to-Pay and Order-to-Cash, among others.
KPMG's Managed Services offers you a solution that goes beyond traditional outsourcing – we manage end-to-end finance, accounting, reporting and tax processes.
As opposed to traditional outsourcing models – where we request relevant data and information from you, and process it, such as in a report, financial statements and tax returns – with our Managed Services model, we will take over the complete finance, accounting and/or tax process for you.
We have a dedicated multidisciplinary team that can cover multiple jurisdictions and handle high volume transactions.
Our approach
Our Managed Services team is a central hub – a dedicated team composed of different specialists. We have people specialized in the set-up and day-to-day management of Managed Services, combined with a team focused on service delivery.
Beyond qualitative service delivery, our aim is to create additional value for you, generating ideas for finance and tax transformation, risk management, tax and other opportunities.
Key characteristics of our Managed Services approach:
- High quality, tailored approach that enables us to connect to your proprietary finance, tax and accounting processes
