Tax Enterprise Services

Turning your ERP system into a game changing tax function

IP Consulting

Optimizing your ERP migration

Your ERP system acts as the central nervous system of your organization, seamlessly connecting various functions such as financial transactions, supply chain management, HR, and sales control. With the tax department being one of the largest consumers of data within an organization, it plays a vital role in ensuring the functionality and efficiency of the ERP system. By incorporating tax aspects into the planning and implementation process from the beginning, you can maximize the return on investment (ROI) for your ERP upgrade or migration.

KPMG Tax Enterprise Services takes a holistic approach to your tax target operating model, considering all tax areas impacted by ongoing finance transformations and ERP migrations.

Countdown to 2027

SAP, a leading ERP solutions provider, is phasing out support for their legacy platform by 2027, prompting companies to migrate to either the cloud-based solution, SAP S/4HANA, or an alternative ERP platform. Regardless of the platform chosen, integrating tax requirements from the start of the migration is critical to ensure automation, data quality, control, and efficiency.

Creating enterprise value from SAP S/4HANA tax transformation

Broad tax transformation requires a dedicated tax integration team that bridges the gap between tax and the system integrator (SI). We specialize in defining and implementing tax-sensitized ERP systems and tax-efficient operating models. By involving tax and other business stakeholders early in the ERP implementation process, we can generate enterprise-wide value and cash tax savings that may offset the implementation cost.

Enterprise Risk

New tax laws and regulatory requirements are elevating enterprise risk, which is further compounded by manual processes and the lack of tax data in legacy ERP systems.

Tax Data

ERP transformation provides a significant opportunity to enhance tax data, leading to downstream process efficiencies, better alignment between tax and key business partners, and operational cost reductions.

Tax Credits and Incentives

Many jurisdictions offer R&D tax credits and incentives to encourage companies to invest in technology initiatives, such as ERP upgrade programs.

Tax Planning

Proper integration of tax considerations within the ERP allows the tax function to identify and implement tax-planning strategies, improving the effective tax rate and after-tax cash flows.

Building a comprehensive tax roadmap for your ERP migration

The migration to SAP S/4HANA will have a significant impact on all areas of tax within your organization. To ensure a smooth transition, the TES team can assist you in drafting a comprehensive tax roadmap. Our holistic and integrated approach focuses, but is not limited to, the following key areas:
