In the first phase of our Move Tax Forward campaign, we set out our belief that further significant change in Tax was inevitable. 

That change is being forced by extensive regulatory pressure and enabled by significant changes in best practice. 

We outlined our view that there will be much more emphasis placed on Tax compliance and reporting, and that Tax processes will evolve in the same way as other areas of an organisation: - seeking to achieve best practice, cost-effectiveness and operational savings. 

We clearly believe that organisations should be embracing this change rather than resisting it, and should be seeking to move Tax forward. 

They should be taking advantage of Tax technology solutions, integrating the Tax organisation more closely with the rest of the business, and releasing Tax to really add value to the organisation.

In our experience, companies are now recognising the need for that change - the need for a transformation in the way we go about Tax - and they are now wrestling with the issues that raises.  As a result, we want to share our vision of the final destination of a transformation in Tax, and explore the different routes that we believe you may want to consider in order to get there.

We aim to use this website as a way of introducing some ideas that may help get you started on your move Tax forward journey. We'll look at how Tax technology can help you drive through change in the way you manage Tax, and introduce Abacus Enterprise, our new global Tax technology platform for compliance and reporting.  We'll describe what progress results when Tax technologies are blended with Tax management consulting and delivery services. We'll also consider the final destination of a journey designed to move Tax forward, and give you a view of what this means to us.

We hope you find the website interesting.
