A CASE STUDY
The Company:
A supplier of fabricated steel equipment to large food service firms such as Starbucks, Subway, and Walmart.
The Challenge:
This supplier needed to find a better way to handle tax compliance. The supplier’s legacy tax software was incompatible with their ERP. This led to:
- The required upgrade to the latest Infor ERP version without having a pre-built, certified, fully-functional connector
- The reliance upon labor-intensive, error-prone manual processes
- Inaccurate customer addresses
- Uncertainty around product and service taxability, as well as nexus
- Increased audit risk
