  • Recommendations for an appropriate tax CMS structure and process organization
  • Creating and implementing tax guidelines
  • Risk and control matrix to identify risks and measures to mitigate them
  • Preparing guidelines and procedural instructions for specific types of tax, and recommending action to minimize identified risks
  • Developing a consensus-based tax CMS control system (control types, control intensity)
  • Analyzing and modelling core tax processes
  • Setting up a reporting system for compliance breaches and other matters
  • Defining processes for escalation and sanctions
  • Ensuring tax data compliance (with German GoBD regulations) and implementing IT-supported monitoring systems, in particular governance, risk and compliance solutions, continuous monitoring systems, tax data models, and individual assistance systems
