Growing companies face increasingly complex challenges: global operations, constantly changing legislation, extensive supply chains, and the pressure to make quick and assertive decisions.
In this scenario, relying solely on technology or specialized consulting is not enough.
True competitive advantage arises from the integration of robust management tools and qualified strategic guidance. This is precisely the proposition of the partnership between Active Cloud Solutions and Drummond Advisors, which combines the best of both worlds: global cloud-based ERP with Brazilian tax localization and international consulting in taxation, accounting, and governance.
The role of technology in corporate management.
The transition to the new tax model is not just an accounting issue—it's also a technological challenge. Tax automation and data integration tools become indispensable for companies operating in multiple states and countries.
A world-class ERP system, such as Oracle NetSuite, centralizes processes, connects branches, and provides real-time data for decision-making. However, in Brazil, the fiscal and tax complexities demand more than that.
Without proper localization, ERP can become a source of rework, inconsistencies, and risks of non-compliance.
This is where Active comes in:
- Over 100 NetSuite experts ready for deployment, customization, end-to-end integrations, and ongoing support.
- Over 500 projects successfully implemented in Brazil and around the world.
- Largest customer base in the country, with the most documented success stories.
- 97,7% proven satisfaction, reflecting our dedication to delivering solid results.
This expertise ensures that the technology is always aligned with the Brazilian tax reality and the global needs of each company.
The role of strategic consulting
While technology ensures operational efficiency, tax and corporate consulting is what guarantees compliance and legal security.
Drummond Advisors is a leader in:
- International tax planning.
- Corporate structuring across multiple jurisdictions.
- Support in global accounting (IFRS, US GAAP).
- Reducing the risk of double taxation.
- Adaptability to scenarios of expansion and attracting investment.
Alongside Active, Drummond complements companies' journey, ensuring that strategy is integrated with technological execution.
The main challenges for global companies
Internationalization brings numerous advantages, such as access to new markets, revenue diversification, and brand strengthening, but it also increases the risks of tax inconsistency.
In the case of Brazil, the transition to the new fiscal model requires attention to three pillars:
1. Operational complexity
Multinational companies need to integrate their local operations with global tax systems. With VAT, the calculation and crediting of taxes will follow new rules, requiring adjustments to ERPs and accounting management platforms.
2. Compliance risks
The temporary coexistence of the old tax system and the new VAT system can lead to inconsistencies and penalties. It is essential to review accounting policies and ensure that tax reports comply with the transition rules.
3. Tax and strategic planning
The reform significantly alters the structure of regional and sectoral incentives. Companies located in tax benefit zones will need to reassess their location strategy and seek new tax optimization alternatives.
Digital transformation + regulatory security
The combination of technology and consulting generates concrete results for companies that need to grow without compromising compliance.
- Automated compliance in several countries.
- International financial management in real time.
- Integration between branches and headquarters with complete visibility.
- Adapting to the changes brought about by the Brazilian Tax Reform.
- Operational efficiency with risk reduction.
In other words, Active and Drummond deliver the solid foundation every organization needs to transform complexity into a competitive advantage.
Growth requires complementarity.
The era of digital transformation demands more than just good tools or good ideas in isolation. For expansion to be sustainable, it is necessary to combine cutting-edge technology and regulatory strategy.
The partnership between Active Cloud Solutions and Drummond Advisors is an example of how this complementarity can generate consistent results, helping companies face the complexities of Brazil while simultaneously positioning themselves securely on the global stage.
