Independent Advisory
on Fiscalisation and Digital Compliance
Advising governments and public authorities on the design, reform, and implementation of national fiscalisation frameworks supporting VAT and transaction monitoring.
Advisory in Focus
This advisory practice operates at the intersection of fiscal policy, regulatory design, and transaction-monitoring architecture, supporting informed and accountable decision-making in the design, reform, and oversight of national tax-monitoring frameworks.
Engagements are deliberately vendor-neutral and execution-aware, with a strong emphasis on governance, long-term sustainability, and public accountability. Services are provided at policy, governance, and programme-oversight level, including independent assurance during implementation, while excluding system operation, vendor approval, and implementation execution.
Fiscalisation Programme Design and Reform
Assessment, design, and reform of national tax monitoring programmes and consumer-incentive mechanisms, including transition strategies from legacy regimes to modern compliance frameworks.
VAT Monitoring System Architecture
Vendor-neutral, high-level design of system architectures and transaction data flows, with an emphasis on resilience, scalability, auditability, and interoperability across new and renewed tax monitoring programmes.
Vendor Ecosystem Governance and Accreditation
Guidance on EFD and vendor accreditation, governance, and lifecycle management, informed by cross-jurisdictional experience.
Receipt Lottery and Consumer Compliance Mechanisms
Design and assessment of receipt-based consumer compliance mechanisms, including lottery, rebate, and tax-relief models, to support tax compliance objectives and improve enforcement outcomes.
Implementation Risk Reduction and Governance Oversight
Independent review conducted before and during the implementation of tax monitoring programmes, to identify risks early and support informed, timely corrective decisions.
Awareness and Adoption Enablement
Design and delivery guidance for awareness and adoption programmes, ensuring that legal, technical, and operational reforms are clearly communicated and effectively adopted by taxpayers, vendors, and consumers.
Why Fiscalisation Programmes Require
Independent Advice
Governments implementing or reforming fiscalisation programmes face complex trade-offs between policy objectives, legal obligations, technology constraints, vendor capabilities, and operational realities. Experience across multiple jurisdictions demonstrates that when early decisions lack independence or execution awareness, programmes struggle to deliver sustainable public outcomes.
Early-stage, independent advisory support provides the foundation for informed decisions, reduced delivery risk, and long-term programme credibility, enabling governments and agencies to meet their obligations to the public with confidence.
Who This Advisory Is Intended For
Fiscalisations works with:
Engagements typically commence prior to procurement or legislative finalisation, but may also extend into implementation oversight, long-term programme governance, or targeted review engagements where independent assessment is required.
Independence and Operating Principles
Fiscalisations operates independently from system vendors, technology providers, and implementation contracts.
The advisory role focuses on decision support, risk reduction, long-term programme sustainability, and maximising outcomes. Where appropriate, work may be performed alongside multiple delivery partners, while maintaining neutrality and avoiding commercial alignment with any specific solution.
This independence enables governments to evaluate options objectively and proceed with confidence and assurance.
Initial Advisory Engagement
An initial discussion focuses on understanding objectives, constraints, and key challenges related to new framework implementations or the renewal of existing arrangements. Based on this discussion, a tailored advisory proposal is prepared, outlining the recommended scope and approach for engagement, prior to any contractual commitment.
