In the case of spend management solutions , we are already seeing companies with a need to streamline accounting processes and increase efficiency benefit immensely .
The evolution to expect in years to come
The tech in this area has already been improving rapidly , but November ’ s MTD deadline acted as a further motivator , with all newly-established VAT-registered companies entering the market in need of compliant software to support their business journeys .
Digital spend management tools are already delivering on invoice management , reimbursements , cash flow insights and automated accounting to help businesses streamline their internal operations and focus on their growth strategies – all in addition to helping them comply with MTD requirements .
In years to come , we expect to see those that have already invested benefit from more accurate data and a more straightforward taxation process , time and cost savings , and more agile and reliable financial operations .
All this is being delivered as a result of the leap towards digitisation provided by the MTD decision and will result in far greater investment into the sector in the near future . Those businesses that continue to prioritise digitalisation and tech investments will be the ones that reap the rewards . �
