A Strategic Approach to Turning Tax Obligations into a Competitive Advantage

Corporate tax management faces a new landscape in 2025: more data, more electronic cross-checks, and less room for error. In this context, Tax Intelligence emerges as a strategic differentiator, combining technology, advanced analytics, and tax expertise to ensure efficiency, compliance, and real savings.

In this article, we explain how to apply Tax Intelligence in practice and the tangible benefits your company can achieve.

What is Tax Intelligence?

Tax Intelligence is the integration of tax and accounting data with technological tools and strategic analysis, enabling faster, safer, and well-founded decision-making. In practice, it brings together:

• Specialized tax knowledge

• Tax automation and data-crossing solutions

• Electronic diagnostics and tax credit recovery

• Continuous risk monitoring and compliance

1. Cost Reduction through Tax Credit Recovery

One of the main benefits of Tax Intelligence is recovering taxes that were overpaid or paid incorrectly. This is possible through automated analysis of tax operations — such as purchases, withholdings, and tax regimes — based on the company’s own ERP data.

Practical examples:

• PIS/COFINS credits from unclaimed inputs

• ICMS-ST unduly paid in interstate operations

• Social security recoveries due to errors in withholdings and REINF

2. Avoiding Penalties with Electronic Compliance

The electronic cross-checking of information between SPED, ECF, eSocial, DCTFWeb, and electronic invoices is already a reality. Tax Intelligence applies preventive validations to ensure that data sent to tax authorities is consistent, avoiding audits and costly penalties.

What your company avoids:

• Penalties for discrepancies between obligations

• Costs with tax defenses and infraction notices

• Reputational risks with investors

3. Greater Efficiency with Tax Automation

Tasks such as tax calculations, filing of ancillary obligations, and report generation can be safely automated with tailored tax solutions.

This reduces the operational workload of the team, minimizes rework, and frees up internal staff to focus on more analytical and strategic activities.

4. Data-Driven Decision-Making

By applying Tax Intelligence, companies gain a consolidated view of tax data. This allows for simulations of tax regimes, financial impact analyses, and more assertive tax planning aligned with business objectives.

Conclusion

Tax Intelligence is more than a trend — it’s a necessity for companies that want to grow with security and efficiency in 2025. INFIS offers a comprehensive approach, combining technology, automation, and tax expertise to deliver real savings and stronger tax compliance for your business.
