Is a VAT? Is a WHT? No… is a GST!

Is your software vendor prepared at all times for any upgrades?

While the GST has been called to halt for the time being, what other surprises will businesses get in the near future?

Changes and policies
Government policies can change overnight, rates can be altered and more changes are affecting businesses in one way or another. Businesses have been using Information Technology (IT) to sustain business, build relationships, increase sales, manage commissions and even control employees. Changes like Goods and Services Tax (GST) or Value-Added Tax (VAT) and in some countries Withholding Tax, are but a small and insignificant addition.

Impact on Changes
However, the impact could be huge. Are your staffs prepared of these changes? How many memos, faxes, reminders, emails and broadcasts are going to be sent out just for one small insignificant change? Is your IT system prepared for the changes and what are the costs of upgrade? Any additional trainings to your employees after upgrading your software? All these need to be countered in.
