“The Transparent team is trustworthy and cares about our success. They continuously share progress reports and support the further development of our P2P process.”
“Transparent has been instrumental in helping us gain valuable insights from our data. Their accounts payable recovery audit service has helped us identify and correct past errors, and triggered organisational improvements to prevent future cases, significantly improving our Accounts Payable controls. Thanks to Transparent, we now have better control over the credit note recovery process and an enhanced visibility over these flows.”
“Supplier statement reconciliation used to be complex and time-consuming for us. With Transparent handling this, we can now focus our AP resources on core activities. Their experienced expert team does most of the heavy lifting, minimizing our involvement. Transparent’s findings helped us improve our internal processes that led to duplicate payments in the past. We appreciate Transparent’s independence, quick and easy implementation, and disproportionately rewarding results.”
“Transparent has proven to be a valued business partner for Edgewell’s Global Business Services. Starting with accounts payable post-audits, they have expanded their support to unclaimed property and vendor statement reconciliation, providing valuable insight, personalized solutions and exceptional support. My advice to anyone considering Transparent is to build your relationship on collaboration, trust and shared goals. Explore Transparent’s range of services to improve your business performance and ease the burden on your team.”
“The project results exceeded our expectations, especially in comparison to our experiences with other providers in the past. As a result, we were able to implement various process improvements.”
“Transparent recovered erroneous payments and identified weaknesses in our AP processes. The team was very supportive and pleasant to work with.”
“Transparent’s AP audit is a valuable control tool. It goes beyond simply checking supplier payments and offers several benefits, such as an improved ability for Old Mutual to recover funds and additional insight into our existing processes. Partnering with Transparent has been a positive, professional and productive experience, characterized by good performance and clear communication.”
“Working with Transparent helped us recover funds and understand our processes in a way we could never do on our own. We simply don’t have the specialized tools or dedicated resources to do what Transparent does. And I don’t think any company could commit that much internal capacity to achieve these results. Every year, they give us something new to learn from.”
In my 15 years at Transparent, I’ve seen our clients make real progress – better control, smoother processes. Dealing with sales and use tax isn’t easy; it requires real know-how and grit. We look closely at the tax rules, not just to comply with the law but to give our clients what they’re entitled to. It’s rewarding to see those funds returned and to find ways to help our clients save more in the long run.

Find everything you need to know about our procurement performance management services.
Sales and use tax (SUT) recovery is about tracking down and reclaiming overpaid taxes or missed tax rebates related to your sales and use transactions. It’s like searching for hidden treasures in the world of taxes.
Our services are designed to optimize your tax compliance efforts and recover overpaid taxes made in error. We examine your transaction data, correct any errors, and provide valuable insights to improve your tax management.
We take a personalized approach to SUT recovery and focus on understanding your specific needs and challenges. Our team works independently to minimize disruption to operations while maximizing results. We’re not just numbers people; we’re partners invested in your success.
We only require the necessary data to conduct a comprehensive analysis. We’ll show you how to extract the necessary tables from your ERP system and upload that data securely to our platform. Our IT team will support you to ensure a seamless and secure data transfer. Alternatively, we can extract the data ourselves if you provide the necessary permissions.
Whatever the case, our team will guide you through every step and ensure a smooth and efficient process.
Security is at the heart of what we do. We achieve this through SOC2 Type II compliance and robust security measures within our Azure environments, including 24/7 Managed Detection and Response, GDPR compliance, and comprehensive Microsoft Defender modules.
We will not outsource your data – any information we handle stays within our clients’ respective regions. Access is exclusively via Azure Virtual Desktop, with multi-factor authentication, SQL Server encryption, strict data segregation, and encrypted portals for all data transactions. Our data security team is always available if you need a deeper insight into our security protocols.
