KPMG's Digital Transformation with Alteryx: Enhancing Client Outcomes

KPMG, one of the 'Big Four' accounting firms, has a long-standing reputation for delivering results for clients across 146 countries and territories. However, the firm recognized the need to digitally transform its operations to maintain its competitive edge and continue to provide high-quality services. The challenge was to streamline processes, optimize compliance, and help organizations transform their functions for the future. This was part of KPMG’s Tax Reimagined initiative, which aimed to help tax leaders embrace disruption, seize new opportunities, and drive greater value. To achieve this, KPMG needed to change the way its people work and interact daily, necessitating an investment in data and analytics platforms. The firm also needed to eliminate human error and automate its processes of entering and accessing data and performing quantitative analysis. The existing system was slow and lacked transparency, with some calculations taking up to 30 minutes to complete in Excel.

KPMG is one of the 'Big Four' accounting firms, with a history spanning over 130 years. The firm operates in 146 countries and territories, serving the needs of businesses, governments, public-sector agencies, not-for-profits, and the capital markets through its audit and assurance practices. KPMG is known for its breadth and depth of services and solutions provided to its clients. The firm is committed to a technology-first holistic approach to help its clients redefine their approach to tax. This commitment is part of KPMG’s Tax Reimagined initiative, which aims to help tax leaders embrace disruption, seize new opportunities, and drive greater value.
