The client is a leading accounting and financial consulting firm based in the United States, renowned for delivering comprehensive tax, audit, and advisory services. With a strong legacy and a wide portfolio of corporate and individual clients, the firm is known for its precision, integrity, and deep industry expertise. The firm plays a pivotal role in helping clients navigate complex financial regulations and optimize their fiscal performance.

The Challenge: Workflow Inefficiencies During Peak

For a leading accounting and financial consulting firm, the tax season brought intense operational pressure. With over 10,000 tax returns to prepare for senior executives across 400+ Fortune 1000 companies, the volume alone posed a significant challenge. Each return demanded meticulous attention to detail, extensive document handling, and stringent compliance with IRS regulations. The process, largely manual, was not only tedious and time-consuming but also prone to bottlenecks that could delay submissions.

Beyond the complexity of return preparation, the firm faced mounting client expectations. They needed to ensure a smooth and uninterrupted flow of return filing, while proactively resolving client queries before submission to the IRS system. This required a robust mechanism for real-time communication and visibility into the status of each tax return—something the existing workflow could not support effectively.

These challenges were felt most acutely by the Chief Operating Officer (COO), who was responsible for streamlining operations and ensuring delivery excellence. Ensuring timely submissions, improving workforce efficiency, and sustaining high client satisfaction were top priorities. The lack of automation was beginning to threaten service quality and long-standing client relationships, prompting the urgent need for a scalable solution.

The Solution: TruBot Streamlines Tax Filing

To address the firm's mounting operational challenges, Datamatics deployed its intelligent Robotic Process Automation (RPA) solution, TruBot, to transform the tax return preparation process. TruBot was configured to handle the complex and high-volume nature of the task—automating the extraction and validation of data from thousands of unstructured documents, including tax forms, supporting schedules, and executive records.

The bots were designed to replicate the actions of human processors with greater speed and precision. They seamlessly navigated through diverse file formats, compiled necessary information, and entered it into the tax preparation system. This not only eliminated manual data entry errors but also significantly accelerated the cycle time of return preparation, especially during peak filing seasons.

In addition, Datamatics introduced automated query resolution fields within the workflow. These fields allowed tax preparers to raise queries and receive timely, automated responses before final submission. This ensured that each return was complete, accurate, and compliant before being uploaded to the IRS system, thereby reducing rework, enhancing transparency, and improving client confidence in the process
