Who would benefit from operational transfer pricing?
Why use an operational transfer pricing consultant?
International businesses find value in establishing operational transfer pricing to achieve better control, accuracy and efficiency of cross-border transactions between their subsidiaries, divisions, or related entities. Operational transfer pricing / OTP provides financial transparency, supports strategic business decisions, accurately allocates revenues and expenses across different jurisdictions and enhances compliance with international tax laws.
An Operational Transfer Pricing (OTP) consultant is hired to ensure that a company's transfer pricing practices are effectively implemented and compliant with regulations. They help standardise and automate transfer pricing processes, reducing errors and improving efficiency. OTP consultants provide solutions supporting real-time monitoring, ensuring that intercompany transactions are consistent with the arm's length principle. They also assist in managing transfer pricing risks, ensuring proper documentation and controls are in place, and facilitating better coordination among stakeholders to maintain compliance and optimise tax outcomes.

What are operational transfer pricing approaches?
Implementing TP processes and tooling in & outside of ERPs
Setting up pricing for intercompany arrangements requires specific adjustments to the chosen ERP system to ensure a smooth, automated flow. Many ERP systems have limitations and cannot accommodate detailed cost center / cost splits or other precise pricing requirements. In these cases, Excel-based tools are invaluable. For instance, we use them to bridge gaps between accounting ERP data, transfer pricing policies, cost allocation methodologies, and ERP data for invoicing.
Operational Transfer Pricing Methods
Transfer Pricing process automation
For a scaling & already sizeable business, implementing and maintaining an effective Transfer Pricing policy, while managing associated risks, can become challenging. Practical, intelligent automation - often Excel-based - can offer significant support in areas such as intercompany invoicing, Permanent Establishment (PE) monitoring, interest rate setting, and year-end reconciliation of intercompany charges.
Process mapping, procedures and controls
As operations grow - often pre IPO - establishing clear roles, responsibilities, procedures, and controls becomes a priority. Mapping out / introducing processes - from business decisions to their financial, tax, and legal impacts - is an effective way to secure stakeholder alignment and ensure timely action. We can assist in identifying and linking relevant business changes and triggers (e.g. new product, new intercompany transaction, new pricing, new market) to your transfer pricing policy.
Standardising data, reporting and analytics
Standardising reporting and analytics ensures uniformity in how transfer pricing data is reported and analysed across the organisation, improving accuracy, comparability, and efficiency of financial reporting as well as compliance. For example we assist in standardising data for statutory transfer pricing documentation, laying the groundwork for implementation of your preferred TP documentation or analytics tool.
Standardising Transfer Pricing documentation
Our approach to transfer pricing documentation is modular and practical. We create building blocks to the files and integrate them seamlessly, telling your story right while meeting the country specific requirements and reflecting business developments. It’s about having the right amount of documentation and making smart use of available data. We also help organisation adopt this approach in-house.
Stakeholder management
Collaboration with multiple internal (legal, accounting, finance team) and external stakeholder (auditors, tax inspectors, due diligence professionals) of your organisation to bring clarity and ensure alignment between all involved parties on different transfer pricing related issues.

The team at iVC Consulting is young but nevertheless very experienced and knowledgeable. They quickly obtained a good understanding of our quite complex global structure and resulting needs in relation to a global transfer pricing policy. They approached the problem as if they were internal employees of Docplanner - in a very pragmatic and efficient way. I was also impressed by their modeling skills. Highly recommend, especially for high-growth tech companies.
