Value Chain Structuring Consultants
Value chain structuring strategically organises business activities across an international group to optimise value creation, operational efficiency, and tax compliance. It ensures profits align with value generation, matches the economic reality of the evolving business model, adheres to global tax rules like BEPS (Base Erosion and Profit Shifting), minimizes tax risks, and enhances profitability, supporting sustainable business growth across jurisdictions.

Who would benefit from value chain structuring?
Value Chain Structuring is undertaken by businesses with international operations that no longer align with their evolving business models. In a fast-paced environment, companies often find that their original group structure and operations have shifted to the point where intercompany transactions no longer reflect commercial realities, profits (or losses) are misaligned, and pressure from stakeholders—such as auditors, investors, and authorities—begins to mount.
Why use value chain structuring consultants?
Value chain structuring consultants provide the expertise needed to tackle the complex challenge of designing and implementing interdisciplinary change. Their ability to bridge between finance, tax, accounting, legal, regulatory, and commercial functions is crucial in establishing a new structure that works in practice. With technical expertise and strong project and stakeholder management skills, consultants guide businesses through the complexities of the restructuring process.

Design of value chain structure
Value chain design focuses on building a strategic framework to capture value creation across different business functions. Through structured dialogue and incremental deliverables, we capture the current and future state of business functions, assets, risks, and the value chain, along with the resulting intercompany transaction structure. This approach ensures the design is practical and aligned with real-world constraints. A well-structured value chain enhances cost-effectiveness, improves operational efficiency, and maximises profitability.
Value chain implementation ensures that the designed framework is effectively integrated into daily business operations. This process may involve confirming pricing for agreed transactions, reviewing and updating intercompany agreements, adjusting cost and revenue allocations, managing invoicing and reporting (both in and outside ERP systems), conducting valuations and benchmarking studies, and handling year-end adjustments. Ongoing management and monitoring are essential to ensure a smooth implementation, identify inefficiencies, and make necessary adjustments to maintain performance and compliance.

Documentation of value chain structure
Defence of value chain structure
Documenting your value chain involves capturing the new strategic framework for the group’s transfer pricing (TP) policy and maintaining detailed records of all processes, functions, and transactions within the chain. A well-documented TP policy enhances internal clarity for cross-functional alignment and onboarding of senior roles, while also building trust externally with investors, auditors, financial institutions, and other stakeholders.
In the event of audits or inquiries, having a robust defence strategy for your value chain is crucial. This involves leveraging detailed documentation and economic analyses to justify the choices you've made and implemented. Consider preparing a business case for changes, maintaining defence files, and keeping an audit trail of any adjustments. Engaging in advance agreements or collaborating with authorities can further strengthen your structure, helping to avoid penalties, ensure regulatory compliance, and minimize operational risks.

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.
