According to a study commissioned by the American consulting company Gartnerglobal investments in IT are predicted to reach the US$5.1 trillion mark in 2024, representing an increase of 8% compared to 2023 figures.
As companies look for ways to optimize their operations and reduce costs following a period of global recession, IT infrastructure outsourcing can be a strategic tool to boost operational efficiency and also provide significant benefits, including a reduction in tax revenue. .
For Arklok, one of the main IT infrastructure companies in Brazil, this type of service guarantees greater breathing space for companies, including helping to reduce taxes.
IT Infrastructure outsourcing
IT infrastructure outsourcing allows companies to outsource the management of their systems, servers, networks and other technological resources to specialized providers, as explained by Andrea Rivetti, president of Arklok.
“By outsourcing technology infrastructure management, organizations can focus their resources and efforts on core business activities, while experts take care of the maintenance, updating and security of technological infrastructure.”
In addition to facilitating operational and security processes, outsourcing can offer a series of cost reductions related to infrastructure and maintenance. However, one of the points that deserves to be highlighted are the tax reductions related to the model.
Taxation in Brazil
According to a research carried out by the Tax Foundation, one of the main independent tax organizations in the United States, Brazil has the 15th highest tax rate charged on the corporate sector in the world. The survey, which involved 225 countries, reveals that taxation on Brazilian companies is much higher than the average for developed countries.
Given this scenario, the search for alternatives that allow large companies to reduce their tax burdens becomes crucial, as these reductions can contribute to healthy business growth in the complex Brazilian economic scenario.
“We know that one of the challenges facing large companies is the high taxes they receive. Therefore, it becomes essential that companies look for alternatives to reduce their expenses and guarantee legal alternatives to pay less taxes”, comments Andrea.
Tax cuts
The strategic decision to adopt outsourcing in the management of IT infrastructure can be seen as a strategic approach on the part of companies. At first, companies avoid hiring and maintaining a team specialized in managing IT resources. This saves money on labor costs, which are considered income tax deductible expenses.
Furthermore, outsourcing allows for considerable fiscal flexibility related to IT infrastructure. By classifying expenses associated with this sector as operating expenses, companies can enjoy an immediate tax deduction. This aspect directly contrasts with the acquisition of IT assets, which often require amortization over time, impacting liquidity and long-term financial performance.
The financial flexibility provided by outsourcing is not limited to reducing immediate costs. By transforming capital expenses into deductible operating expenses, companies can adapt more quickly to changes in technological demands constantly demanded by the market.
“We can see that, when considering the challenging tax reality that companies face in Brazil, outsourcing can be an ally for companies to achieve not only efficiency, but also smarter tax management, reducing their tax liabilities”, concludes the president .
