The IT services sector remains in a long-term growth phase.  Significant federal spending together with continued expansion are driving new business opportunities in the IT sector.

In light of this environment, Moore Stephens has formed the IT Services Focus Group to bring together key experts who have worked extensively in the IT Services sector.  The Group meets on a regular basis to discuss trends in IT Services and to share knowledge across areas of expertise.

The IT Services Focus Group can provide advice over a range of areas including:

• audit services for financial reporting purposes and advice on Australian Equivalents to Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS) requirements
• consulting services as companies grow from start-up entities through to large private corporations, and on to publicly accountable organisations
• advice on appropriate tax structures
• transfer pricing issues
• tax and accounting implications of research and development expenditure
• revenue management issues
• outsourcing services, including accounting services and product offerings
• advice on designing expatriate policies and managing expatriate tax matters.
