SUMMARY:Conquering Manufacturing Tax: Real-World Lessons and AI-Driven Trends in Compliance
DESCRIPTION:Manufacturers face one of the most complex indirect tax environments in the country—layered exemptions\, shifting state rules\, aggressive audit enforcement\, and growing expectations for accuracy and speed. Many still rely on spreadsheets\, siloed systems\, and outdated assumptions that leave them exposed to penalties and inefficiencies.  \n\n\n\nIn this session\, experts from Vertex and Tronconi Segarra & Associates will share real-world insights from manufacturers navigating compliance challenges across multiple states. Through practical examples and client stories\, they’ll unpack how automation\, centralized data\, and emerging AI trends are transforming tax management—from exemption tracking and use tax verification to audit defense and strategic reporting.  \n\n\n\nWhether you work in-house at a manufacturing company or advise manufacturing clients\, you’ll gain actionable strategies to modernize compliance processes\, strengthen audit readiness\, and build a smarter tax function for the future.  \n\n\n\nLearning objectives: \n\n\n\nApply practical strategies to modernize indirect tax compliance processes within manufacturing operations or client engagements.  \n\n\n\nIdentify the most common indirect tax compliance challenges facing manufacturers today\, including multi-jurisdictional exemptions\, rate discrepancies\, and use tax exposure. \n\n\n\nAnalyze recent state enforcement trends and audit practices to understand how manufacturers are being detected and assessed post-Wayfair. \n\n\n\nEvaluate how automation and emerging AI capabilities can enhance tax accuracy\, streamline exemption and certificate management\, and strengthen audit defense.
