Abstract/Summary
Abstract The purpose of this research is to standardize the local transfer pricing documentation
(Local File) of ABCDE Group which may reduce the compliance costs while it aims in enhancing the local compliance worldwide. Guided by the Transfer Pricing-related frameworks, this action research will address the technical aspect and best practices in efficiently managing the local transfer pricing compliance, specifically the local transfer pricing documentation preparation. First cycle covers the preparation of a Local File template which is a standard template that will serve as the guide to the regions and countries in complying with local transfer pricing documentation rules and regulations. Also, it presents the System Thinking that visually shows the issues, causes, and other contributing factors. It serves as a guide to better understand how things are being interrelated within the system. On the other hand, the second cycle covers the risk assessment process which would help the transfer pricing team to better understand the needs of its stakeholders – the regions and countries. As a result, a new strategic approach towards the preparation of local transfer pricing documentation has been established and continually implemented. The centralization of Local File preparation resulted in an outstanding allocation of the team’s scarce resources, including the time and effort, and stronger collaborative efforts between the regions and the Corporate towards a common goal.
