inlumi and BDO celebrate award for ‘best tax technology product’
The Enterprise Tax Reporting Solution, part of the OneStream unified platform, created by inlumi with tax content powered by BDO, has been named 'best tax technology product' at the 2025 Tolley's Taxation Awards.
The award was presented to inlumi CEO Ashley Chapman and Ian Bowden, head of BDO's Tax Automation and Innovation Practice, at the annual Lexis Nexis Taxation awards ceremony held in London on 8 May.
The judges praised the product for its innovative approach to unifying finance and tax teams globally.
Launched in May 2024 to the OneStream user community, the Enterprise Tax Reporting Solution has quickly become a must-have module, finally bringing finance and tax teams together worldwide. The Solution aims to give tax professionals access to the same tools and data as their finance colleagues. Fully integrating a global Enterprise Tax Reporting solution into the core finance OneStream solution has been a ‘game changer’.
inlumi developed the Enterprise Tax Reporting Solution to streamline and enhance the entire tax function, with current modules covering Tax Provision, Pillar Two, and Country-by-country reporting. Future developments are planned to expand the solution to include Transfer Pricing and ESG tax reporting. Built within the OneStream unified Finance Platform, and with tax technical content provided and maintained globally by BDO, the solution ensures seamless integration with current and future financial processes.
Ashley Chapman, CEO of inlumi, said: "Seeing this product through from concept to launch—and getting such a supportive response from the market—has been hugely gratifying. Winning this award is really the icing on the cake."
Ian Bowden, head of Tax Automation and Innovation at BDO, added: "Ashley and I have talked for over 15 years about how we could unify finance and tax teams and data, and I am delighted to offer a solution to the market that does just that. The feedback from current and potential OneStream clients has been outstanding, having a unified solution with real tax content is the right thing to do. I'm so proud of the whole team, everyone has worked so hard to turn this into a market-leading solution. Our BDO global team has been outstanding, helping keep our technical updates current. Receiving this industry-recognised award is yet further validation that the vision we had all those years ago was the right one."
