HMRC writes to prepare businesses for a no-deal Brexit

What a no-deal Brexit means for businesses

HMRC has written to hundreds of thousands of UK businesses that only trade with the EU to tell them what to expect if there is a no-deal Brexit.The letters have been sent to some 145,000 VAT-registered businesses, explaining that they should prepare for possible changes to customs, excise and VAT procedures.

Businesses which trade with non-EU countries will already be perfectly used to these procedures, as they are par for the course when trading with the rest of the world. But businesses which trade only within the EU will have to make considerable adjustments, as at the moment, there are no customs checks or declarations between Britain and the rest of the EU.

Any changes would, in theory, come into force at 11pm on March 29, when Britain leaves the EU. A transition period until at least the end of 2020 to make the process more gradual still looks likely, but it is unclear what this would involve.

Minimising disruption?

The more comprehensive the deal that the UK signs with the EU, if indeed it does sign one, the less disruption there is likely to be. Negotiations stalled further on Tuesday 16 October, when EU leaders scrapped plans to outline a possible deal at a summit the following day. This came after Brexit secretary Dominic Raab refused to sign off an agreement on the Irish border.

Despite its assurances that no deal is “unlikely”, the government clearly believes it is a realistic possibility, … READ MORE ...

Make Cloud Computing a Routine

Computers no longer take up as much space they used to. With smaller pieces of hardware able to generate the same or higher amount of processing power as previous computer systems, businesses can invest in cloud computing. Cloud computing is a way to manage and store data on a shared network. These systems are not as intimidating technologically as you think. With cloud computing, you can leave the hardware and technical work to someone else. Your team can then access projects and work files from anywhere, thereby facilitating collaboration in your business.

If a worst-case scenario affects your business, including the loss of computers or data, then cloud computing is a convenient tool with which you can restore backed up files. The servers running behind cloud software are routinely backing up your data. You can then retrieve your data from the cloud storage and continue your business without interruptions. If you require more storage space, you can purchase more as necessary. Access can be easily transferred via … READ MORE ...

Top Business Process Management Tips For Businesses

Don’t Focus on Perceived Problems

It can be easy to deploy a piece of management software in order to take care of some perceived problem that you believe exists. However, this can end up being more detrimental than you believe. Any Business Process Management project should be used based only on the facts that are presented to you. If issues do arise, it is important that you verify these issues before the project begins. By examining the problem first instead of jumping headfirst into creating a solution, then you can objectively see what needs to be taken care of. Is the problem related to customer complaints, or operational costs? Don’t make a bad situation worse, and strictly stick to the facts.
