Case study

US-based mid-size construction and engineering contractor

The client is a mid-size construction and engineering contractor of choice for building the USA’s mission critical projects.

For more than 115 years, the client has been synonymous with high quality work on high stakes construction projects. Now in its 4th generation of ownership, the client has evolved into one of the top global contractors serving the mission of the U.S. federal government.

The client challenge

The US-based company needed to address the complexities of establishing operations in Poland, following the successful launch of its business in Italy. The organisation faced several critical challenges in structuring its expansion from both a tax and legal standpoint. Key considerations included understanding the local tax obligations, optimising the employment of personnel and evaluating the feasibility of deploying US-based employees in Poland. Furthermore, the company assessed whether the host country offered any tax incentives, particularly given its role in delivering secure environmental, infrastructure and emergency response services to the US armed forces. These issues presented significant hurdles as the company strived to ensure compliance and operational efficiency in its international expansion.

The solution

To support the client in overcoming these challenges, Nexia Advicero provided comprehensive tax structuring, legal and compliance assistance tailored to the Polish market, leveraging the expertise of member firms across multiple jurisdictions, especially CohnReznick in the USA. Our advisory services have ensured that the legal setup in Poland aligns with the company’s planned activities, taking into account its existing international structure and prior collaborations with the Nexia network. Additionally, Nexia Advicero identified optimal strategies to secure a favourable tax position in Poland, maximising the use of available tax reliefs to support the company’s operations. These solutions ensured that the client was well-positioned to expand its presence in Poland while minimising risks and enhancing operational efficiency.

Value

Nexia was able to offer the US client professional support all over the word, including in Poland, while cooperating with our esteemed colleagues from other Nexia member firms. By supporting the client to choose the right mixture of business considerations in Poland, from assessing their obligations to registering and carrying out ongoing CIT/VAT/PIT obligations, Nexia Advicero was able to fulfil client expectations. The deep understanding of the client’s global operations, through global network knowledge sharing, enabled Nexia to offer tailored solutions that align with the client’s broader business strategy.
