- 10 times faster processing and data analysis;

- the level of ensuring the confidentiality of database information will increase by 100%, the ability to protect against external threats, as well as safe and reliable data storage, will expand;

- the volume of the information base will increase to 1 Petabyte.

The implementation of Business Intelligence and Big Data technologies has been introduced as one of the main objectives of the Strategy.

As a result of the introduction of these technologies:

- expand systems for big data processing and analysis;

- the level of “shadow turnover” will decrease and the tax base will increase;

- an opportunity is created to study market conditions as a result of processing data generated through centralized systems, analyzing the market prices of goods and services;

- there will be an opportunity to engage in the processing and analysis of data from 50-60 percent of employees.

Transfer of tax systems information systems to the full complex of a single platform:

- optimizes data entry, collection, analysis systems;

- prevent the load on the database;

- facilitate the process of taxpayers reporting 5-7 times;

An increase in the number of electronic public services provided to taxpayers and their mobile applications will reduce (reduce) the human factor in relations with tax system employees by 60 percent. This will not only prevent corruption, but also dramatically reduce paperwork.

This resolution also provides for an increase in the number of information exchange systems of tax authorities with other ministries and departments. These measures will serve to expand the tax base due to the speed of receipt, the quality of analysis of a large amount of information received by tax authorities from taxpayers in electronic form.
