Agile Consulting Group Joins Mi2: A Strategic Move to Boost Kentucky's Metals Manufacturing
Agile Consulting Group, recognized experts in sales tax exemption and compliance, has taken a significant step by joining the Metals Innovation Initiative (Mi2) as a value provider. This partnership is set to deepen their commitment to supporting the thriving metals manufacturing sector in Kentucky.
Kentucky's Thriving Metals Industry
With over 250 metal facilities and a staggering $34 billion footprint in the metals sector, Kentucky is uniquely positioned as a leader in manufacturing. By aligning with Mi2, Agile Consulting Group aims to assist these manufacturers in navigating the complexities of sales and use tax exemptions and improve their compliance strategies. This collaboration strives to ensure that manufacturers can reinvest saved capital back into their operations, workforce development, and innovative practices.
The Role of Mi2
The Metals Innovation Initiative plays a critical role in enhancing Kentucky's metals industry. Their efforts extend beyond tax support; they focus on strengthening the talent pipeline, addressing sustainability challenges, elevating industry visibility, and securing research and development funding among other key areas. By joining Mi2, Agile Consulting Group can leverage these initiatives to further extend its impact on the region.
Empowering Manufacturers with Tax Expertise
Aaron Giles, the Founder and Managing Principal of Agile Consulting Group, expressed enthusiasm over this partnership, stating, "This is a great opportunity for us to build off previous momentum in Kentucky. The state offers unique machinery and equipment exemptions that many manufacturers are unaware of. Our collaboration with Mi2 allows us to work closely with companies committed to efficiency and long-term growth."
In addition to supporting manufacturers with sales and use tax exemptions, Agile Consulting Group recently obtained a private-letter ruling from the Kentucky Department of Revenue, clarifying how manufacturers can recover sales and use tax paid in error. This groundbreaking guidance enables eligible manufacturers to reclaim up to 48 months of overpaid taxes—the implications being substantial if we consider the potential to recover excess taxation on utilities, repair labor, safety supplies, and more.
Our Commitment to Innovation
"The partnership with tax experts like Agile Consulting Group brings invaluable benefits to our industry," remarked a spokesperson for Mi2. The ability to identify overpaid taxes, correct taxation errors, and secure accurate refunds not only puts money back into the businesses of manufacturers but also aids them in making informed financial decisions leading to a more innovative and robust industry.
Moving Forward
As Agile Consulting Group embarks on this journey with Mi2, the focus remains firmly on driving improvements in Kentucky's metals sector. Their unique expertise in navigating tax regulations ensures that local manufacturers can maximize their financial capabilities while fostering innovation and growth in a competitive landscape.
