The State of Texas targets unpaid tax dollars
The Comptroller of Public Accounts (CPA), the government agency responsible for revenue management and compliance in the State of Texas, first deployed SPSS in 2003 for audit selection. Now, it uses SPSS' predictive analytics software to score and prioritize delinquent accounts based on debt size and likelihood to pay, based on dozens of behavioral indicators. SPSS enables all levels of government to analyze and identify patterns in multiple data sources—such as taxpayer profiles, previous filings, call center notes, and audit history—and share these findings graphically across geographic and jurisdictional boundaries. As a result, agencies can anticipate taxpayer behaviors and events and maximize limited resources.
Discover how Texas maximizes returns on delinquent tax accounts.
