Full R&D Tax Claim Preparation
Our goal is to ensure you get the maximum benefit allowed by the R&D Tax Relief scheme with the minimum effort. Our robust and rigorous technology-driven process ensures that we are able to identify your maximum R&D claim - we don't simply ask you how much R&D you think you have.
Our Level of Service
Our existing clients range from banks to start-ups. We treat each claim that we deal with as a project in its own right, and whether you are a bank or a start-up, one of our directors will be assigned to you as your main point of contact throughout the claim process. You will always be able to call a single person who will have full oversight and knowledge of your claim process at any point.
Process Overview
We break each project down into an initial assessment phase which is followed by the detailed claim preparation. If once we carry out an initial assessment of your R&D activities, we determine that it is not worthwhile to proceed, such as for example, if your R&D work does not qualify under the legislation, we will stop and there is absolutely no cost to your company.
Once we proceed past the initial assessment stage, our process splits into technology and financial streams. We interview your key technology staff to understand the nature of their work and guide them in determining which areas are eligible for R&D tax relief and to what extent.
In parallel with this, we work with you to extract your financial data and perform a mapping exercise from the financial aspects to the technology aspects, to quantify the eligible parts of your R&D projects.
Both the technology qualification and financial quantification get combined into a R&D Project support pack that shows both why every item claimed for is justifiable under the legislation, as well as the detailed process that has been followed in making the claim. Following your review and approval, this gets sent to HMRC whom we liaise with to ensure that the claim is paid promptly.
