We are specialists helping technology companies save a substantial amount of money through optimising the R&D and Patent Box tax relief they are entitled to. In the last 6 years alone we have worked with our clients to claim additional tax relief in excess of £110 million.

R&D Tax Relief - How can we help?

We have extensive experience of assisting companies to identify those activities and associated costs that could be included in a claim giving an uplifted tax deductions or a repayment of cash.

Leading our specialism in this area, John Moore has specialised in assisting companies to optimise their claims for R&D tax credits since the inception of the relief in 2000. He has published numerous articles in the taxation press and on the web and lectured on this specialised area of the tax regime. He is a member of HMRC’s R&D Consultative committee helping to ensure that the relief is targeted effectively. John was previously a Director in, and a founding member of, the ground breaking specialist R&D tax Services team at Deloitte.

The legislation and practice in this area is complex, with many traps for the unwary. We believe the key to optimising your relief is using us to combine a deep understanding of the tax legislation, and our experience of how to identify and robustly support the claim for eligible technological and scientific activities being carried out, together with our ability to communicate proactively and effectively with HMRC to ensure that your claims are agreed. Our aim is to give you certainty over your cash flows and future claim methodology.

Our approach, developed over many years of experience, enables us to work together with your finance and technical teams to:

  • Ensure that all potentially eligible activities are identified in your business
  • Develop an appropriate methodology to identify and optimise costs associated with these activities
  • Ensure that your team’s time is used efficiently balancing your resource inputs with expected benefits
  • Prepare robust claim documentation to support the costs and projects claimed
  • Communicate effectively with HMRC to get claims agreed

This is a relief that can provide vital cash flow benefits to technology businesses; can you afford not to optimise your claim process?
