We offer a comprehensive service:

  • Agreement

    Client onboarding and introductory workshops

  • Complex

    Collation of technical and financial information

    We will lead project-specific discussions on activities identified during the introductory workshops to determine the R&D tax reliefs available to the company. We’ll also discuss the associated expenditure incurred as part of the R&D activities

  • Document

    Preparation of the R&D claim report

    We will prepare a report detailing how the claim meets the eligibility criteria set out by HMRC. This will involve preparing supporting cost schedules and detailed technical narratives of the R&D activities undertaken

  • File

    Submission and management of the finalised R&D report

    We will provide you with the final R&D report for submission to HMRC. If requested, we will submit it on your behalf, manage the approval process, and respond to any queries from HMRC

This entire process usually takes two to six weeks, depending on the size and structure of the business.

Holding the technical and financial discussions in parallel is key to our approach. This ensures clear evidence linking the expenditure claimed to the eligible activities undertaken.
