Led by Iain Butler, our R&D Tax Credits team have a combined 30 years’ experience working to support clients with their claims. They also possess strong technical expertise, having spent 25 years in the field themselves as engineers, software developers, and industrial scientists. A key aspect of preparing any R&D claim is working with those responsible for the eligible projects, as well as the finance function. Our team’s technical background allows them to bridge the gap between your R&D functions and your finance function. Taking the time to truly understand your organisation’s goals, they’ll translate this into what reliefs are available, and help you prepare the claim.
The R&D tax credits scheme might be a standalone incentive, but a robust claim is dependent on understanding accounting, VAT, and corporate tax issues and mistakes can creep in. As part of the wider Buzzacott Corporate teams, we’re able to pull on the expertise of the whole firm when needed. And if you have wider corporate tax questions, financing and investment decisions to make, or you need outsourced business services – we can pull together a solution that suits your business.
Our approach, unlike many others in the industry, is human-led, and tech-enabled. While technological advancements can support the claims process, it is crucial that we get to know your team and your business on a human level – supporting you to build a robust claim and providing you with the peace of mind that your claim will be defendable if HMRC make any enquiries into it.
Our methodology for preparing claims has transparency and accuracy at its core. We’ll have open and honest conversations with you to understand the work you’ve been undertaking, and to understand what will – and won’t – qualify. We tailor our approach to our clients, providing you with a bespoke solution fitted to your organisation’s needs to ensure you get the best possible outcome for your innovation.
Alongside our core R&D tax credit offering, we are also able to offer support on the following innovation incentives:
We have worked with Buzzacott for two years now and we are extremely impressed with the level of care, attention and service they provide. Primarily, they have provided us with R&D claim preparation expertise. Buzzacott’s knowledge of our business and what we do is exceptional and provides us with extreme confidence that the R&D claims we produce are robust, accurate and complete.
The Buzzacott R&D team are the best we have ever worked with. They are efficient, communicative, proactive, and always achieve our tight deadlines.
What has impressed us the most is their holistic approach; they are able to look at the bigger picture and on numerous occasions have successfully identified issues outside of the R&D remit and provided expert advice and solutions to overcome the problem.
In summary, we cannot recommend Buzzacott enough.
