R&D tax relief case studies

Source Advisors makes sure that your innovation is recognised and receives the full credit due.

Here are a few examples of recent success stories showing how our expertise in the area of Research and Development tax relief helped our clients to optimise their innovation.

Our experience with Source Advisors has been fantastic. Having previously worked with another specialist within the industry, I can honestly say that Source Advisors go above and beyond for their clients and the results speak for themselves.

Angus Elphinstone CEO and Founder, AnyVan Ltd

Source Advisors’ skilled IP professionals have subsequently identified patentable elements around process developments which will ultimately enable us to broaden the scope of revenues that go into our annual Patent Box claim.

RL HartshornManaging Director, HL Plastics Limited

Identifying exactly what qualifies as R&D is not easy. We’d claimed ourselves twice before, but the experts almost doubled the value of what we received.

Stanley WilsonCEO, Urban Cottage Industries

My words of advice would be; you may think that only scientific or manufacturing type companies qualify for R&D tax credits but that couldn’t be further from the truth.

Martyn JuppCEO, Veriserv Ltd

…we were able to “relax”, knowing their Technical Consultant's knowledge gave us the best chance for successful IPO patent grant…

Clive Paul Managing Director, TES Ltd

I liked the way my Technical Consultant understood our company’s activities and which ones qualified for the R&D scheme.

Paul RileyManaging Director, Computer Controlled Solutions Ltd

…extremely efficient and able Technical Consultant who asked the relevant questions…

Sue GoodchildManaging Director, Goodchild Marine

Source Advisors’ investigative work is impressively thorough and in depth. I would highly recommend them.

Paul Mousley Project Manager, Quartz Technical Services Ltd

Being able to claim money back from the taxman for work we did to advance our internal manufacturing processes as well as the end customer experience is very welcome.
