As a fellow member of the Edinburgh chamber, I would like to offer a free review and appraisal in respect of identifying R&D & innovation implemented within your business. There are no upfront fees and additionally, we offer a 15% reduction on our normal service rate, to members should a claim progress, fee only payable on successful pay out.

A bit about the Governments Tax Credit Scheme: The scheme was introduced by the UK Government in 2000 for small and medium enterprises (SMEs), with a separate scheme for large companies launched in 2002. Any company carrying out Innovation in their field, is likely to qualify for the relief. The definitions of eligible R&D and eligible costs are reasonably broad, and eligible R&D activities can take place across a wide range of company operations. The scheme also allows you to make claim on two previous years R&D activities.

Is your company a UK Registered company eligible to pay Corporation Tax? If so, have you:

• In the last 3 years, has your business improved any processes, services, materials, or devices?
• In the last 3 years, has your company developed any software or IT solutions (by your internal staff or by external contractors?)
• Have you ever manufactured or modified any products in house?
• Have you invested time and money into failed projects or developed products that have never launched?
• Have you ever outsourced any product design?
• Have you ever purchased an off-the shelf item and modified it to a better standard?
• PAYE staff
