Business description

The company provides a specialised service that enables its clients to maximise innovation funding from various Government schemes, including R&D tax relief, R&D allowances, grants, patent box tax relief, and land remediation tax relief.

With extensive sector knowledge and experience, particularly in healthcare technology and construction, the company is able to provide a more in-depth understanding of the specific requirements of these industries, helping its clients to identify and unlock the financial benefits inherent in their operations.
At present, the company caters to over 250 clients, including several blue-chip organisations, benefiting from a 95% retention rate and client relationships spanning over six years.
The business is being offered for sale to facilitate its expansion under new ownership.
Offers invited.

Highlights

  • An award-winning company with an excellent industry reputation for the quality and professionalism of its services and the added value brought by its knowledgeable team.
  • Has submitted over 800 individual R&D tax claims during its time in operation, none of which have been retracted following a challenge from HMRC, as well as successfully defending many claims even up to first-tier tribunal. 
  • Clients include several well-known organisations run by respected industry professionals, with the calibre of the company’s portfolio increasing the credibility and eligibility of the claims it submits. 
  • Shareholders are willing to remain with the business post-sale, allowing a new owner to benefit from their significant expertise of a range of sectors and facilitate the growth of the company. 
  • Operates from leasehold premises in Central London, with scope to be relocated to any location, should a client prefer.
