Grantica was founded to innovate tax relief claims. To develop a system that works for both businesses and HMRC.
The R&D tax relief scheme in the UK is one of very few government schemes without a consistent methodology for assessment. Our GRDF Assessment Methodology aims to bring objectivity to the claim process, supporting both businesses and HMRC in achieving accurate assessments.
The Grantica R&D Framework was originally developed by Grantica in September 2022 as a structured eight-step methodology to assess and prepare UK R&D tax relief claims for submission to HMRC.
Following shifts in HMRC’s compliance processes and legislative changes to the UK’s R&D tax relief scheme, Grantica has issued the GRDF 2.0 Toolkit that provides a systematic assessment methodology to standardise the evaluation of UK R&D tax relief claims.
Technical professionals with both a licence and regulatory knowledge must qualify projects and activities.
Competent technical professionals in the claimant’s business often do not have the regulatory knowledge, and similarly HMRC compliance officers often do not have the scientific or technological knowledge required. At Grantica, we have licensed technical professionals with regulatory knowledge assess whether a project seeks an advance in a field of science or technology.
By offering a tangible Product clients can rely on, new value is added for businesses seeking to claim tax relief.
Traditionally tax relief specialists serve clients by offering advice and preparing their client’s claims. We believe that a rigorous compliance audit, that is certified by licensed professionals in an Assessment Report, just like with audited accounts, increases the quality and credibility of claims.
It’s time for a renewed approach to claiming tax relief.
Innovation funding is for every business. When you have the right approach, you can claim more than you think.
Many companies have to guess their way through the applications for R&D tax refunds. And most accountants and R&D firms need more in-house expertise to help companies claim the most complete credit.
With HMRC taking a closer look at claims, an approved method is the only way forward.
You must be sure everything on your application qualifies as research. If you are going to maximise your claim—without taking chances—you need guidance from experts who know how to create a credible claim.
The Grantica R&D Framework™ sets a new standard.
Grantica’s HMRC-compliant strategy for R&D claims and technical reports is unique. Our chartered engineers and tax advisors handle everything for you, offering a professional opinion and complete transparency at every step.
It’s time for a smarter, more secure approach to innovation funding.
