Our growing Credits & Incentives (C&I) practice, a specialty area within our Tax Advisory group, identifies and secures tax credits and incentives available to clients and their businesses. One way the C&I practice serves our clients is by helping them to obtain Research and Development (R&D) Tax Credits. They do this by identifying potentially qualified R&D activities and expenditures, discussing qualifying research activities with clients' in-house technical professionals, analyzing potentially qualified research expenses (including contract reviews), quantifying the qualified research expenses, calculating the R&D credit, and documenting the analysis. The C&I practice also assists clients with the identification, calculation, and documentation of various temporary tax saving opportunities that are enacted by Congress.
