A steady hand to guide you through whatever SR&ED seas arise...

Ships Helm helps organizations, large and small, prepare Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) claims.  The SR&ED program is one of the largest sources of federal and provincial government funding, providing cash refunds or tax credits between 30% and 70% of the costs involved to develop new or improved products or processes.  Expenses such as wages, materials and subcontractors can qualify. 

Experience and Expertise

Submitting claims since 2004, we know exactly what your claim should emphasize and what it shouldn't.  We are often able to increase the value of a client's SR&ED claim because of our deep experience and  understanding of the criteria needed.  We will help ensure that you get every SR&ED dollar available to you and maximize your R&D investments.

CRA Claim Review Support

With out expertise, we reduce the risk of an audit by excluding activities and expenses that are not eligible.  In the event CRA requests a review of the SR&ED claim, we will work with your team to prepare for the visit, and be with you when it happens to make it as smooth as possible. 

Success Based Fee Structure and Contracts

Quite simply, we don't get paid unless you get paid.  Our general fee structure is based on a % of what your organization recovers from the CRA.  We also believe we need to earn our business every year, and as such no multi year contracts are required. 

Streamline Record Keeping

Make better use of your employees time.  We understand CRA's requirements and can provide recommendations, training and templates to improve your activity tracking system.  This reduces the effort needed, simplifies the process and increases its effectiveness.
