Companies may quality when they encounter technical uncertainly and use a systemic process of testing, analysis, and iteration to resolve it.

Testing & Iteration

Technical Learning

The solution was not readily apparent or involves significant uncertainly. 
Different approaches

uncertainly. 

The industry is only the context. The technical work determines whether the project may quality. 

SR&ED Is About Technical Challenges, Not Industry Labels 

SR&ED eligibility is determined by the technical work being performed, not by the industry a company operates in. While certain industries claim more SR&ED credits than others, qualifying work can occur anywhere technical uncertainty exists and systematic investigation is required. 

Companies Often Qualify When They Are:

  • Developing new products or processes  
  • Improving existing technologies  
  • Solving technical performance limitations  
  • Testing new materials or formulations  
  • Overcoming integration or scalability challenges  
  • Conducting structured experimentation to resolve technical uncertainty 

Industries We Commonly Support 

Our experience spans a broad range of sectors including software development, manufacturing, automation, food production, medical technology, environmental innovation, agriculture, industrial services, and advanced engineering. While each industry faces different technical challenges, the common thread is the pursuit of solutions where the outcome could not be determined in advance. 

Even if your industry is not represented above, your work may still qualify if technical uncertainty and experimentation were involved. 

If your business sector is not listed above, contact us and we can help narrow down your R&D activities.

Not Sure Where Your Work Fits?

Many eligible projects don’t fall neatly into a single category. If you’re testing, refining, developing, or overcoming technical challenges, we can help determine whether SR&ED opportunities may exist within your business.
