Inspired by more than 15 years of first-hand experience guiding clients through Federal and state R&D Tax Credit audit defenses, including field examinations, MITRE reviews, appeals and appeals mediation, the FRED Group’s approach to preparing R&D Tax Credit studies for our clients is to focus on the supporting documentation for the qualifying work, above all else.
Unlike other tax consultants, who often ‘put the cart before the horse’, our experience has taught us that in the eyes of the IRS, the best R&D claim is the one that has the most solid documentation to back up the claim from the outset.
When you become our client, we will work with you to ensure your R&D claim is centered around a complete and comprehensive documentation package designed to satisfy the most current IRS reporting standards.
Our disciplined ‘documentation first’ approach has evolved over time to match the changes in the IRS audit techniques and can eliminate much of the time and expense required to prepare an audit defense.
The results?
A cost-effective yet comprehensive R&D Tax Credit study, minimized costs if your study is selected for an IRS audit and peace of mind for you in knowing that everything in your claim is supported by a well-organized documentation package.
