Jacqui Stoneman's Testimonial
Peter Centa, MD of Howe Green
Howe Green was very happy to receive a cheque from HMRC and was pleased at how painless the submission had been when working with the expert team at Fiscale.
"Our first experience of R&D Tax Credit several years ago was not the best. We came away believing that the time gathering the information and submitting it to HMRC was simply not worth the return. Having worked with Fiscale we now understand that the scheme is not as complex or cumbersome as we first believed. The level of knowledge that they have is very impressive. Stephen has the knack of translating HMRC jargon into plain English which simplifies the whole process.
It has taken Stephen a while to convince us that what we do is Research and Development as nearly every day we are developing products to solve problems for our clients. I guess having been so close to it for over 30 years we just see product development as all in a day's work!
Thanks to Fiscale we are now starting to recognise the elements of our development work that are eligible for R&D Tax Credits. We are anticipating that future claims will be much higher and much easier to process as a result of the systems and processes that we are starting to implement as a result of working with Fiscale."

The conclusion
Fiscale is continuing to work alongside Howe Green and is currently looking at the submission of a second claim as even more projects that are eligible for R&D Tax Credit have been identified.
Since 1983 Howe Green has researched, developed and manufactured access solutions for their clients. New product development is an everyday occurrence and the "can do" mentality is what sets the company apart from the competition. The ability to recoup a significant proportion of the expenditure on R&D will enable the company to fund further investment in the future.
