Acumon Innovation
UK R&D tax relief claims, prepared end to end — and defensible when HMRC asks.
What it does
- Checks the deadlines on day one. A missed claim notification extinguishes the claim outright, so the notification position and the two-year claim window are established before any substantive work — not discovered later.
- Resolves the regime, in segments. A period straddling 1 April 2023 is split and rated on both sides; one straddling 1 April 2024 is not. Company size is aggregated across linked and partner enterprises.
- Ingests the ledger as it actually comes. Upload a trial balance, nominal ledger or payroll export, confirm which column is which once, and the mapping is remembered for next year.
- Records why, not just what. Every conclusion carries its authority, every gate its failing reasons, and every deadline the facts it was computed from.
Before you start
You will need the claimant’s accounting period dates, its group structure if it has one, and someone who can speak to the technology — the competent professional whose judgement the claim rests on.
