Identifying all eligible expenditure

With Built Intelligence’s claim covering two accounting periods, CFO Laura Parsonage wanted a provider with the technical expertise to ensure the company was claiming for all eligible expenditure. GrantTree’s technical consultants worked closely with the company’s CTO to identify all of the company’s qualifying projects while steering clear of routine, unqualifying activity.

Instilling claim confidence

Built Intelligence chose GrantTree because it knew the claims we prepared would be extremely robust, minimising the company’s chance of facing an HMRC enquiry. Laura said: “The thoroughness with which they approached both the technical and financial aspects of our claim gave us the reassurance we would meet all of HMRC’s legislative requirements.”

Seamless claim experience

GrantTree integrated with Built Intelligence’s internal accounting system, allowing our financial consultants to extract the necessary financial data directly, saving the company time. Our clear process kept claim preparation moving at pace, avoiding unnecessary pressure or anxiety about the two-year submission deadline. Laura said: “GrantTree’s management of the claim preparation process was excellent. Their clear and straightforward process ensured we submitted our claim well before the deadline.”
