R&D Tax Credits for Architects

R&D tax credits for architects

The R&D Tax Credit is the biggest tax credit available to U.S. businesses, yet also one of the most underutilized. This is particularly true in the architectural industry. Architectural firms working with construction industry companies continually develop novel approaches to designing and building more efficient and safer structures, often incorporating a range of R&D activities while they innovate. But they aren’t always getting the R&D financial incentives they earn through such efforts.

Architectural industry

We know that architecture plays a larger role in our lives than most people realize. The structure and design of a building shapes how we experience life at home, at work, and in our communities. But it’s also heavily involved in sustainable building construction, renewable energy sources, manufacturing plants, and integrates with engineering sectors. Because of this, architecture is a constantly evolving industry with innovation at the core of each everyday activity.

Many architecture firms are unaware that their work can qualify as research and development, and as such, they are not claiming the R&D tax relief they could be entitled to. Based on your existing foundation of development and ingenuity, we’re here to assist you in identifying the tax incentives that your company may be entitled to, helping you to build a stronger and more successful business.

We assist architectural companies of all shapes and sizes in claiming tax relief for all qualifying R&D activity, helping to build stronger businesses across the United States.
