In the United Kingdom, companies in the automotive industry can claim Research and Development (R&D) tax credits for a wide range of activities related to the design, development, and production of vehicles and vehicle components.

It’s worth noting that In addition to the R&D tax credits, there are other government schemes that can help support and encourage innovation in the automotive industry, such as the Advanced Propulsion Centre (APC) and the Faraday Challenge. These schemes provide funding and support for companies working on new technologies related to electric vehicles and other advanced propulsion systems.

Some examples of eligible activities include:

Developing new or improved engine technologies
Developing new or improved vehicle safety systems
Developing new or improved vehicle emissions control systems
Developing new or improved vehicle manufacturing processes
Developing new or improved materials for use in vehicles
Designing and testing new vehicle components or systems
Developing new or improved vehicle software systems

The logistics industry can claim Research and Development (R&D) tax credits for a wide range of activities related to the design, development, and implementation of logistics systems, processes and technologies.

To qualify for R&D tax credits, a company must be a UK-based business and the R&D activities must be related to the company’s trade. The R&D must also seek to achieve an advance in overall knowledge or capability in a field of science or technology through the resolution of scientific or technological uncertainty.

Some examples of eligible activities include:

Developing new or improved logistics software systems
Developing new or improved warehouse management systems
Developing new or improved transportation routing and scheduling systems
Developing new or improved logistics network design
Developing new or improved packaging and handling systems
Developing new or improved supply chain management systems
Developing new or improved tracking and monitoring systems for logistics operations

The amount of credit a company can claim depends on the size of the company and the nature of the R&D activities. For small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), the credit is worth up to 33% of the R&D costs. For large companies, the credit is worth up to 10% of the R&D costs.

One of few agents in the field who deliver everything as promised. Professionalism and service at the top end of the scale, faultless delivery with exceptional results. Looking forward to working with this team again in future, a huge thank you to my dedicated handler within the team; Mr Naim Mahmud, theres not a single hurdle that he could not overcome, he is confident in every manner. Highly recommended!

Nicola and Bertie were of great assistance throughout the whole process. All queries were answered in "layman's terms" and they were up front about everything and no hidden charges. Received our payment a few weeks ago accompanied by relevant paperwork. Very professional all round. Would highly recommend.

Tahira, put us at ease straight away. Really professional, friendly and took away all the hard work from us by contacting our accountants so we didn’t have to. I was worried the process would be difficult and stressful but Tahira handled everything so that I could focus on my business. I couldn’t recommend her enough.

From start to finish, Isaac has been absolutely fantastic. Isaac made the R & D claim effortless and easy which is exactly what we needed. The nursery saved almost £70,000.00. That has given us a real competitive advantage and the opportunity to reinvest it into the business. We are genuinely over the moon with the service. I would strongly recommend getting in contact with Isaac! Thank you, Rorie.

Absolutely over the moon! I knew I would get some return working with RDI Solutions but I didn’t expect this much. Amazing service and I got my payout quicker than expected. It was a smooth and pleasurable service from beginning to end. Thank you so much! Would gladly recommend their services.

Tahira, at RDI was brilliant from the start of the process until the check was in the bank. Knowledgeable, competent and very professional. I cant praise her and the team highly enough. The result for my company was incredible. I would certainly have no hesitation in recommending. Tahira, and the team at RDI.
