The best way to obtain full value from the SR&ED program is to ensure that your company has a SR&ED mindset.  Here are some tips from Pierre Pinet on how to instil a SR&ED mindset in your company:
  • Review the SR&ED program with affected employees at the beginning of the fiscal year in order to reiterate its importance to the company’s well-being
  • Make SR&ED success a key performance measure for the business; challenge key employees to work throughout the year on the claim
  • Establish convenient repositories for pertinent documentation
  • Review new or ongoing projects every month to identify SR&ED eligibility.
