Our credentials

We are proud of our work and what our clients say about us.  Here are a few examples: Innovative fire detection/suppression & protection company Bright R&D stepped in to help this SME company with its R&D claims following HMRC enquiries being opened that the prior advisor struggled to deal with. Angela worked proactively with both the company and HMRC to agree two years claims despite some challenges around poor historic project documentation and specific information. A revised methodology was agreed to ensure claims are robust going forward, to be applied to future years’ claims.

“Angela very quickly understood our business and the many new technologies we had developed. Her fast pick up and understanding of the technology was truly amazing. She then summarised our sometimes complicated briefs so that even a non-technical person could understand. Her enthusiasm and passion for the project at hand was exemplary.” Operations and Technical Director

Automotive OEM Angela has worked collaboratively with the business for a number of years, supporting both R&D and Patent box claims and agreeing claims with HMRC. Claims have continued to be enhanced in a number of areas, securing cash value in excess of £1m and a number of process efficiencies and documentation improvements implemented. HMRC recently met with Bright R&D and the business to review the claims and not only agreed them, but allowed additional costs to be claimed for 2015 – 2017 inclusive.

“Angela’s strengths are her commercial focus and pragmatic way of finding solutions. Other advisors tend to dwell more on the problems and obstacles, but I like Angela’s solution finding mindset.” OEM Head of Tax

Innovative Medtech business Bright R&D helped to bring efficiencies to the company’s claims in respect of its Medtech devices for specialist diagnostic tests.

“With you at the helm of our R&D Tax Credit claim, the journey was seamless and smooth. You delivered every stage with clarity and pragmatism. More than that the whole exercise was navigated and concluded in record time. Thank you.” Giovanna Forte, CEO, Forte Medical Limited

Professional advisory firm Bright R&D developed and delivered some bespoke patent box training for the team to help them to spot opportunities for their clients.

“Thank you for the training session yesterday Angela! I found it very informative and your passion for the subject is refreshing.”

Start up – global insurance market We are helping to prepare and submit the company’s first 2 years’ R&D claims under the SME regime, including collation of costs and project documentation – year 1 cash was repaid to the company within 30 days of submission with no questions asked.

“As a dynamic and entrepreneurial company Impendulo always looks for like minded people and partners to work with. We received great support from Angela Browning, Bright R&D every step of the way through the complex R&D tax credit process. It is refreshing to get professional advice which meets the highest compliance standards at a fee range which is not only affordable but flexible to meet both our needs. We will look forward to our continued success in the future.” Chris James, Managing Director, Impendulo

Global technology company Bright R&D Limited assisted with a complex HMRC enquiry, supporting the accountancy firm that had submitted the original claim:

“Angela rapidly understood our range of complex technologies. She’s highly skilled at absorbing large volumes of detail on the technology, then summarising in a clear and concise way. She has an energy and passion for the task at hand, and delivers in timely and reliable manner.” Chief Technology Officer
