The EMC SR&ED Advantage

Over $120 Million in new claims, $58 Million already approved,  additional $62 million pending! Resulting in a potential $40 million  in cash & tax credits for members. 150 members now benefiting from long-term SR&ED initiatives with unlimited potential!

What an incredible advantage you have as a member of EMC! As a result of the nature of EMC, which is to learn and share with pride, we have been able to develop a comprehensive understanding of the SR&ED world.


Not Claiming - WHY?
Claiming and Not Getting all you're entitled to - WHY?
 

For over two years EMC's SR&ED Team have been talking and visiting with literally hundreds of EMC members. Many of these members had never claimed before so we were able to get an understanding of the perceived barriers. Many of our members are already claiming and from these members we were able to glean incredible insight into the 'realities' of the program.

To Benchmark Member Success EMC asks the following questions:

  • What is your experience with SR&ED?
  • What types of product or process projects are you working on?
  • Do your Customers ask for product changes that require development work?
  • Are you working on fixing Quality issues or process/ Equipment reliability/capability/yield issues? 

Why would two companies from the same industry and of the same size and technical ability have incredibly different results?

Through what we have learned and being able to share, our members that have taken advantage of the EMC Advantage have received millions of dollars in cash from their SR&ED Tax Claims.

What Members Are Saying...

"If you ever need me to speak to someone in regards to the benefits of both EMC and SR&ED I would be more than happy to.  I understand the resistance at times, especially since we get bombarded with calls from people offering "deals". It becomes hard to weed them out, which, is yet another benefit of EMC, you weed them out." Katrina Litchfield, Ace Rivet

"EMC has been instrumental in making it easy for Multivans to file SR&ED claims, and we have since been working with EMC's approved vendor, Northbridge Consulting for the last two fiscal years.They understand our business, maximize the size of our claims, and work with the Canada Revenue Agency to help us through audits and understanding the status of outstanding claims. They also minimize the amount of time that I need to spend making SR&ED claims.  I am extremely satisfied, and have renewed my contract with Northbridge for the next 3 years. Thank you EMC!" Steve Schafer, Multivans Inc.
