Your claim, in expert hands

randd is a specialist practice focused exclusively on innovation incentives — not a bolt-on to general accounting. Our multi-disciplinary team of tax advisers, accountants and technical specialists brings senior-level, sector-specific experience, and a comprehensive understanding of how HMRC interprets eligibility and exactly how each submission must be presented.

That focus is why businesses trust us with claims that stand up to scrutiny — and why accountants across the UK partner with us as an extension of their own team.

Why work with randd

Specialists, not generalists. We work on innovation incentives every day — the depth a once-a-year claim can't match.
Senior, sector-specific expertise. Consultants with real depth in your industry identify every qualifying activity.
HMRC-grade rigour. Meticulous, well-evidenced submissions built to be robust and defensible.
Enquiry defence built in. If HMRC asks questions, our team stands behind the claim — even claims we didn't originally prepare.
End to end. Eligibility, the technical write-up and the submission — handled, so your time stays protected.
Alongside your accountant. randd handles the incentives work specifically; your existing adviser keeps the relationship.
