Developing Web Software with SR&ED in Mind

In today’s digital landscape, businesses require cutting-edge web solutions that not only meet their operational needs but also drive innovation. At BrainyYack, we specialize in web development with a strong focus on the Scientific Research & Experimental Development (SR&ED) Tax Incentive Program. This approach allows our clients to benefit from valuable tax credits while pushing the boundaries of technology.

What is SR&ED?

The Scientific Research & Experimental Development (SR&ED) Tax Incentive Program, administered by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), is designed to support businesses investing in research and development (R&D). It provides tax credits for eligible work that seeks to create new knowledge or improve existing technologies through systematic investigation.

SR&ED Eligibility in Web Development

Not all software development qualifies for SR&ED, but projects that involve technological advancement, experimentation, and overcoming uncertainty may be eligible. The key criteria for eligibility include:

• Technological Advancement – The project must seek to develop new or improved technology beyond standard development practices.

• Technological Uncertainty – The work must involve challenges that cannot be resolved with existing knowledge.

• Systematic Investigation – The process must follow a structured approach, including hypothesis formulation, testing, and analysis.
