Grant and Business Improvement Opportunities


Business and Grants

body text: Research And Development Tax Incentives

We have found that most companies underestimate their actual R&D costs, especially if direct and indirect expenses aren't properly considered. Costs can include:

The cost of having your team on the project

Contractors conducting R&D on your behalf

Direct costs associated with building and testing your prototype

Additional costs required for your R&D activities

business-rd_xxpeif.png

The Research and Development (R&D) Tax Incentive is the Australian government's key mechanism for fueling industry investment in R&D. The incentive offers companies a way to invest in R&D by easing some of the initial growing pains and  associated costs through a tax offset of up to 43.5% on eligible expenditure.

Over 14,000 businesses successfully claimed the tax offset in the last financial year

Since 2013, the incentive has provided $13.8 billion to Australian businesses

The grant is eligibility-based, not competitive - if you qualify, the tax offset is yours

The incentive offers peace of mind by minimising the risk associated with investing in research and development

Gain a competitive edge and place yourself at the forefront of your industry by exploring innovative technologies, processes, products, and services

Up to a 43.5% tax offset on eligible R&D expenditure

Research And Development Tax Incentives

Sprout Scientific is here to help you determine exactly what’s included in your R&D effort and minimise your investment cost. Our process involves pairing your project with our skilled consultants who are well-versed in guiding you through the rebate-claims process.

We want to connect innovative businesses that are doing good with game-changing rebates. The best part? We only charge success fees. Ready to dive in?

It's time to explore the tax offests available to you. You may be eligible for Australian Government funding under the Research and Development Tax Incentive Scheme.

The EMDG scheme supports businesses as they establish and expand their export promotional activities. However, not all activities are eligible. Here are some of the most common eligible expenses:

Make connections, give presentations, and promote your product or service

Third-party marketers who can assist with foreign marketing strategies and make overseas networking connections

Business-related flights and accommodation for up to 21 days

business-export_d9nt76.png

The Export Market Development Grant (EMDG) scheme is an Australian Government-funded program that supports small and medium businesses as they commence or scale-up export activities. The EMDG encourages businesses to expand their promotional activities into unknown markets by providing a funding safety-net of up to $770,000 over the course of 8 years, which is representative of the time it takes to establish a successful overseas exporting business.

Since 2011, nearly 30,000 businesses have received a total of $1.2 billion in export funds

The EMDG offers up to $770,000 in funding for your export activities over the course of 8 years

This is an eligibility based grant - if you are pre-approved, you will receive funding as long as you meet the criteria and incur eligible expenses

3 grant tiers and up to 8 years of funding support businesses through all export stages and mitigate the risk of commencing and conducting export activities 

Explore new markets and localities to expand the reach and success of your innovative products and services

Cash back for spend on eligible overseas promotional activities

Export Market Development Grants

Sprout Scientific has extensive experience with the Export Market Development Grant scheme. We can help you determine exactly how your funds should be allocated to ensure you are compliant with all EMDG regulations, and we continue to support your business through the annual milestone submissions. At Sprout Scientific, we’re here to help your business take the next step. Ready to get started?

Tenders typically have very specific requirements, and the tendering-body will be assessing applications with a fine-toothed comb to ensure the best company is chosen for the job. Here are a few aspects to keep in mind when writing a tender: 

Can you deliver the required services and prove your capacity and capabilities?

 Have you answered each question in its entirety and addressed key requirements?

Are your documents formatted as specified?

What will the competition offer and how can you set yourself apart?

F_WHITE_CARD.png

Tender responses and bids are submitted to companies requesting knowledge, goods, or services from other organisations, like yours! They can be quite competitive, meaning your application must present a fine balance between quality and affordability. Winning a tender can catalyse the expansion of your business' repertoire and secure steady, long-term income.

Tenders provide an opportunity to secure big clients that are likely to sign long-term contracts

Expand your portfolio, experience level, and business prospects

Winning a tender will help you gain recognition in your field as a reliable and economical choice 

If you win a tender, you secure guaranteed pay over an extended period of time

Winning a tender boosts your chances of winning another, as long as you can demonstrate success

Submit the perfect proposal for contract-based work

Bookkeeping is a critical business practice whether you are a small or large organisation. Keeping updated records and staying on top of all relevant financial documents will provide valuable insights for your business, so it’s a good idea to have a dedicated bookkeeper who understands the required documentation and software. Here are some common questions we ask our clients:

Do you know which business and financial documents are necessary for proper bookkeeping?

Do you have a robust system for collecting, recording, and organising information?

How often do you create reports and how do you interpret the data?

Do you have strategies in place to make data-driven organisational changes?

T_WHITE_CARD.png

Bookkeeping is the essential practice of recording, organising, and summarising financial transactions through periodic reports to provide data-driven business insights. While proper bookkeeping keeps you two steps ahead, inadequate bookkeeping can leave your business in the dark when it comes to making key decisions.

Accurate bookkeeping allows you to make data-informed business decisions

Consistent recording leads to fewer errors and easier audits

Updated records increase your chances of successful loan applications and investor relationships

When you leave bookkeeping to the professionals, you have more time to focus on what really matters: expanding and improving your business

Take control of your financial records to better understand your business

As your dedicated bookkeeper, Sprout Scientific will work with you to ensure your books stay up-to-date. We also provide regular reports to identify key areas of improvement and growth for your organisation. Proper bookkeeping is the key to a successful, data-driven business.

Conducting a thorough, unbiased business or project analysis is the most advantageous way to kick-start or expand operations. In order to make decisions and create a successful plan, using personalised, relevant data is crucial. This can be a challenging task, and working with a third party can help you develop an objective perspective. Here are four key services Sprout Scientific provides to conduct an impartial, data-based evaluation:

This is often the most important step when structuring a project. We have the tools and experience to devise a realistic, optimised financial plan 

Understanding the gap your business or project fills and how to successfully promote it is crucial for success

Compiling human resource structure, value propositions, a go-to-market strategy, and a timeline provides a comprehensive understanding of the start-up or scale-up capacity

When submitting a grant or tender, additional documents carry a significant amount of weight, so it's important to ensure they are robust and relevant

R_WHITE_CARD.png

If you’re looking to kick-off or expand your business or project, conducting a comprehensive analysis is a crucial step. Analyses provide insights into your human resource capacity, financial position, value proposition, and market state to guide data-driven business decisions and project plans. These documents can then be combined to form a valuable pitch deck for investors and potential business partners and can be redesigned as supporting documentation for future grant and tender applications.

Understanding the market and your competitors provides valuable insights for successful promotion strategies relating to your product or service

Financial modelling provides a clear understanding of your economic standing and assists with budget development 

Conducting business-wide analyses provides a broader understanding of organisational structure and capacity

Analysis data serves as a launching point for new investors and partnerships and provides a reference point for progress evaluation

Developing a project plan provides the opportunity to demonstrate and improve your business's ability to execute projects on a fixed budget and timeline

At Sprout Scientific, we have the tools and expertise to design a cohesive, comprehensive analysis process that works for you. We believe that the organisations and projects with the greatest success prioritise the use and understand the value of internally generated data. We help you use the right data collection and interpretation tools to advise the best strategies and develop strong supporting documentation to ensure your business or project is poised to grow.
