    Background

    RDA is a specialist consultancy dedicated to helping innovative companies maximise the value of their R&D activity. The firm supports companies across all sectors in identifying, preparing and submitting R&D tax relief claims that are fully compliant with HMRC regulations. In addition, RDA advises on the protection and commercialisation of intellectual property, ensuring clients safeguard the innovations they create. Through a highly collaborative and tailored approach, RDA works closely with management and technical teams to understand each project in depth. Its “Develop Together” ethos underpins a long-term partnership model designed to foster innovation and growth.

     

    What can you offer to NAA Members?

    RDA delivers specialist advisory services spanning R&D tax relief and intellectual property, helping companies fund innovation, protect valuable IP and realise its commercial potential. The firm supports clients throughout the entire R&D tax relief journey, from initial eligibility assessment through to claim preparation and submission. By combining technical understanding with financial and tax expertise, RDA ensures claims are accurate, clearly articulated and aligned with HMRC expectations.

    In addition to R&D tax advisory, RDA helps clients understand, structure and protect their intellectual property. This includes support around IP identification, ownership and strategic planning, enabling businesses to retain control over their innovations and position them effectively for future growth or investment. RDA also advises on improving internal R&D processes, helping clients capture relevant data, evidence and costs more efficiently to support ongoing claims.

    A key part of RDA’s offering is its highly collaborative working style. Rather than operating as a transactional adviser, RDA partners closely with management and project teams to gain a detailed understanding of each business’s activities and objectives. This tailored, relationship-led approach allows RDA to deliver practical, commercially focused advice that evolves alongside the client’s innovation journey.
