Innovation Opportunity Audit
Design SR&ED into Your R&D—Before a Single Experiment Runs
A half-day diagnostic that pinpoints where innovation happens… and where funding is being left on the table.
🛠 What’s Included
🔍 TRIZ Contradiction Analysis + Eligibility Heat Map
We analyze your most challenging technical problems using TRIZ, surfacing hidden contradictions in your system. The output?
A visual “heat map” showing where SR&ED-eligible work already exists—or can be designed in.
📊 Innovation Efficiency Index™
Benchmark your R&D against high-performing teams.
This custom scorecard evaluates your experimentation speed, documentation quality, and eligibility potential—delivering an immediate snapshot of where to optimize.
🧠 Cognitive Bias Hot-Spot Mapping
Uncover decision-making traps—like sunk-cost or status-quo bias—that might be limiting your R&D potential or making your SR&ED claims weaker than they should be.
💰 Refund-Uplift Forecast (Rough Order)
We estimate how much more you could claim with better documentation, sharper hypotheses, and smarter project framing—complete with provincial + federal credit modeling.
💡 Ideal For
✅ Teams unsure which projects qualify
✅ Founders or CTOs who’ve heard “you’re not eligible” but aren’t sure why
✅ Companies who’ve claimed before but feel they’re leaving money behind
✅ Innovation leaders who want to make SR&ED a routine, strategic advantage
