How ADP helps clients like you
Given the outcome of over $50,000 in tax credits, and the minimal amount of my time required, it was a very easy decision for us to pursue the R&D tax credit with ADP. Very smooth and excellent results!

We've seen a 30 percent increase in [screening compliance] in the past year. We're up to about 95 percent screening compliance. As a result, our credits will likely increase substantially as they are processed.
