The RealRED approach

Understand your work.
Bring clarity to your claim.

The challenge is not always finding more work to claim. It is distinguishing potentially eligible activities from standard engineering, then documenting them at the right level of detail.

Founded by Massimo Gasparello, a former SR&ED director at PwC in Montréal, Conseil RealRED combines boutique attention with depth of expertise. We explain our reasoning, address uncertainties candidly, and move the file forward with your team.

For the right programs.

Software, SaaS, video games, telecommunications, electronics and industrial automation: we take the time to understand your work.

01 /

Research & development

SR&ED & CRIC

Identify potentially eligible work, structure the technical rationale, and connect activities to the costs claimed. Preparation coordinated with your accounting team, without unnecessary granularity.

How we help

Focused technical interviews, assessment of existing evidence, technical and financial preparation, forms, and support through reviews.

02 /

Multimedia & video games

Multimedia tax credits

Support tailored to studios and production teams. We assess titles, activities and relevant costs, then coordinate the documentation and applicable application steps.

How we help

We work with multinational AAA game studios in Quebec, bringing senior expertise in multimedia tax credits and their interaction with SR&ED. That experience informs our assessment of other provincial programs, with careful attention to each jurisdiction’s specific rules.

03 /

E-business & innovation

CDAE-IA · CRIC · DICI

Your activities and growth may involve several programs. We help determine which deserve a closer assessment and organize the information needed.

How we help

Assessment of CDAE-IA for e-business, CRIC for research and pre-commercialization, and DICI for commercialization of innovations. Applicability is assessed against your activities and fiscal year.

04 /

Audit reviews & information requests

Support & representation

An information request deserves a clear, structured response. We examine the questions raised, assess the documentation, and support your discussions with CRA and Revenu Québec.
