R&D revenue claim

Complete the steps below to make a claim on the following grant:

• R&D Revenue

 

Before starting work on your grant aided project, you should be aware of the grant claim procedure, in particular the Timesheet template and the Claim Form.

 

Step 1 - Review Letter of Offer (i.e. Grant Agreement)
 

Review your Letter of Offer.  This will confirm the Title of the Grant that you were approved, the Project Number of the Grant, the expenditure types and amounts that were approved and the Final Claim Date (i.e. the last date by which all expenditure must be incurred, and a valid claim submitted to Enterprise Ireland).

Step 2 - Download and Review the Grant Claim Documentation
 

1. Timesheet [Excel format] – Each employee should maintain their own timesheet throughout the grant aided‑ project(s).
2. Grant Claim Form - R&D Type Grants [Excel format] - Each Project Number requires a separate Claim Form (except for DTIF).  
3. Progress Report - R&D Type Grants [Word Format] - Each Enterprise Ireland Project Number requires a single, separate Progress Report.  Do not submit more than one Progress Report per Enterprise Ireland Project Number.  You should only report on progress achieved in this claim period. 
4. Director’s Statement [PDF format] – see relevant tab on Grant Claim Form.
5. IAR Template [Word format] -see Step 3 below.
6. Insurance Brokers Statement - only applicable and mandatory for DTIF Facility claims.  

Claims for employee time must be supported with Timesheets in all cases.  Where an electronic time recording system is used, please ensure that it captures the information set out in this template.

It is strongly advised employees commence completing their Timesheet template as soon as work starts on the project.  The timesheet template can cater for up to five concurrent Enterprise Ireland funded projects, each with their own unique Project Number.

Step 3 - Attach Independent Accountants Report if required
 

All claims in respect of grants approved in excess of €400,000 must be certified by an Independent Accountant.

Enterprise Ireland still reserves the right to request a claim to be certified by an Independent Accountant where deemed necessary and may withhold payment of the claim until such request has been complied with.

If your claim requires certification, it must be certified (signed and dated) by an Independent Accountant on their headed paper.

Please download and send the IAR Template to your Independent Accountant for completion. Note that their report should certify the Details (Date of, project number(s) and expenditure amount) as outlined on the Directors Statement relating to claim.

Step 4 - Submit Claim
 

Submit your claim to Enterprise Ireland by email to IndustryGrantClaims@enterprise-ireland.com attaching the required documents 1, 2, 3, & 4 in Step 2 above and document 5 where required.

** Please note that claims are not accepted by post.

• Remember, when emailing, to include your Company Name and Project Number in the Subject Line.
• If you wish to encrypt your files, use your Client Number (CES ID) number as the password.  Your CES ID number can be found in “Schedule A” of your company’s Letter of Offer.

Step 5- What happens next
 

Your claim will be assigned to a Grant Payment Officer who will review the details and seek clarification from you if necessary.

If all is in order the claim will be passed to the inspection team who will be in contact with you.

Upon completion of the inspection, the inspector will instruct the payment officer to pay, defer or disallow the claim depending on their findings.

The payment officer completes the authorisation of your claim and submits a payment request to our Finance Department.

A letter will issue via email from Grant Payments - Industry with details of the approved payment and advising that payment will follow shortly to the Grantee Company’s bank account.
