Automotive Division Overview

TCF Services' Automotive division is focused on delivering the Automotive Competitive Investment Scheme (ACIS), a multi-million dollar program which commenced in 2000, and extended through to 2015/16.

ACIS provides grants for investment in new and capitalized plant, equipment, information technology and research and development by Australia's motor vehicle industry. Eligible claimants include: motor vehicle producers; automotive component producers; automotive machine tool producers; and automotive service providers.

TCF Services work hand-in-hand with clients to develop quarterly returns, and prepare and lodge claims for ACIS grants that align with the emphasis of the Scheme to create local firms that are capable of making the jump to the next level of global automotive technology which will appear in models produced after 2015.

From our Sydney and Melbourne offices, we deliver a nation-wide training and consulting service that ensures quarterly returns are prepared in accordance with legislative requirements, are verified against rigorous internal knowledge of eligibility criteria, and have a quickly paid and maximized grant outcome.

Whilst the heart of the Automotive Division is the ACIS work, we also provide consulting services for the R&D Tax Offset and R&D Concession schemes for clients with R&D expenditure beyond the limits of ACIS eligibility, and many clients also use our Equipment Finance and Cashflow Finance services.
