How we work
How We Help You Succeed
Strategic Grant Planning
Finding Funding Opportunity: We look at federal and provincial grant databases to find programmes for your business. Eligibility & Suitability Check: Not all programmes are a match. We assess your business profile, costs, timing, and strategic goals to make sure you meet the criteria before you invest time in an application. Customised Grant Strategy: Once eligible opportunities are identified, we make a strategy. This includes grants to apply for, supporting documentation, and how to align your project for success.
Application & Compliance Support
Application Preparation: We prepare or assist you to prepare the grant applications: writing a proposal, gathering evidence, creating budgets and timelines, and ensuring your submission is successful. Submission & Follow-Up: We handle submission, monitor deadlines, and liaise as needed with the funding body. After submission, we help track progress and prepare responses to queries. Post-Award Compliance & Reporting: If you receive funding, there are often reporting obligations. We guide you through project implementation, cost reporting, audit readiness, and ensuring you meet all conditions.
Growth & Optimisation
Incentive & Tax Credit Integration: Beyond grants, many businesses qualify for tax credits, incentives and rebates. We help you integrate these with grants for maximum benefit. Strategic Growth Advisory: We don’t just help you get funding, we help you use it wisely. We advise how to align the financial boost with your business strategy to ensure sustainable growth. Ongoing Monitoring & New Opportunities: Grant programmes evolve. We stay on the lookout for new incentives you may be eligible for and alert you proactively, so you never miss out. Risk-Reduction & Compliance Assurance: Grant funding comes with risk of non-compliance or missed deadlines. Our expertise reduces that risk and gives you peace of mind.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to what clients ask us most about government grants & consultancy. Still stuck? Send us the question.
What types of funding can Canadian businesses access?
The Government of Canada offers grants, contributions and incentives for business innovation, training, clean-technology, export support, research and more.
How do I know if my business is eligible?
Eligibility depends on factors like your industry, size, project type, location, and whether you meet the specific programme’s criteria. We review these with you.
What is the difference between a grant and a contribution?
A grant is typically a payment based on eligibility and no direct goods/services expected in return. A contribution may require you to deliver a project, report outcomes or match funding.
How long does the application process take?
It depends on the programme. It may take weeks to months from preparation to decision. Starting early gives you the best chance.
Do I have to repay the funding?
Grants generally do not need to be repaid, but you must comply with the terms. Contributions may have more conditions. It’s important to understand the obligations ahead of time.
What happens after I receive funding?
You must often submit progress reports, financial documentation and meet project milestones. We help you stay compliant.
Can I apply to multiple grants at once?
As long as you meet eligibility and ensure you’re not double-claiming the same costs across programmes. We help you coordinate.
How much does it cost to work with your consultancy?
We offer a clear fee structure tailored to your project size and complexity. We’ll discuss cost upfront in your strategy session.
What size businesses do you work with?
We work with startups, SMEs, established companies and not-for-profits in Canada looking to access government funding for growth-oriented projects.
Why choose Bestax instead of doing it myself?
Tackling grant applications alone can be time-consuming and uncertain. Our expertise increases your chances of success, saves time and minimises risk.
