Many capital investments are approved without a complete view of available tax credits, incentives, and deductions. The result is a higher after-tax cost than necessary, with value often missed out across provincial and federal deductions and tax credits.
These gaps are not always visible at the time of decision making. Once key factors such as timing, asset classification, and eligibility requirements are missed, the opportunity to optimize value is significantly reduced or lost altogether.
BDO’s Capital Asset Optimization team brings tax, engineering, and credit and incentive planning together before capital is committed. This allows your business to align with programs that support your investments and capture the full incentive stack, improving cash flow and supporting more informed capital decisions, while those decisions can still be influenced.
A full incentives stack behind strategic capital planning
Organizations often evaluate incentives in isolation. Greater value is achieved when programs align against the same capital plan, with tax and engineering expertise applied simultaneously and upstream of the investment decision—when timing, asset classification, and stacking can still be designed.

Let’s do more together: Act before your next investment decision is finalized
Once capital is committed, key decisions that determine the value of incentives cannot be revisited. If you are planning a capital investment in the next 12 months, the right time to assess incentives is before the purchase order or construction contract is signed.
