Cobalt Design is thrilled to announce our official recognition as a Research Service Provider! This exciting news will provide new opportunities for our clients and underscores our commitment to excellence in innovation.

What Is a Research Service Provider?

Put simply, a Research Service Provider (RSP) is a business that has been officially recognised by the Australian Department of Industry, Science and Resources as a Research and Development (R&D) service provider. To achieve this status, an RSP must undergo an in-depth evaluation process to demonstrate their R&D proficiency, experience and track record in designated areas including design, mechanical engineering, mechatronics, electronics and advanced manufacturing.

What Does This Mean for You?

Only good things! As an RSP, Cobalt Design can now offer clients a powerful advantage: access to financial assistance through government programs like the R&D Tax Incentive. This program allows companies to claim a tax offset for qualifying R&D activities completed by a registered RSP.

This translates to real savings that you can reinvest back into your innovation pipeline, allowing you to explore more new avenues, experiment with bolder ideas, and ultimately gain a crucial edge over your competitors.

Confidence Through Independent Validation

Earning this RSP involved a rigorous evaluation of Cobalt Design’s experience, infrastructure, and capacity to deliver high-quality R&D outcomes. This stringent assessment validates our expertise and confirms that we meet the high standards set by the department.

In essence, this status serves as an independent verification of our commitment to R&D excellence. You can now be confident that you’re partnering with a team that possesses the proven skills and resources to deliver exceptional results for your R&D projects.

Bolstering Our Commitment to Quality

This achievement further reinforces Cobalt Design’s dedication to continuous improvement – strengthening and expanding our capabilities to develop the best possible outcomes for our clients. Our recent development of a medical-class Quality Management System (QMS) exemplifies this commitment, by taking on some of the strictest quality standards available in the product development profession.
