Big changes are here—and they mean real money back for architecture firms that act fast.

This session breaks down two powerful federal incentives you may already qualify for:
- The 179D Energy Efficient Commercial Building Deduction
- The Section 41 R&D Tax Credit
With the recent passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill, R&D costs can once again be fully expensed—and 179D now comes with a firm expiration date. That means the window to claim incentives for past work and plan smart for upcoming projects is officially open—but it won’t stay that way for long.
Whether you design sustainable buildings, solve technical challenges, or use custom software in your process, you could be eligible for significant cash flow opportunities.
Join us to learn how to:
- Uncover hidden value in the work you’re already doing
- Revisit past projects for potential refunds
- Plan with your CPA before year-end to maximize what’s yours
This isn’t a tax lecture—it’s a playbook for turning innovation into dollars.
