 Best Value Fabric: Compliance Optimization


************************************************************************


The Ford Enterprises Group (F-E-G) is a Research & Science non-asset based Fifth Party Logistics (5PL) entity,

that has developed and orchestrates the Strategic Management and Research Technology infusion (SMaRTi™) system.


SMaRTi™ is the best value (merit-based) compliance solution that redefines how operational costs become financial assets.

The F-E-G has positioned itself as not only a certified 5PL logistics provider (CERT-2022031-6621) under NAICS CODE 541614,

but also as a technology-driven, research-centric entity  (UEI/SAM_DLRMJUQKMU45 and D-U-N-S_015991216).


Qualified Research Expense (QRE)


SMaRTi™ automates the application of tax credits, infusing several iterations of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) and

The Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), directly within the invoicing workflow for entities identified by D-U-N-S numbers.   

In doing so, SMaRTi™ converts every dollar of a qualified research expense (QRE) into an equivalent reduction of tax liability.

 
  This “100 percent dollar-for-dollar” mechanism bypasses the traditional hurdles of percentage limitations, caps, or restrictions

imposed in non-5PL integrated systems, catapulting entities to be healthier and happier. In line with IRS regulations,

and GovLaw 95-507. The 5PL SMaRTi™ system is a financial innovation promoting economic and environmental sustainability.


 Good-Housekeeping standards


SMaRTi™ infuses Best Value (merit-based) compliance (QRE) solutions-deploying its R&D value-add,

in collaboration with USPS, Oracle, D&B, SAP, IBM, and RED HAT to ensure Good-Housekeeping standards.


The high-impact process optimizes Global Economic Merit Reforms - initiatives aimed at improving economic systems

on a global scale.  SMaRTi™ mitigates tariff effects by converting QREs into immediate tax credits. This provides

businesses with liquidity to counterbalance the financial strain caused by tariffs, both in the short and long term.


Infusion into the Invoicing Process via SMaRTi®


What differentiates the Ford Enterprises Group’s 5PL approach is its seamless infusion of QRE recognition

directly into the financial workflow, propeling entities to be healthier and happier.


Automated invoice enrichments transform tax-deferred liabilities into dollar-for-dollar 

redeemable tax credits and refund credits per daily operations.


This approach helps businesses achieve zero tax liability, while monetizing liquidity immediately

 per accounts receivables. By transforming tax liabilities into financial assets,

the SMaRTi™ process delivers significant value to stakeholders.


Direct Pay Mechanism:


Traditional systems typically record R&D credits as deferred tax assets or rely on yearly reconciliation,

where aggregation can trigger statutory limits (such as de minimis rules or percentage caps).


F-E-G’s SMaRTi® process, however, effectively transforms each invoice’s QRE data into a tax credit.

The embedded tax credit value is applied immediately against the company’s tax liability.

 

This effectively transforms a deferred tax benefit into immediate liquidity,

allowing companies to use the funds right away for further research or operational needs.


SMaRTi™ Insulates the Originality of the Invoices


  • Invoices ("batch invoices - created and completed") are pulled from the sender,
  • infused with tax incentives ('item-per-item', 'qty-for-qty', 'cost-per-cost') inside patented firewalls,
  • seamlessly embedding compliance infrastructure and financial operations optimization,
  • and pushed back to the sender without altering or disturbing its originality,
  • augmenting 'governance, adherence to standards and visibility'.


 Strategic and Financial Monetized Liquidity Optimization


This streamlined solution is an optimal compliancy tax incentive pull-push process called SMaRTi™,

leverages research, science and technology to optimize invoices. SMaRTi™ originates 

dollar-for-dollar immediate access to financial benefits without waiting for tax refunds.


By automating compliance and financial optimization, businesses can achieve superior value

compared to traditional methods, positioning themselves as leaders in their industry.


Detailed Compliance with IRC Rules and Treasury Regulations


In summary,  Ford Enterprises Group’s SMaRTi® process is a finely tuned mechanism that adheres closely to the

IRC § 41 rules and Treasury Regulations governing qualified research expenses. The SMaRTi™ process not only

ensures regulatory compliance but also advances the principles of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).


By capturing and verifying each research expense, embedding it into the invoicing system through

patented compliance firewalls, and immediately applying the corresponding tax credit on a

100 percent dollar-for-dollar basis, F-E-G provides a transformative approach to tax incentive monetization.


This system not only fosters immediate liquidity and enhanced cash flow but also supports sustained innovation by

directly aligning business expenses with their rightful tax benefits—all while maintaining impeccable regulatory compliance.
