Manufacturing and Distribution
Essential Components of Peak Performance
Our Manufacturing Services Group works with businesses in diverse industries including aerospace, building materials, electronic devices, packaging, printing, and publishing, food processing, specialty sporting goods, retail fixtures, and more, to provide audit and tax services as well as specialized consulting.
Even if your financial management needs are straightforward, maximizing profits and minimizing your tax burden require creative thinking and deep knowledge of the relevant laws and procedures. The complexity of state and local tax codes can obscure the many incentives available to manufacturers. Because of our strong regional experience, we know where to look for over-reported taxes, missed tax incentives and omitted tax credits. Our tax practice also includes estate and income tax planning, international taxes, real estate taxes, and mergers and acquisitions assistance.
Green Manufacturing
It's no secret that green manufacturing helps the planet. For manufacturers, going green not only provides a way to help preserve the environment and give them something to tout to potential customers, it can also offer ways to potentially save on taxes. Steve Day, a shareholder at Clark Nuber has written an article titled "Green Manufacturing helps the planet and saves on taxes" for the Portland Business Journal.
