Academic Background:
Hi, I'm Derek Tarko.
Having experience in mechanical engineering, elecronics and robotics, I take pride in assisting companies with their Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) technical descriptions.
I enjoy using my engineering background to analyze, review and resolve technical concepts and projects while using my past business experience to understand the relationship, needs, and neccessities associated with the management and financial aspects of successful product development.
BILL EASTON, B.A. Sc., P.ENG, C.A. beaston@meuk.net
Hi, I'm Bill!
I have attained a B.A.Sc., P.Eng., and a C.A. My work experience includes both engineering and financial experience, with a strong focus on SR&ED development.
I have had 15 years in SR&ED claims for clients in many industries. Here at MEUK Corporation, I employ my engineering and financial backgrounds to assist in preparing SR&ED Tax Credit claims for our clients. I work directly with the staff and management team at each business with the goals of making the claim process both efficient and successful. I assist the team in recognizing eligible claims, optimally documenting each creative 'knowledge' solution and the related SR&ED costs.

Hi, I’m John Little.
During my working life I have been very fortunate to acquire broad managerial experience in industry, manufacturing, information technology, R&D, finance and risk management.
At Canada Post, H.A. Simons (Engineering), Johnson Diagnosys (paper production optimization software) and through various real estate projects I had an excellent exposure to project and property management. At H.A. Simons I picked up an in-depth understanding of contractual and product liability and the application of project risk assessment techniques while preparing project contracts valued up to $175 million in the design-build and joint venture bidding processes.
I also gained an excellent financial background in the investment (Greenshields-RBC Dominion Securities) and venture capital sectors, a thorough understanding of project management practices and a certificate in risk management
For the last 15 years I have been actively involved in the high tech sector as an independent consultant with a number of Montreal startup companies such as Wavesat Inc (wireless telecommunications-amplifiers), MicroSlate (pen-based laptop computers) and Solabs Inc (start-up, electronic audit software for pharmaceuticals to FDA regulations 21 CFR – 11,). I spent 3 years as Project Manager (systems implementation and contract administration) with Johnson Diagnosys Inc (paper machine optimization software), a start up company I helped set up. More recently I worked in the energy sector with industrial energy management consultant Opnor Inc of Montreal in addition to the preparation of SR&ED tax credit claims for BDC (bank) clients and others.
In addition to my fluency in English and French, I believe my project, technical, and financial risk management skills can help MEUK customers, especially in Quebec and northern New Brunswick, make the most of their R&D work.
