ES & Associates delivers audit-defensible operational verification for IRA 45X tax credits, domestic content compliance, and Beginning of Construction (BOC) requirements.

We are NOT CPAs or tax preparers. We provide the operational evidence that tax advisors, PE investors, and lenders need BEFORE credits are claimed or deals close.

**What We Verify:**
• 45X Advanced Manufacturing Production Credit eligibility and volume documentation
• Domestic Content (DC) > 45% compliance for bonus credits (2025+ requirements)
• Beginning of Construction (BOC) proof for grandfathered ITC/PTC rates
• Foreign Entity of Concern (FEOC) supply chain screening
• Manufacturing capacity audits (actual vs. claimed throughput)
• Made in USA / FTC origin claim compliance

**Industries Served:**
Battery manufacturing (LFP, sodium-ion, solid-state), solar components, advanced materials, critical minerals processing, PE/VC portfolio companies, energy project developers

**Results:**
$200M+ in IRA credits verified/defended (avg $2.3M per engagement)

**Experience:**
20+ years: U.S. production commissioning, international manufacturing infrastructure, Fortune 100 operational advisory, U.S. Commerce Department trade delegations

**Why Clients Choose Us:**
We map production flows, verify supply chains, and document domestic content down to the component level—delivering the operational proof that survives IRS audits, PE due diligence, and lender scrutiny.
