    If this is a one off then you have a chance, if it is a chronic issue probably not. Whatever flowery language you use, it has to translate to circumstances beyond the client's control. Perhaps a key member of the bookkeeping/accounting department was ill? Was new software installed? Some kind of SNAFU has to be identified and explained.

      I would suggest you look at the IRM Part 20 - in particular 20.1 the Penalty Handbook. Good discussion in the text as to what constitutes reasonable cause and what needs to be addressed in an abatement request.
