Why Choose Us

The art of accounting cannot flourish in a culture dominated by a Large Firm Business Model. This is primarily due to the need for the artful accountant to be highly experienced and imaginative. In the Large Firm Business Model, the person closest to the data is the least experienced, lowest cost accountant. This makes great sense for the science of accounting (e.g., auditing is a commodity), but no sense for the art of accounting (e.g., auditing brings opportunity for adding value).

The point at which the opportunity to add value is the greatest is that point at which experience and skill intersect with transactional data.
