CPA Firms
Audit RFP proposals for CPA firms.
Public bodies and nonprofits select their auditors through competitive RFPs. When several qualified firms respond, the proposal often decides the award.
Why audit proposals are difficult
Most firms that answer an audit RFP are licensed, experienced, and capable. Evaluators separate them on the quality of the response: how well the firm understands the entity, how clearly the approach and timeline are set out, and whether the fee proposal follows the requested schedule exactly.
Many of these solicitations also arrive during busy season, when the partners best placed to write them have the least time.
Who we work with
Small and mid-sized CPA firms responding to cities, counties, school districts, public authorities, and nonprofit organizations, particularly firms without dedicated proposal staff. Engagements are usually multi-year, which makes each award worth considerably more than its first-year fee.
What we prepare
- Transmittal letter and firm qualifications
- Engagement team profiles and relevant government or nonprofit experience
- Audit approach, timeline, and communication plan
- Single audit and federal award experience, where requested
- Peer review, independence, and licensing statements
- A fee proposal narrative that agrees with the requested fee schedule
A finance background
The firm was founded by a finance professional with sixteen years in the field. We understand the language of an audit engagement and the care evaluators expect in the figures. Technical audit content, independence, and professional standards remain the responsibility of your firm's partners, who approve every final version.
Confidentiality
Your fee structure, staffing, and client list stay with your engagement. We do not reuse one firm's content for another, and we do not disclose clients without written permission.
