SEC
Many small, public companies have recently experienced disappointment with the
level and quality of service they have been receiving from their accounting and
law firms. Much of this stems from the post-Enron crisis, which is requiring
larger professional service firms to devote more resources to their larger, higher
risk and recently acquired clients, at the expense of their smaller clients.
With the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act becoming law and the issuance of
regulations related to its enactment, companies will experience an increase in
the time and cost associated with compliance. Our approach to client service
revolves around the goal of finding solutions to your company's varied and unique
professional service needs. We work as a team with your management and outside
advisors, such as lawyers and bankers, to achieve the goals you have set for
your organization. Benefits of Choosing BPM SEC Services
We believe that we are the only non-Big Four firm in the Bay Area that is able
to offer such a depth of knowledge in so many service areas, which equals greater
convenience and satisfaction for you.
Compliance issues and policies for public companies are becoming an even greater
concern, but this does not mean you have to break your budget or sacrifice quality
for the cost of these services.
Additionally we offer:
• Paperless Audit
• Local decision making, and
• Value pricing
Audit firms serving public companies are aggressively increasing audit fees
in response to scope changes and new regulatory requirements. Recent articles
in The Wall Street Journal and other publications indicate that many Big Four
and national firms are looking to increase their core audit fees 10-20% to
cover increasing audit costs. BPM continues to deliver quality at value pricing.
