Murray, EVP Finance, The Procaccianti GroupThe Belknap White Group is comprised of various companies, operating in multiple states and ranging in size from small to large businesses. blum has been our chosen accounting firm for over 20 years, handling a variety of our business needs from annual audits and tax returns, to assistance with company acquisitions and strategic planning. The team that blum has assembled is not only knowledgeable, timely and efficient on the audit and tax side, which quite frankly we expect, they are our trusted business partners. They go far beyond what one would expect of their accounting firm.
- Gary Doster, CFO, The Belknap White GroupThe audit was quite thorough, and as expected, there were lots of documents and spreadsheets that we had to produce from the archives, but they were all so patient with us as we slowly fulfilled their requests. There were many teaching moments for myself and my staff during this period. For many processes and procedures that we were using because “that’s the way we always did it” we were shown better and easier ways to get the job done. As seasoned as our business office staff were, we were all learning new things under blum’s guidance and suggestions. That learning continued throughout the rest of the year as we frequently called blum for consultations and advice. Someone always got back to us quickly with the answers to our problems.
