Wednesday, November 2, 2016
Vancouver, BC, November 2, 2016--(T-Net)--Wolrige Mahon LLP, one of the largest independent public accounting firms in British Columbia, and an independent member of Baker Tilly International, announced today that it is expanding its service offering to include a technology and risk advisory practice.
This expansion complements an already robust portfolio of service offerings which includes traditional accounting, audit, tax, and a wide range of business advisory services including corporate finance, insolvency, valuation and litigation support.
Leading the new Technology & Risk Advisory Group are Wolrige Mahon partners Paul Schmidt and Killian Ruby.
“Our industry continues to move away from a traditional compliance-based historical approach to providing services. With the rapid advancement of technology, clients are increasingly seeking forward-looking business advice,” says Schmidt.
Ruby adds, “These advancements in technology have also created additional requirements for clients to address their business needs and how their business is conducted, including reevaluating internal controls, process automation and related security requirements.”
Wolrige Mahon's Technology & Risk Advisory Group is also joined by Vaclav Vincalek as its Managing Director of Technology Advisory Services. Vaclav is a leading IT authority in web security and technology solutions, and a principal strategist working with mid-size and enterprise level organizations to build a stronger IT relationship and true alignment of business interests with the utilization of technology.
“Companies of all sizes across all industries have a tremendous opportunity to propel their growth by fine-tuning the relationship between their business and technology. The right amount of investment, in the right areas, at the right time can be transformational to a business,” says Vincalek.
“Too much focus is placed on technology brands rather than on understanding what really needs to be accomplished. We're changing the conversation to bring the focus back onto the business and then see where it makes sense for technology to play a part.”
Vaclav has worked with a broad range of clientele spanning key industry sectors including healthcare, insurance, banking, and government including local, provincial, and federal agencies.
The Technology & Risk Advisory Group will provide an evolving portfolio of technology-related and risk advisory services, including:
The expansion of Wolrige Mahon's advisory services demonstrates our commitment to providing our valued clients with access to the resources and expertise they need to address their growing business needs.
