Accounting publication names Washington metro area firm to their prestigious list

Rockville, MD, September 24, 2010/ -- Aronson & Company, a nationally ranked top 100 accounting and consulting firm was named as one of INSIDE Public Accounting’s top 25 Best of the Best National Accounting Firms for the eighth consecutive year. This award, which recognizes the best managed firms in America, follows the publication’s recent announcement of their top 100 firms based on revenue, on which A&C placed as well.

“Best of the Best firms represent the top 25 accounting firms in the nation. Each firm demonstrates the right combination of vision, planning and execution to deliver superior performance,” says Michael Platt, principal of the Platt Group and publisher of INSIDE Public Accounting. “Firms that earn this designation represent the best of what the accounting profession has to offer,” Platt says.

Inside Public Accounting selects 25 firms out of over 300 competitors to populate their Best of the Best list. Once the study is completed, firms are ranked in 24 categories with the top points given to those who excel in areas that include: revenue growth, profitability, human resources and staff issues, management of resources, rewards to owners, and more.  The 2010 Best of the Best and Best of the Best Honorable Mention firms range in size from $3 million to $169 million. Some firms are heavily focused on audits, some on tax, and several derive up to 40% of their revenues from non-traditional services.

“The success of these firms is a tribute to their leadership. Their stellar performance defies economic trends by recognizing the long-term goals that are needed in order to sustain growth through both prosperous times and down times,” says Kelly Platt, principal of the Platt Group and publisher of INSIDE Public Accounting. “We salute all of these firms and recognize their overall management strategies as models that the profession can be quite proud of,” she says.
