Firm Services
BMWL operates with a depth and breadth of service far exceeding the norm in the accounting profession. We provide a wide array of professional auditing, tax, advisory, and related services catered to each type of organization we serve, described further below.
Our firm is nationally recognized for its thought leadership in nonprofit audit, assurance, and tax matters. We have actively engaged in shaping national policy and advocating for the nonprofit sector. Our expertise has also been sought by members of Congress, state legislators, FASB staff, and national associations.
Many clients come to BMWL after realizing their previous CPA firm can no longer meet their organization’s growing demands, especially as their financial operations become more complex. Our team's extensive knowledge and experience in the nonprofit sector allow us to identify risks, uncover opportunities, and provide strategic guidance that empowers organizations to thrive in times of growth and complexity.
BMWL's services help you strengthen your financial foundation so you can focus on what matters most: carrying out your mission with peace of mind about your financial health and reputation.
We are very pleased with BMWL services as they have helped us to get to the next level in our organization's accounting practices, internal controls, and very especially in our treatment of tax matters that affect our organization.- Ed Leon, Director of Accounting Services • Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranches Inc.

Given our use of advanced technologies, geography is not an obstacle for us in serving nonprofit organizations based anywhere in the United States. In fact, we currently serve clients with offices and operations in a growing number of states across the country…from Florida to Oregon, and lots of places in between! We also serve a number of US-based nonprofit organizations with all or part of their operations in other countries. For larger organizations that require audits or other services that entail on-site work, our team gladly travels to your location as needed and our fixed fees typically include all domestic travel and incidental costs. For smaller organizations requiring audit or assurance services or for organizations that require tax services, outsourced accounting services, or advisory services, we can typically provide such services from our offices without the need for travel, using our state-of-the art technologies.

A variety of factors will affect the cost of an audit. The size, nature, and complexity of your organization’s activities are the most significant factors. However, other factors such as the quality of your internal accounting and financial reporting activities are also very relevant. If you would like to have a “ball-park” idea of the fee for an audit of your organization’s financial statements, give us a call. When you first call, we will get some very preliminary information from you. Then, one of our CPAs will follow up and ask you a few questions about your organization and its activities. We are often able to provide a rough fee estimate based on the information we obtain in that phone call from one of our CPAs. Our pricing objective is to be very competitive while taking into consideration the very significant and distinctive advantages our team offers your organization.

The ideal way to determine which of our services best fits your organization’s needs is to talk directly with a member of our team. We offer an array of services including, but not limited to, advisory services, internal control assessments, tax compliance assessments, and full audits. The size of your organization is only one factor to consider. We have a number of smaller clients that require audits for a variety of reasons. However, in our publications and in national speaking engagements, our firm’s leaders have stated publicly that they do not recommend an audit of an organization’s financial statements until the organization has annual revenues of about $3 million or more due to cost-effectiveness considerations (unless, of course, the organization is required to have one as a matter of law or contractual obligation). Accordingly, we generally provide audit and assurance services (including compilations and reviews) to organizations with annual revenues of $3 million or more.
