BKD Audit, Accounting, & Assurance

Archie's take

BKD Audit, Accounting, & Assurance is best suited for mid-sized to large organizations that require robust, industry-compliant audit and assurance services with a strong emphasis on cybersecurity and regulatory standards. Its standout advantage is the deep expertise and consultative approach of FORVIS, which brings decades of experience and a comprehensive suite of services that go beyond basic compliance—think tailored risk assessments, advanced cybersecurity awareness, and seamless integration with broader financial operations. However, smaller businesses may find the service scope and cost excessive for their needs, and implementation can require significant coordination between internal teams and BKD consultants. Pricing is premium, reflecting the high-touch, high-complexity nature of the offering, so it's best justified for organizations with complex audit, compliance, or cybersecurity requirements.
