CPA Peer Review – Birmingham (AL)

AICPA Peer Review – Birmingham (AL)

Birmingham and Alabama CPA firms are required to undergo a firm peer review every three years – a requirement mandated by both the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) and state licensing agencies.

A peer review is an independent examination of a firm’s accounting and auditing practices by another CPA firm. The purpose is to build client confidence, enhance professional development, identify and mitigate risks, and to satisfy compliance requirements. The reviewer examines ethical requirements, human resources, client acceptance procedures and engagement performance and monitoring. Since the results of peer reviews are publicly available, working with an experienced provider who will carefully examine operations is critical.

About the Birmingham Business Community

The Birmingham business community is shaped by a legacy of industrial strength, a modern shift toward diversified economic sectors, and a growing emphasis on innovation and entrepreneurship. Once known as a center for steel and iron production, Birmingham has evolved into a regional hub for healthcare, finance, advanced manufacturing, and professional services. The presence of the University of Alabama at Birmingham and its renowned medical center anchors a large portion of the local economy, supporting biomedical research, healthcare startups, and a significant number of high-skill jobs. Financial services also play a major role, with major institutions such as Regions Financial headquartered in the city. Birmingham has made strides in developing a supportive environment for technology firms, creative companies, and small business growth, with revitalized districts like Railroad Park and the Innovation Depot serving as magnets for startups and collaborative ventures. Manufacturing remains important, particularly in metals, automotive suppliers, and aerospace components, reflecting Alabama’s broader industrial economy. The city benefits from a central location in the Southeast, strong logistics links, and a lower cost of doing business that continues to attract companies and talent.
