As a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ (AICPA) Government Audit Quality Center and Employee Benefit Plan Audit Quality Centers, we are committed to adhering to the highest quality standards by voluntarily agreeing to the membership requirements, which include designating a partner responsible for the quality of our nonprofit audit practice, establishing quality control programs, performing annual internal inspection procedures, and making our peer review report findings publicly available.
In addition, every three years, Tate & Tryon is required to undergo an outside peer review of the quality control policies and procedures within the Firm’s accounting and auditing practices. This outside peer review—performed every three years by an independent certified public accountant and approved by the AICPA—provides assurance to the Firm and our clients that we continue to conform to the high standards of quality control set forth by the AICPA.
Since its inception, Tate & Tryon has successfully participated in the peer review process and has received the highest quality reports on our compliance with professional standards. The high standard of excellence employed in our audits is demonstrated in our most recent quality review in which the peer reviewer had this to say:

"As I stated, your firm is the best of all the firms that I have ever peer reviewed.
I have peer reviewed many great firms, but Tate & Tryon is at the top... Your firm has attained this level years ago. It is very difficult to rise to the top, but it is even harder to stay there. Everyone in your firm should be very proud of their accomplishments. The partners are great examples of the tone at the top theory.
All of you set the examples by your actions."
Harvey I. Milhiser, P.A. / Certified Public Accountant
