Wipfli is committed to quality, fostering continuous improvement and innovation, and learning from our associates and the impact we have on our clients’ businesses.

Commitment to quality

We recognize the preeminent position the CPA profession plays in helping ensure the proper functioning of capital markets and the key role we play for our clients as a trusted outside advisor. Our first value has always been integrity — a key element of trust. With this focus, Wipfli is committed to quality and continuous improvement in our delivery of professional services to meet the needs of our profession and those we serve.

Our focus on integrity and commitment to quality starts with “tone at the top” and the attention that Wipfli’s senior leadership pays to these foundations of practice. All leaders at Wipfli are dedicated to displaying integrity in their interactions and helping ensure that quality is a focus in everything we do.

 

Wipfli’s pillars of quality

 

Professional performance

We hold ourselves to the highest standards of integrity, objectivity, competence and due care in all engagements. Our leadership fosters an environment that promotes high-quality professional performance.

Risk management

Our commitment to risk management, quality and excellence resonates from the very top. Our managing partner, board of directors and senior leadership team are the driving force behind our unwavering dedication, which has shaped the culture at every level of Wipfli.

Training

We deliver continuous education and accreditation support to our associates throughout the year. Our culture is centered on continuous improvement and learning, helping ensure that we are always equipped to better serve our clients.

Rigor

We are dedicated to rigorous self-inspection and improvement. In addition, our annual customer experience and associate experience studies monitor our performance, and we use those results to generate actionable insights.

Quality assurance

Annual internal inspection and independent peer review conducted under the umbrella of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Center for Audit Quality is an important window into the quality of our assurance practice, as is regular inspection by other regulators, including the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB). Wipfli actively participates with the CPA profession in a variety of ways to help advance shared goals related to quality, trust and service delivery.

Our underlying commitment to quality is foundational to our ability to achieve our business objectives. Across our practice and service lines, our goal is to help ensure that our clients are interacting with quality professionals and a process that promotes quality, trust and results. We invest heavily in people, processes and technology to accomplish these objectives. We are proud of our commitment to quality.
