IPA 100 firm Schellman & Company LLC of Tampa, Fla. (FY20 net revenue of $77.4 million), has acquired Scott Perry CPA of Bellevue, Wash.
Founded by its namesake Scott Perry, the firm focuses on digital certificate authority audits, which are also known as WebTrust for Certification Authorities. As part of the deal, Perry will join Schellman as a principal and will oversee the launch of the firm’s new practice in crypto and digital trust services.
“Since our foundation, Schellman has always striven to forge our own niche in the technology compliance industry, and Scott has done something similar,” says Schellman CEO Avani Desai. “We share that idea for a unique approach, as well as a mutual passion for compliance, and so this could not make for a better fit. Our collaboration will now allow us to continue helping our clients communicate trust to their customers and stakeholders in a newly enhanced way.”
