About the Company

Current

Accounting firm alliance providing non-attest services

Crete Professionals Alliance (Crete PA) partners with the non-attest arms of US accounting firms to scale their practices while preserving the local firm’s brand, leadership, and culture. It provides centralized back-office services—like talent, HR, finance, legal/compliance, technology, and business development—through subsidiary entities that handle tax and other non-attest work, while partner CPA firms maintain audit and attest services. Crete PA takes majority stakes in partner firms, with original owners retaining a minority equity position to stay involved. The company differentiates itself by offering large-scale national resources and technology-focused tools, including AI, without forcing firms to lose their brand or leadership, and it aims to grow through acquisitions to build a nationwide accounting platform.
