State and Local Governments

The strength of the Moss Adams’ commitment to serving governments of all types and sizes shows in our decades of service. More than 80 governmental entities count on our team to provide a wide variety of audit and assurance and business consulting services, due in part to our demonstrated leadership and dedication to providing our expertise in the public sector.

Our government auditors not only specialize in serving the sector, but are heavily active with many national and regional oversight and policy-setting entities. Their involvement puts us near the epicenter of the activity in the oversight arena, a clear advantage that differentiates us from other firms. Our government audit team includes committee and task force members from the following groups:

  • AICPA State and Local Government Expert Panel
  • AICPA Government Audit Quality Center Executive Committee
  • GFOA Special Review Committee
  • GASB Financial Resources Measurement Task Force
  • GASB Comprehensive Implementation Guide Task Force
  • AICPA State & Local Government Audit Guide Task Force
  • Washington State Board of Accountancy
  • Washington Society of CPAs Government Accounting & Auditing Committee
  • Oregon Society of CPAs Governmental Accounting & Auditing Strategic Interest Team
  • Oregon Board of Accountancy CPE Committee
  • California Society of CPAs Government Conference Planning Committee
  • National Association of State Boards of Accountancy Board of Directors

When we serve our government clients, we work to assemble an engagement team with the specialized knowledge and expertise needed to get the job done. In addition to our government auditors, we also tap into our deep pool of experienced practitioners in several other related industry and service groups—such as telecommunications, utilities, construction, real estate, health care, and employee benefit services.
