Peer Review

Public accounting firms that render attest services are required to undergo a Peer Review once every three years. The Peer Review is conducted by an independent accounting firm of similar size and experience with the outcome being a report issued on the reviewed firm.

The AICPA has two practice monitoring programs to enable firms to meet their state licensing, federal regulatory and/or AICPA membership requirements: firms required to be registered and inspected by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) enroll in the Center for Public Company Audit Firms Peer Review Program (CPCAF PRP). All other firms may enroll in either the CPCAF PRP or the AICPA Peer Review Program (PRP). Both programs are designed to review and evaluate those portions of a firm's accounting and auditing practice that are not inspected by the PCAOB (i.e., the non-SEC issuer practice).

Delap LLP has been in the Peer Review program since 1981 and was a member of the Private Companies Practice Section prior its merger with Symonds, Evans & Company on June 1, 2009. Peer Review Report

Following the merger of the two firms, Delap LLP will become a member of the Center for Public Company Audit Firms Peer Review Program, (CPCAF PRP). We are proud of the longstanding history of quality shared by both firms and our collective success with the peer review process.
