August 1, 2025
From local beginnings to a global leader, BPM has been named CalCPA’s Firm of the Year for 2025 in the Large Firm Category. BPM was selected for this prestigious recognition based on our bold global growth, leadership in innovation, and unwavering commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging — hallmarks of our Because People Matter brand promise.
“This recognition validates our belief that when you put people first, both clients and colleagues, extraordinary growth follows,” said David Jorgensen, Regional Partner in Charge of the South Coast Region. “From our California beginnings to our current global footprint, we’ve never lost sight of the relationships and values that define who we are. This award belongs to our entire team worldwide and the clients who trust us with their success.”
BPM is focused on business innovation in the financial services space, as growth and modernization are a part of our California DNA. This award recognizes our commitment to delivering cutting-edge solutions that provide quality service to clients and not just keep pace with change but lead it.
“This award reflects our successful strategy of scaling California’s culture of innovation and inclusion to markets worldwide,” said Andre Shevchuck, Regional Partner in Charge of the Bay Area Region. “Our Bay Area roots provide the foundation for our global vision, and we’re exporting California’s approach to business: forward-thinking, diverse, and always focused on positive impact.”
