Founded in 1986, Perkins & Company is an accounting and advisory firm serving clients across Oregon and Washington. The firm is known for its long-standing client relationships, industry experience, and people-focused culture supporting privately held businesses, nonprofits, and professional services organizations. For Perkins’ existing clients, this transition is centered on continuity, working with the same professionals and service teams they know and trust.
“Joining CLA represents an important step for our firm,” said Jared Holum, CEO of Perkins & Company. “This decision was made thoughtfully and from a position of strength, with a focus on continuing to serve our clients at the level they expect. Our relationships, culture, and local presence remain at the center of everything we do.”
