Closing Thoughts for 2009
By Roman H. Kepczyk, CPA, CITP  (December 18, 2009)  

InfoTech Partners North America, Inc. has much to be thankful for as we approach our Eleventh anniversary. First, I would like to thank all of YOU, our clients and associates, as it is only because of people like you who are excited about making your firms better through the effective use of technology that we have continued to be successful even in such a tough economy.  We hope that we were able to give you useful direction and information and wish you the best going into the 2010 busy season.

Second, we are thankful for being included in some of the leading initiatives promoting the utilization of technology within our industry. I have been fortunate to serve on the Board of the Association for Accounting Administration to oversee both their "Less Paper" and "SaaS" surveys, which are focused on providing you with the most current INDEPENDENT findings on those initiatives that are changing our profession.  Once again, we participated and/or presented at the AICPA Practitioners Symposium, AICPA TECH,  Association for Accounting Administration National Symposium, both of the Growth Partnership's Management Summits, as well as both the CCH/WoltersKluwer and Thomson Reuters 2009 User's Conferences, where real leading edge solutions are formulated and discussed amongst the top accounting firms in the country.  We also attended the Consumer Electronics Show where the bleeding edge of technology is displayed for us to evaluate for its impact on YOUR firms and look forward to doing so again in 2010. This participation keeps us in tune with the most important initiatives happening within firms today.

Third, we are grateful for the recognition the industry has provided us and being listed as one of in INSIDE Public Accounting's Most Recommended Consultants for six straight years. Being recognized as an industry leader has allowed us to be included in rewarding projects such as contributing to both the AICPA and PPC's Management of an Accounting Practice Handbook, as well as being a writer for CCH's Journal of Practice Management, CPA Technology Advisor, and the Association for Accounting Administration's AAA Report, which we feel has a significant impact on educating CPAs about today's leading digital best practices.

Fourth, we are thankful for the adventures and memories that 2009 provided us including biking the Bleuet Trail around Lac St. Jean in Quebec-160 miles in two days, the week in Mission Beach, California, following my boys in their golf outings and the days of roller coaster riding where there was never enough rides.

Finally, I am thankful for my wife Sylvie, our family, and for the many friends I have made along the way that have supported our efforts to make InfoTech Partners North America, Inc. one of the leading CPA Firm technology consulting firms in the country.  Having such friends and family makes it all worthwhile when I look back on all that we have accomplished in the past eleven years, those items that I am able to do for YOU my clients today, and the opportunities I can dream about for all of us in the future.  Accordingly, we will be closing our offices through the New Year to spend time with family.  Have a wonderful Holiday Season.  We look forward to working with you next year!
