What The Bonadio Group does

The Bonadio Group (Bonadio & Co. LLP) is a privately held, New York-based national accounting and advisory firm founded in 1978. It is structured around four core service lines — Advisory & Consulting, Assurance, Small Business Advisory, and Tax — supported by specialized units including FoxPointe Solutions (cybersecurity and IT risk management), Corporate Finance (sell-side M&A advisory and Quality of Earnings), Transportation Advisory Services, and a tiered Outsource Accounting & Finance managed-service offering. The firm delivers through eleven offices across New York, Texas, Vermont, Florida, and Delaware, and leverages a Moore North America membership to access 650+ offices across 100+ countries for cross-border engagements, particularly US/Canada tax matters.

The technology stack is built on integrations with third-party cloud platforms (Sage Intacct, Bill.com, QuickBooks Online) wrapped inside the OSAF subscription tiers (Smart Start, Essentials, Emerging, CFO+). Service delivery is augmented by AI for automated data entry and transaction processing within outsourced accounting, ethical-hacking and penetration testing in cybersecurity, and predictive analytics in advisory engagements. Internal client-facing infrastructure includes the 'myPortal' secure client portal with SafeSend Returns for tax return delivery, and a content engine built around industry research (e.g., the 2026 Construction & Real Estate State of the Industry Study), webinars, and the TBG Talks podcast.

Revenue is generated primarily through professional service fees across audit, tax, advisory, and managed-service engagements, with pricing quote-based and tiered monthly subscriptions for OSAF. Go-to-market is sales-led via direct RFPs, relationship management, and a hybrid digital/in-person content engine. Customer mix spans nine industry verticals — Construction & Real Estate, Emerging Industries, Financial Services, Healthcare Services, Human Services, Manufacturing & Distribution, Private Wealth, Public Sector & Not-for-Profit, and Service Providers — with notable clients including Ronald McDonald House Charities, Ithaca Hummus, Gehring-Tricot Corporation, Veterans Outreach Center, and Erie County DSS. Notable inorganic growth includes the acquisitions of Ganer + Ganer (2021), Howard LLP (2023), and Dalle Accounting (2025).
