Keiter’s strategic adoption of AI in accounting
Keiter Managing Partner Gary Wallace was recently featured in a Virginia Business article, “Accounting firms increasingly embrace AI tools,” highlighting how artificial intelligence is reshaping the accounting profession across Virginia.
Summary and Excerpts
As firms navigate rapid technological change, Wallace shared Keiter’s thoughtful and strategic approach to adopting AI – balancing innovation with the Firm’s longstanding commitment to accuracy, security, and client service.
Wallace emphasized that while AI presents exciting opportunities, it must be implemented responsibly.
Wallace noted that before leveraging AI, the Firm is asking the question. “How do we best use these tools to help our team be able to work better but also help our clients reach better decisions?”
Beyond operational efficiencies, Wallace also pointed to AI’s potential impact on the future of the profession.
“…embracing these tools helps the firm to remain competitive in attracting clients and prospective employees.
If we were still sitting around using 10-key calculators and ledger paper, no one would want to come work for us,” Wallace says. “People are intrigued and interested about these new tools.”
As the accounting industry continues to evolve, Keiter remains committed to leveraging emerging technologies in a way that enhances both the employee and client experience – while staying grounded in the Firm’s core values of collaboration, innovation, relationships, and accountability.
