Eight service lines reflect the firm’s investment in a comprehensive suite of advisory capabilities to better serve clients

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Anders announced a formal structure for its advisory practice, with eight service lines organized into two groups: Integrated Operations and Strategy & Transformation. Anders’ advisory practice operates alongside the firm’s tax and audit practices.

The new structure follows several years of investment in Anders’ advisory capabilities through strategic acquisitions, experienced hires and the introduction of new services. Since the firm’s 2022 merger with Summit CPA Group, its Virtual CFO practice has nearly doubled. More recently, Anders added Human Capital, Operations Transformation and Transaction Advisory, further broadening the services available to clients.

The structure reflects the breadth of Anders’ advisory capabilities, with services spanning ongoing operational support and specialized expertise to address business challenges.

Integrated Operations: Ongoing operational services anchored in finance and technology.

• Technology Managed Services: Outsourced and co-managed IT services that combine day-to-day technology management, cybersecurity, and strategic guidance to help businesses operate efficiently, reduce risk, and maximize their technology investments.
• Virtual CFO: Flexible, subscription-based financial leadership for growing businesses that need CFO-level expertise without hiring a full-time CFO, helping them improve financial visibility, make informed decisions, and plan for growth.

Strategy & Transformation: Deep expertise in finance, people, technology and operations.

• AI & Technology: AI strategy and adoption, technology implementation, process automation, and workflow optimization to reduce manual work, improve productivity, and unlock greater value from technology investments.
• Finance Transformation: Improving financial processes, technology, reporting, and organizational structures to create more effective, scalable finance functions that deliver timely insights and stronger financial controls.
• Human Capital: End-to-end HR strategy and expertise spanning HR operations, talent acquisition and management, employee experience, and workforce strategies aligned with business goals.
• Operations Transformation: Identifying and addressing the root causes of operational challenges through practical improvements that increase efficiency, profitability, and overall business performance.
• Strategic Planning: Strategic assessment, planning, and leadership alignment, supported by actionable roadmaps and accountability frameworks that turn organizational priorities into measurable results. 
• Transaction Advisory: Guidance throughout the transaction lifecycle, including financial due diligence, deal structuring, negotiations, and post-close integration planning to manage risk and maximize transaction value.

“We’ve been intentional about growing our advisory practice because we want to help clients beyond their tax and accounting needs,” said Robert Minkler Jr., Anders CEO. “Our clients come to us with questions about all aspects of their businesses. We’ve invested in the people and capabilities to help them find answers and make better decisions.”

“We’ve spent the past several years expanding our advisory capabilities to build on the tax and audit expertise that has long been a foundation of Anders,” said David Hartley, partner-in-charge of advisory at Anders. “When a client comes to us with a challenge involving their finances, technology, people or operations, we can bring together specialists from across the firm to understand the bigger picture and help them move forward.”
