History

Although we are always thinking ahead... our roots go back to 1975 when it was hard for smaller firms to compete with the then Big-8 accounting firms. CPA Management Systems (CPAMS) was formed with a dual mission: to pool member resources and also to teach accounting “technicians” how to be entrepreneurs and run their firms profitably.

Over the years, the need for expanded global resources became apparent. In 1994, the Board pro-actively forged an alliance with like-minded INPACT International and CPAMS began trading as INPACT Americas. Shortly thereafter, INPACT Asia Pacific joined the alliance and coverage was provided around the world.

Now INPACT North America members are able to provide their clients “Local Expertise and International Presence!"
