Brian Price CPA, QKA

Chief Executive Officer

As a CPA that founded and built a successful assurance practice for over 30 years, Brian Price has been in the shoes of Autire’s client base. He’s experienced the time-consuming frustration of performing a 401(k) audit.

In 2017 he’d had enough. Brian broke down the EBP audit step-by-step, identifying all its efficiencies. Next, he partnered with leading IT developers to create and build a better way to audit.

Today Brian continues innovating the process of specialized audits. He also spends time ensuring Autire and the industry at large are up to date with the latest accounting standards by serving as a member of the AICPA’s EBP Audit Quality Center’s Executive Committee.
