About CPA Department
We Empower Businesses, Our Community, And Our Employees
Throughout our years in business, we have learned the most crucial motivator for our clients and employees alike: value. To find the most success, all team members need to feel valued.
With that in mind, it is our mission to build strong relationships with our own team and with yours so that everyone involved feels heard, understood, and considered during the course of our work.
At CPA Department, we focus on building a culture of collaboration that is entirely client-centric. We aim to provide outstanding quality service grounded in trust, reliability, and re
Who We Serve
We partner with growing small and mid-sized organizations that need support, expertise, guidance, and experience to play a crucial role in their journey. It is our hope to act as a seamless extension of your business, rather than a basic “contractor”. The loyal and attentive team your business is assigned will deeply understand what you have to offer and show determination in helping you succeed, making you feel as if you are their only client. As your business scales, we support any in-house team and integrate with any new processes.
We specialize in our work with government contractors, as our experience has provided us with a wealth of insight and know-how in a more complex accounting space. We focus on forming a strong relationship with your business as we guide you through setting up accounting systems, preparing for audits, and meeting all federal standards.
How We Started
When CEO Jennifer Eubanks started CPA Department in 2014, she set out to grow a traditional CPA firm that conducted accounting and consulting work, compilations, and tax work. As the CPA firm began to grow, she was increasingly approached by government contractors who were challenged by the complexities of the accounting required.
This was an “aha moment” for Jennifer.
Government contractors are unique businesses, with distinct needs and specific requirements. As a former DCAA auditor assigned to Northrup Grumman, as well as an experienced CFO of a telecommunications company and a corporate controller for a leading public company, Jennifer offered a notable skillset. She had a clear understanding of how to lead government contractors through these challenges, and the knowledge to help them grow their organizations.
How We Evolved
Our own growth was informed by the growth of our clients. When we first meet with many of our clients, they might be new to government contracting, they might have goals but not sure how to reach them, or they might be looking for solutions without a clear trajectory.
We have learned that the best way to help a client get where they want to be is to build a strong relationship. The first step in that process is to determine their own unique needs and goals. Only upon gaining a true understanding of the client and their needs can we determine a solution and future road map for success.
Quality Service Grounded In Trust
Our mission is to drive outstanding value to our clients, as well as our own employees. Every aspect of CPA Department centers around the “team”.
As your business starts out, we can act as a one-stop-shop to meet all your accounting and financial needs. You are assigned a responsive and dedicated team of experts to work alongside your organization, who will take full ownership of its financial end while establishing a trusting and communicative relationship.
As your business scales, your team remains available to support your in-house team and partner with your organization to continue to reach your financial goals.
Throughout the life of your organization, you will have a knowledgeable, loyal, and efficient team that has your needs at the forefront of their operations.
Communication, Collaboration, Commitment.
We empower you by helping you grow your business through trust and service. You empower us by enabling us to grow ours.

We collaborate with your organization, and our own team members, to provide you with the best results. We prioritize your own voice in our decision-making, while utilizing our expertise to support you
