Aprio expands advisory platform

• Key insight: Aprio is consolidating its accounting and talent advisory capabilities under one platform.
• What's at stake: The accounting landscape continues to consolidate as PE-backed firms acquire more mid-sized firms. 
• Forward look: The establishment of an Office of the CFO platform.

Aprio acquired TGRP Solutions, an advisory firm serving private equity-backed and publicly traded businesses in Colorado, marking the Top 20 Firm's fifth acquisition in Denver.

The two firms are forming the Office of the CFO, which brings Aprio's accounting and talent advisory capabilities under one platform. TGRP adds over 70 employees. Its founder and president Mark Resiter, managing director of consulting Jim Lockhart, and director of placement and contract solutions Doug Nassif will join Aprio as partners.

"The demands on business leaders continue to evolve as organizations grow and adapt to new opportunities," Aprio CEO Richard Kopelman said in a statement. "By combining TGRP Solutions' technical accounting capabilities with Aprio's Office of the CFO vision, we are creating a more connected experience that helps companies navigate complexity and unlock opportunity. We are focused on bringing together finance, accounting, operations, legal, wealth and talent to support growth at every stage of the business lifecycle."

Aprio, based in Atlanta, ranked No. 20 on Accounting Today's 2026 Top 100 Firms list. It reported $616 million in revenue, with nearly 300 partners and 3,170 employees across 37 offices. In 2024, the firm received a private equity investment from Charlesbank Capital Partners.

"We've built TGRP Solutions around talented people who are committed to helping clients succeed," TGRP's Reister said in a statement. "By joining Aprio, we're expanding the opportunities available to our team while bringing clients access to a broader set of resources and solutions to support their growth."
