The Rehmann Group to Add Local Firm to Fold

Top-ranked accounting firm The Rehmann Group, based here, will add Perrin, Fordree & Co., a $5 million, 38-employee firm based in Troy, to its fold effective Jan. 1, 2005.

The deal, which follows The Rehmann Group's January 2004 merger with Southfield-based Parker Wittus & Co., gives Rehmann more than 100 employees in the Metro Detroit market.

The firms are preparing for a move into new office space in Fall 2005 that will bring all three together in one Troy-based location, according to chief executive Steve Kelly.

The Rehmann Group ranked No. 41 on the 2004 Accounting Today Top 100 Firms List with $34.5 million in revenue, and 278 employees, including 26 partners. The Rehmann Group's core industry segments include manufacturing, government/nonprofit, health care, service business, retail/distribution, real estate, and international and closely held companies.
