Which engagement are you pricing?
Baker Tilly is included in this comparison for federal tax compliance and planning alongside broader professional services.
A relevant buyer profile: Companies comparing a broad tax relationship with a focused owner planning engagement.
You are considering recurring company tax support but want to understand the deliverables for a one-time owner review.
Ask how company compliance, specialty projects, and personal planning are separated in the proposal.
Provider-specific scope considerations
Baker Tilly's tax menu includes compliance, planning, and specialty services for companies and individuals. An owner evaluating a one-time review should request that project as a separately identifiable scope even if a wider company relationship is proposed. Ask how specialist recommendations become implementation instructions and which ongoing work is mandatory. Compare AE on the same decision timetable and entities. A proposal with more service lines is not necessarily a comparable purchase until the owner-specific deliverables and total commitments are itemized.
Specialist team and project boundaries
Define the actual project: business returns, transaction diligence, state exposure, property studies, or owner planning. Request named workstreams, responsible specialists, and a fee basis for each. A broad national-firm engagement can contain services outside AE’s tax offering.
| Item | What to verify |
|---|---|
| First-year cost | Add setup, cleanup, analysis, mandatory companion services, implementation, and filing charges for the same period. |
| Ongoing cost | Confirm renewal, minimum commitment, cancellation notice, and any price changes tied to business growth. |
| Scope boundaries | Which deliverables apply specifically to my owner-level planning? |
| Responsibility | Which specialist work is essential to my situation and how is each workstream billed? |
A quote request tailored to this decision
Use this as a starting point and send sensitive documents through the provider’s secure intake process:
I am evaluating Baker Tilly for federal tax compliance and planning alongside broader professional services. You are considering recurring company tax support but want to understand the deliverables for a one-time owner review. Which deliverables apply specifically to my owner-level planning? Please separate initial analysis, implementation, recurring support, and filing. Specify the legal entities and tax years covered, exclusions, required companion services, payment dates, and renewal terms. Which specialist work is essential to my situation and how is each workstream billed?
Compare Baker Tilly with AE Tax Advisors
Compare only the work both proposals actually contain. AE’s current published standard advisory fee is $7,800, paid in two $3,900 installments 30 days apart, with no required recurring annual planning fee. Returns, amendments, cost segregation, and additional services are separately scoped. Confirm the current agreement before committing.
A lower filing or software price can be appropriate when that is all you need. A broader engagement can be appropriate when several professionals or workstreams must be coordinated. Neither price alone establishes quality, eligibility for a deduction, or guaranteed savings.
Review AE’s current fees and bring both proposals to a consultation to discuss scope and fit.
