CBIZ CPAs (previously known as Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C.) is a nationwide CPA firm based in Kansas City, Missouri, operating more than 30 offices throughout the United States.

History

The origins of MHM trace back to 1954 when Ernst D. Mayer established the firm in Kansas City. In 1960, it combined with Bill Hoffman’s practice, and the name Mayer Hoffman McCann was officially adopted in 1978 following Chuck McCann’s appointment as managing partner.

In August 2024, the firm transitioned its brand identity from Mayer Hoffman McCann to CBIZ CPAs to create a closer connection between its attest services and the broader non-attest offerings of CBIZ.

Relationship with CBIZ Inc.

In 1998, MHM separated its tax and consulting division, which subsequently merged with Century Business Services, Inc., currently known as CBIZ, Inc.. This segment functions under the name CBIZ MHM, LLC, a subsidiary of CBIZ, Inc. MHM maintains a partnership with CBIZ through an administrative services agreement and conducts public accounting via an alternative practice structure compliant with AICPA Ethics Interpretation 101–14. Despite this affiliation, MHM operates as an independently owned and managed entity governed by its CPA shareholders.

Both MHM and CBIZ are recognized among the leading national accounting firms, securing the #10 spot in Accounting Today’s 2016 listings.

MHM specializes in providing audit and attest services across several major industries such as:

  • Architecture, engineering, and construction
  • Manufacturing, retail, and distribution
  • Governmental entities
