History of the company
Since its inception in 1985, Kearney & Company divested its commercial division in 2000 to concentrate entirely on serving federal clients. During the next ten years, the company's annual revenue surged from $5 million to close to $75 million, while its workforce increased from 30 employees to more than 400. In December 2010, it earned recognition as one of the fastest-growing businesses in Washington and was listed among Accounting Today's '2010 Best Accounting Firms to Work For'. CEO Edward F. Kearney highlighted the importance of generating demand through exceptional service and empowering talented personnel. The company also supports the Federal Accounting Handbook, which Ed Kearney co-authors, underscoring its proficiency in federal accounting practices.
