Auditor Roster
In accordance with MCA 2-7-506, the Local Government Services Bureau maintains a list of independent auditors who are authorized to conduct audits of local government entities in compliance with provisions of Montana's Single Audit Act. When local governments require the services of an independent auditor in order to comply with their statutory requirements, they must select a firm from the Auditor Roster.
APPLICATION AND RENEWAL
Certified Public Accounting firms interested in conducting audits of Montana local government entities should view the following links for more information on how to apply for placement on the roster.
OTHER SERVICES AVAILABLE TO LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
The Local Government Services Bureau has compiled a list of independent auditors, from the Auditor Roster, who are also interested in providing forensic accounting services and/or annual financial report preparation assistance to local governments.
These lists are provided as a courtesy to local governments who may be interested in these resources. If you engage one of these firms to provide forensic services and/or annual financial report preparation services, any contract will be between the local government entity and the firm only; the bureau will not be a party to the contract or involved in these engagements.
