Dean Dorton Tech Stack
Mid-market accounting firm with audit, tax, and technology consulting
Dean Dorton operates as a traditional accounting and advisory firm serving mid-market clients across construction, healthcare, real estate, and other verticals. The stack reflects a mature professional-services business—Sage Intacct, CCH tax software, QuickBooks, Power BI—rather than a tech vendor. Hiring is steady but narrow: finance and support dominate, with only one engineering and one data role active, suggesting technology remains a cost center rather than a product differentiator. Current project focus (Avalara tax automation, Sage implementations, construction budgeting services) indicates the firm is modernizing client delivery through software adoption rather than building proprietary tools.
