The firm continues to assist DOL’s OCFO with quarterly financial reporting; compilation of year-end financial statements for inclusion in DOL’s Performance and Accountability /Agency Financial Reports; and preparation of the financial section of DOL’s Summary of Performance and Financial Information Report. As an active member of the Association of Government Accountants (AGA), and participant in AGA’s Certificate of Excellence in Accountability Reporting review program, Mr. Rice continues to be a strong advocate for excellence in Federal financial management and reporting.

EDWARD G. DUCUT succeeded Mr. Rice as the firm’s President in January 2016. Mr. Ducut joined Hunter Rice P.C. in 2002 as a specialist in information technology, and has played a vital role in the firm’s management, growth and success.
