AICPA logoThe American Institute of CPAs is considering the future of its annual selection of the Top Ten Technologies. The selection, which is usually announced by now, was hampered this year by the resignation of the chair of the committee that organizes the process and by the consideration for changing the program's direction.

An AICPA spokesperson said the announcement has been delayed until after April 15. However, what emerges, if anything, may not be the same list of technology and technology issues that has normally been announced in January.

The process was set back by the resignation of Mark Mayberry, a partner at BDO Seidman. He has since been replaced by Ron Box, the CFO of Joe Money Machinery in Birmingham, Ala.

"The AICPA has been talking about changing it up and not having it be a top 10 but a Top Ten focus on industry, and so," says Jim Bourke, a shareholder with Red Bank, N.J.-based WithumSmith+Brown. Bourke, a member of the committee was scheduled to have a conference call today with other committee members. Bourke says one of the problems has been that top issues for CPAs in public practice may differ from those industry.
