Troubled Economy – Surviving and Thriving (TEST) Task Force

Troubled Economy - Surviving and Thriving TEST Task Force
Helping companies navigate the economic crisis


The TEST Task Force helps clients address the challenges and find the opportunities in the current economic environment. TEST brings together a multi-disciplinary team from our accounting, tax and consulting practices. These professionals take a comprehensive approach to assess your company's business situation with the goal to find necessary and appropriate solutions.

"In these unusual economic times, companies must validate their business models, verify their vitals, and creatively explore new opportunities and ideas," said Jeff Greeneway, Wipfli Partner and Consulting Leader for the TEST task force. "These are not only turbulent waters; they are uncharted from what businesses have experienced in the past. Therefore, companies of all types and sizes need to look holistically at their businesses and act quickly and decisively."

"There are opportunities in every market," said Karen Monfre, Wipfli Partner and Financial Leader for the TEST Task Force. "Companies who make the right choices are going to be positioned to dominate their marketplace when the economic recovery arrives."

"No one can afford to take a 'business as usual' approach when responding to current conditions," said Rick Taylor, Wipfli Partner and Tax Leader for the TEST Task Force. "With proper planning, businesses can maximize the tax benefits provided to companies experiencing rough times and use the refunds and tax credits to fund urgently needed change that will put them on the path to future profitability."

The TEST task force provides companies with breadth and depth of expertise across many industries in the areas of:

  • Strategy
  • Market analysis
  • Financial review
  • Tax
  • Operations
  • Human resource
  • Technology


For the most comprehensive approach the TEST Task Force works with clients to assess their business needs followed by defining necessary strategy adjustments, providing decision support assistance and finally driving the execution of the designed solution.

Based on a client's business needs and requests, the Wipfli TEST Task Force can work with clients through all four solution segments or address business needs solely related to any one of the segments.
