More About the Series

The Benchmark Shaping FY26 Performance

The FY26 AU Accounting Benchmarking Roadshow is a national event series designed to bring Australia’s most comprehensive accounting performance dataset directly to firm leaders across the country.

Built on live operational and financial data from over 250 Australian accounting firms, this year’s benchmark goes beyond surface-level metrics. It traces how value flows through your firm — from client strategy and pricing, through production and workflow, to billing, cash, and profit.

The FY26 Benchmarking Roadshow visited six cities throughout August 2026.

Melbourne | Sydney | Brisbane | Perth | Adelaide | Hobart
