About Us - Bates Management Corporation,
Accounting and Marketing Firm
The company was founded in 1994 under the name of Bates
Management Corporation, but the principle shareholder,
Gordon J.C. Bates began with an unincorporated company in the mid
seventies in the accounting field. Many years were spent, increasing
the accounting business and developing accounting software that
is now one of the major activities of the company. This software
can be viewed at the JADE
