................



com·pa·ny   
[kuhm-puh-nee] Show IPA
noun, plural -nies, verb, -nied, -ny·ing.
–noun
1.
a number of individuals assembled or associated together; group of people.
2.
a guest or guests: We're having company for dinner.

So a firm certainly means bbusiness while compnay can be just a group of people.
But I think it doesnt matter much in context where buisnes services involved.
