This website was designed to be easily navigated, functional and an instrument to introduce you to our firm. We hope you find it so. Primarily designed to ease the Plan Administrator’s duties of administering their company’s qualified retirement plan(s), it may also be utilized by plan participants.

To this end, the FORMS section of this site is essentially your plan’s Administration Manual in electronic form. We believe you will find the Forms section all-encompassing as it provides, in one location, the fundamental forms needed to process plan transactions such as enrolling a plan participant, processing a former employee’s termination/retirement distribution, applying for a participant loan or to allow an employee to roll over a distribution from another employer’s qualified plan or an IRA, among others. If the Plan Administrator prefers to have plan participants view and download the appropriate form and accompanying completion instructions, just supply the participant with the TPA Client Identification number needed to access these forms (supplied with the hard copy of your Administration Manual).

In the ABOUT US section we have attempted to introduce our firm and its philosophy, as well as providing an introduction of each staff member. There are photographs of each staff member available helping you "put a face with the name." We hope you find this section informative and helps answers the question "Who is administering my plan?"

The FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ) section will help the newly appointed Plan Administrator, and employees, understand industry terminology by defining terms such as Plan Administrator, Vesting Schedule, 401(k) Plan, Eligibility, Third Party Administrator and many other frequently used terms. There are also answers to many general questions an employee or Plan Administrator may have such as "How does eligibility work?" "When can I join the plan?" or "When am I eligible to receive a distribution of my account balance?" We hope this section provides a tool for answering questions you may not know or are embarrassed to ask.

The LINKS section of our website provides a quick jump to other sites that you may find useful. There are links to investment sites with which we are affiliated as a third party administrator. For Plan Administrators, if you are utilizing any of the investment/insurance companies listed in this section you have already received access instructions from these companies for plan related information. Plan participants have already received access information from the applicable company for account balance information, daily trading and many other features. Therefore, these links have been provided as a convenience to Plan Administrators and plan participants while they’re surfing our site. There are also other links that might prove helpful such as the Social Security Administration website. This section of our website will be updated from time to time as we identify sites that will provide information for Plan Administrators and plan participants as they continue their journey towards a financially secure retirement.

The NEWS section of our website provides access to viewing and downloading our firm’s quarterly newsletter. Our newsletter contains timely articles about newly enacted retirement plan law, articles about avoiding pitfalls in administering a qualified plan such as not forgetting about part-time employees or leased employees, an "Ask the Expert" column and many other features. Take a look. It’s another example of how our firm is committed to yours in teaming to administer your plan successfully. This section will be updated periodically as new versions of our newsletter are available as well as with articles we feel have an impact on your retirement plan.
