in business for over 26 years. After 16 years at our previous location, we've

our continued growth. Parking is provided on site.
Our specialty is providing TPA and consulting services to small and mid-sized

our reputation. We try to be as "user-friendly" to our clients as possible.
During normal business hours, our phones are answered by a human being and our
clients really appreciate the service and respect that they receive from us.
Many of our clients have been with us for over 20 years. We have an excellent
reputation in our operating area and maintain good relations with the IRS TE/GE
agents who cover our area.
With the exception of conducting an occasional employee or enrollment meeting,
we try to avoid direct contact with plan participants. This helps reduce our
daily stress levels and lets us focus on our normal servicing of plans. We
attempt to keep overtime to a minimum. When it's needed, we pay for it (1.5
times your normal rate).
We work together as a team - sharing knowledge, expertise and help when another
staff member needs it. Dress is business casual and our normal business hours
are 9 to 5 Monday through Friday. To provide a healthy work environment, we
prohibit the use of any scented products or tobacco products on company
property.
