When a company implements an employee benefit plan such as a 401(k) plan, profit sharing plan, pension plan, or employee stock ownership plan (ESOP), it may not understand all the possible risks. Fortunately, we at Rise Solutions Inc. do. We can help you stay compliant and avoid potential fines, penalties, and inquiries from the Department of Labor and the IRS. We can also keep you up to date on the perpetually changing rules and regulations, while assisting you in creating internal systems and processes to ensure compliance.
The level of reporting requirements related to qualified employee benefit plans continues to increase. We have a high level of expertise in the area of auditing employee benefit plans and the related governmental reporting expectations. Rise Solutions Inc. is a member of the AICPA Employee Benefit Plan Audit Quality Center.
From your point of view, the annual audit is probably one of those “checklist” items you want to cross off as soon (and as painlessly) as possible. That’s where we come in. Auditing more than 180 employee benefit plans a year enables us to continually develop new best practices, including a tailored approach to each plan. We help our clients in the areas of plan design and technical issues through our network of third party administrators and custodians, and through our collaborative relationship with the Department of Labor. In addition, we use unique, internally developed software applications that reduce your time commitment to the process and decrease the total time required to complete the audit.
Although many CPA firms perform employee benefit plan audits, our approach is different—better—which turns your goal of a quick and effective audit into a reality.
