Pension Administration & Compliance
Retirement plans are not a one-size-fits-all proposition. Beyond the different types of plans — 401(k), 403(b) and 457(b) for various organizations — each business may have a unique process and end goal with its retirement plan offering. As such, designing and implementing the most effective defined contribution plan for your specific business may seem like an intimidating task.

Our advanced team of professionals works with businesses across the country to devise solutions that make good sense for employers and their workforce. We’ll take the time to ensure you don’t feel like a number. Our customized support has helped us become a trusted service center for all things small business.
Pension Plans
If you’re beginning the process of starting a defined contribution plan for your closely held business, you probably have some questions. How much should my plan provide to each employee? Should I install automatic enrollment? Should I offer a Safe Harbor 401(k) match or nonelective contributions? And if you’ve been sponsoring a plan but are ready to better optimize your offerings, you probably have questions, too.
As a one-stop shop that fulfills all services in-house, Omnia would love to help you in the design, implementation and upkeep of your retirement program. We provide plan design consulting, assisting you in narrowing down the plethora of choices to determine the best path forward for your business.

By doing so, we ensure your plan provisions stays compliant with the latest DOL, IRS and ERISA regulations.

If your current TPA is not functioning as a 3(16) Fiduciary, the business and any employee associated with managing the plan are the only ones on the hook for accidental oversights of breaking the governing bodies’ rules.
