During the consultation and design phase, RSG employs a comprehensive approach to ensure the proposed plan will meet a company’s goals; this process includes the following:

Review the company’s history, nature of business, management objectives, profitability trends, personnel policies and employee turnover.

Analysis of employee and compensation data to estimate benefits and contributions under various plan formulas.

Testing of allocations under various formulas and projections of benefits for defined contribution plans.

Preliminary testing to determine governmental compliance.

Development of plan design specifications, including such factors as eligibility, vesting, benefit and/or allocation formula, retirement dates and distribution methods.

Preparation of a clear and concise report for company management, outlining the recommended plan, contribution and/or benefit amounts.
