How a retirement plan is structured plays an important role in its overall success. Establishing and meeting objectives is the primary goal.

Plan Document Management
Once a plan is designed, it must be converted to written Plan and Trust documents which meet the requirements of government regulations.
While it is important the initial design of a plan meets its objectives, it is also critical to continually monitor the plan to ensure it is keeping pace with the changing needs of the company and its employees.

Complete Government Testing and Reporting
CecilCo places a high priority on recordkeeping, testing and consulting services for all client plans. These services include monitoring of transactions and all tests required to maintain a plan’s qualified status. We also provide extensive guidance with legislative, non-routine compliance and audit issues.
At CecilCo, we do it all—routine compliance work, as well as special projects necessitated by unusual circumstances. We actually take into account that there are numerous allowable methods to calculate ADP and ACP tests. We automatically calculate the different test variations to ensure the best possible results for the tests, the lowest possible refunds if a test fails, and for planning purposes for potential plan design changes.
