What is a MEP Plan

MEP stands for Multiple Employer Plan.  A MEP is a streamlined version of the complex 401(k) plans and are designed specifically to be easy to implement and less costly.  It is the ideal solution for companies looking for a retirement plan that doesn’t require a great deal of management time.

Benefits of MEPs

Multiple Employer Plans give you the ability to pull in a group of two or more employers where there is no relation between the employers and cover them under one retirement plan.  These employers may or may not share the same industry or have a common business relationship even though they are not a related employer. By implementing a MEP into your business, you’ll experience administrative convenience while minimizing fiduciary liability Multiple Employer Plans, among many other benefits, offer:

  • Low-cost alternative to the traditional 401(k)
  • Single source provider for payroll and pension plan
  • Reduced fiduciary responsibility
  • Automatic employee contributions
  • Low time commitment from HR staff
  • Easy plan for employees to understand
  • Access to an experienced retirement staff
  • Automated census reporting fiduciary fee disclosures and monitoring

We look forward to working with TPS Group next year

We look forward to working with TPS Group next year

As another year ends, I want to express my sincere gratitude and appreciation to you and TPS Group for assigning us Krista Blier. Krista provides exceptional customer service and has been a major asset to me and Lynch, Traub, Keefe & Errante, P.C. She is extremely knowledgeable and always accessible. Always on top of the RMD’s, giving me an explanation on form 5500-SF to present to Mr. Keefe & keeping us updated with any account changes as well as specifics. It is a relief knowing I have full faith in Krista and can turn a blind eye to our account. I cannot tell you how many vendors/brokers I have to stay on top of and babysit to make sure our deadlines are met and to perform their job duties. Krista is a pleasure to work with and we look forward to working with her and TPS Group next year.

TPS filled in the gaps within our small HR department

Working with Kim and her talented team helped us fill in the gaps within our small HR department. I strongly recommend TPS for HR tasks that don’t warrant hiring a full-time team. Thanks again Kim!
