Most development firms learn 401(k) on the client's budget. Our team includes professionals with 18+ years in TPA administration, recordkeeping and compliance automation, so we start from how plan years actually run: census in, testing, corrections, filings and sponsor sign-off. Bill Gable of The Retirement Advantage wrote that the team "clearly demonstrate an excellent understanding of the third party administration industry."

Read moreIt is building the systems a third-party administrator uses to run retirement plans: plan and sponsor records, annual administration projects, census intake, compliance testing, Form 5500 data, fee billing and sponsor communication, shaped around how that TPA actually works.
Most TPAs buy a core platform and build around it: intake, integrations, dashboards, billing or a sponsor portal. A full custom build makes sense when your process is a competitive advantage or no product fits. Our build vs buy guide walks through the trade-offs.
Yes. We design around the files, feeds and systems you already have, such as payroll exports, recordkeeper files, SFTP drops and APIs, and add validation and an exception queue before anything is posted.
No. We build and test with synthetic or masked data by default. If production access is ever needed, it happens inside your environment with accounts you control and revoke.
No. Software Home is a software company. Plan rules are implemented with your administrators, compliance team or ERISA counsel signing off, and we do not give plan-level legal or tax advice.
