Employee Benefit Plan Audit

Matt Gardiner, CPA, CFE, Partner

Audits of Employee Benefit Plans

Many organizations sponsor 401(k) or defined benefits plans that require annual audits under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). These audits are highly specialized but benefit greatly from a deep understanding of the plan sponsor’s operations, people, and financial reporting.

Our firm performs both employee benefit plan audits and financial statement audits. This integrated expertise allows for efficiency, consistency, and a single point of contact for our clients throughout the year. Whether your plan is a defined contribution or defined benefit, our familiarity with your organization helps ensure the audit process is seamless.

A Streamlined Approach

Because our teams are already familiar with your organization’s systems, internal controls, and staff, we can perform your employee benefit plan audit efficiently. This continuity means less time getting new auditors up to speed and a more consistent experience from year to year.

Planning Ahead

Now is a great time to assess your Plan’s audit needs for calendar year ending plans. Our experience in working with your organization for your financial statement audit and tax needs, as well as our experience in performing employee benefit plan audits, makes our audit process as efficient and straightforward as possible. Our team can help assess your plan’s status, review compliance considerations, and ensure all filing and reporting obligations are met accurately and on time.
