Eugene and Martella are active volunteers with the American Society of Pension Professionals & Actuaries (ASPPA).

Joseph & Turner have been DATAIR customers since 1996. “For the small plan practitioner, there is no comparison, as to the cost savings achieved, when you compare the DATAIR Pension and Valuation System with other software vendors.” Eugene Joseph, EA, MSPA and Martella Turner-Joseph, EA, MSPA

Dennis Povloski owns DF Pensions, Inc. of Jacksonville Beach, Flor-ida. DF Pensions specializes in the design and administration of plans for closely-held businesses, including sole proprietors and partnerships. To serve this market, DF Pensions designs DB and DC plans or a combination of the two that maximize benefits to key employees while controlling over-all plan costs. DF Pensions primarily serves plan sponsors, but it also provides ac-tuarial services for professional partners. These are other TPAs that do not have an actuary or DB administrator on staff but would like to expand their services to their clients. “When I priced several different software vendors, I found that DATAIR provided the most comprehensive software suite at the most reasonable rate. The systems are very intuitive and easy to navigate, and when I do come across an issue, customer support is always available….Being a DATAIR client also gives me access to their message boards. Users post questions about the software or pension issues. Other users and the customer support team re-spond.”

Organized 30 years ago by a former NASA mathematician, Inte-grated Pension Design’s credo is, "While Pensions can be as com-plex as Rocket Science, you don't need to be a Rocket Scientist to understand them." From its office on Long Island, New York, Inte-grated Pension Design provides full service administration and con-sulting to sponsors of DC and DB plans throughout the country. Their niche is custom design of sophisticated DB (including Cash Balance) and DC combo plans for anywhere between 4 to 200 lives. Cost control and optimal plan design is achieved through an emphasis on client education and communication. Integrated Pension Design began using DATAIR in 2004. “We like to think of ourselves as finely-trained musicians and our edge is the instrument we play - DATAIR! It allows us to utilize our ca-pabilities to their fullest potential. And by DATAIR we mean their support staff as much as the software.” Joe Cimino, Stan Lipton and Crizelda Robes

FlexPlus System Options For added payment choices

MAGNETIC IMAGE CHARACTER RECOGNITION (MICR)

Load “safety paper” into your laser jet printer, add a special toner cartridge, and this option will create customized reim-bursement checks with the magnetic coding that banks recog-nize. Avoids the inconvenience of continually changing pre-printed check stock for each client.

AUTOMATED CLEARING HOUSE (ACH) This option will generate ACH transactions to create and transmit reimbursements directly into the partici-pant’s bank account. A paper receipt with transaction statement or account status may be printed as well.

Fox-Everett, Inc. has built a reputation for providing superior “client-focused” service since its founding in 1945 by Carl Fox and R. B. Everett. Fox-Everett is the largest independently-owned insurance agency in Mississippi. Fox-Everett’s retirement plan consulting and admini-stration services team administers plans customized for clients that include, but are not limited to, tradi-tional DC and DB plans, safe harbor 401(k)s, New Comparability, ESOPS, plus 403(b) and 457 plans. DATAIR’s software has been in use at Fox-Everett since 1988. Fox-Everett has been able to take ad-vantage of the system integration between DATAIR’s administration, government reporting, and plan docu-ment systems for retirement and cafeteria plans.

DB & DC Systems Report Writer option For customized reports and statements

Stan A. Kinoshita & Associates, Inc. of Hilo, Hawaii was founded in 1972. Although the firm, which has fourteen employees, is an insurance agency, it also establishes and administers all types of qualified retirement plans in Hawaii and California. Annual administration fees are based on the type of plan and number of plan participants. The firm does not invest plan assets, make investment decisions, or give invest-ment advice. These responsibilities are usually left to the plan Trustee, or investment counselor. “For the past 20 years, DATAIR has been the first and only company providing the retirement support software for our firm. We are extremely happy with the technical support and customer service they provide us. “

The DB and DC Administration Systems offer consid-erable flexibility in the appearance and content of their standard reports and participant statements. Data im-port and export and features such as color, borders and scanned logos are all part of the basic systems. How-ever, for those who need further customization, the Report Writer Program is now available.

REPORT WRITER FEATURES: ♦ Modify DATAIR-created templates or create your own reports ♦ Use reports only available to Report Writer licensees includ-

ing: Integrated Contribution Report, and Plan Document Ap-pendix A for New Comparability plans.

♦ Apply mathematical and conditional functions. DATAIR provides support for systems questions and minor report changes. Major projects are quoted separately.

1099R Service Bureau a time-saving service from DATAIR

Retirement Plan Specialists, Inc. (RPS) of Oviedo, Florida provides administrative, actuarial, and consulting services for pension and profit sharing plans to corporations, part-nerships, and sole proprietorships of all sizes. Programs are individually tailored to suit the unique objectives of their clients in the most cost-effective and efficient manner and are continually reviewed for changing profit pictures and shifting goals.

In addition to being a long-time licensee of many of DATAIR’s systems, RPS has signed up to use DATAIR’s 1099R Service Bureau “that eliminates us from generating & mailing hundreds of these forms each year. This frees up valuable time to devote to our clients and their re-quests for contribution calculations.”

January is a hectic month for plan service providers, and 1099Rs play a major role. Would having an outside firm print, mail, and electroni-cally file your 1099Rs relieve you of some of that burden? If so, the DATAIR 1099R Service Bureau is the answer! Let DATAIR free you from ordering and stocking special paper and envelopes; printing, folding and stuffing envelopes; and sealing, stamp-ing, and mailing the forms. And, you can skip having to manually transmit the files to the IRS, verifying the filing status, and printing the red IRS copy of the forms. How does it work? Just enter your 1099R data in DATAIR’s Pension Reporter as you normally do. Then, with a press of a button, send the data to DATAIR for processing. Use of the 1099R Service Bureau requires licensing the 1099R module of the Pension Reporter System.
