Get the Most Value from Your Employee Benefit Plan Audit
Your employee benefit plan audit may be required by law each year, but it does not have to be a costly and prolonged process. At Barnes Wendling CPAs, our employee benefit plan auditors offer extensive experience and strategic solutions to ensure you avoid wasting valuable resources and business disruptions to get the most out of your benefit plan audit.
Employee Benefit Plan Checkup Service
Though an employee benefit plan audit is only required for companies with over 100 eligible plan participants, we understand smaller plans may want an assessment of their plan. Therefore, we created the Small Plan Checkup services to identify and correct plan compliance issues before they become regulatory issues.
Certified Benefit Plan Audit Expertise
Barnes Wendling CPAs has been a member of the AICPA Employee Benefit Plan Audit Quality Center since 2004, and we are proud to have been one of the first Ohio firms to join the audit quality center. Our team frequently attends seminars and training sessions provided by American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) to stay up to date with new trends, procedures, and regulatory requirements.
