The administration side of things
The great thing about outsourcing your plans is you no longer have to do all the work yourself. In fact, you'll have a team of equity plan professionals at your fingertips to manage every part of your plans:
Your Relationship Manager ensures services meet or exceed client expectations, oversees the strategic direction, management and overall success of your plans, and coordinates the implementation of requested enhancements.
Your Client Service Manager acts as the liaison for complex administrative issues, and manages the administrative team responsible for day-to-day tasks and specialized support functions.
Your Client Service Professional is responsible for daily processing and research, fields questions, acts as the liaison for all plan administration issues and generates and provides company reports.
Your Financial Service Manager fields questions and acts as the liaison for all financial reporting issues (for GEMS users).
With this team at your disposal, you’ll be able to hand off most administrative tasks for your plans. You’ll also have experts who ensure all deadlines are met, forms are submitted, and regulations are covered to avoid unnecessary penalties as well as damage to your company’s reputation.
