Our Story

About What We Do & How We Got Here

Our experts have earned credentials certifying their expertise in both the Civil Service Retirement (CSRS) and the Federal Employees Retirement (FERS) Systems. In addition to the Chartered Federal Employee Benefits Consultant (ChFEBC) and FedSmart certificates, our team includes Retirement Management Analysts (RMA), Certified Financial Planners, (CFP), and BA, BS, and MBA degree holders.

They’ve helped thousands of FERS and CSRS participants understand their pensions, benefits, and have helped complete hundreds of retirement packets.

Why Federal Benefits and Retirement?
Each organization has a mission to fulfill- and each employee fills a role in that organization’s mission.

The conclusion is simple: when we do our job well helping federal employees sort out their benefits and financial situations, the
organization as a whole is more likely to achieve success in its organizational goals.
