It then posts your compliance team a ranked Slack alert with plan name, sponsor, due date, and assigned staff member, so no 5500 deadline goes unnoticed.

  • No 5500 deadline missed: your team sees a ranked alert every morning
  • Plans under 7 days are flagged in bold with a direct staff mention
  • Extended deadlines tracked automatically from ftwilliam.com

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it file anything with the DOL or IRS on its own?

No. WebRun only reads status and posts an internal alert. All actual filings happen inside ftwilliam.com by your staff after review. Nothing is submitted automatically.

How far in advance does it start flagging deadlines?

It flags plans within 30 days by default and escalates plans under 7 days with a direct Slack mention of the assigned staff member, giving your team ample time to act.

What if a plan already has an approved extension?

If the extension due date is recorded in ftwilliam.com, WebRun reads the updated deadline and tracks that date instead of the original one.

Put this on autopilot.

Turn it on in minutes - or have our team set it up for you.
