Abstract: A system and method for analyzing a service provider of a retirement plan and comparing the service provider against the service providers associated with a group of similar plans is disclosed. In one embodiment, a computer system for evaluating a service provider of a retirement plan comprises a computer server having a database comprising a plurality of data defining a plurality of characteristics of each of a plurality of retirement plans, software configured to identify a subset of the plurality of retirement plans having characteristics comparable to characteristics of the selected retirement plan in view of the type and characteristics of the service provider, software configured to permit the selection of at least one report providing the comparison of the service provider, and software configured to automatically generate and deliver the selected at least one report to a user for display on a user interface.

Abstract: A first computing device receives a service access request to access a service provided by another computing device, the request including user authentication characteristics of a user. The first computing device forwards the service access request to the other computing device. The first computing device receives a user interface configuration file from the other computing device, that, when executed by the second computing device, enables the second computing device to display a user interface that provides access to the service. The first computing device modifies the user interface configuration file based on the user authentication characteristics to provide selective access to the service. The first computing device transmits the modified user interface configuration file to the second computing device, that, when executed by the second computing device, enables the second computing device to display a modified user interface that provides selective access to the service.
