ATPA Experience
Taft-Hartley Trust Funds




Associated Third Party Administrators (ATPA) was formed nearly fifteen years ago through a consolidation of two long established third party administrators that were founded about the same time having over forty years of experience and leadership in employee benefits administration. We continue to operate from our pioneering base in computerized application technology for the administration of Taft-Hartley multi-employer trust funds. We specialize in collective bargaining agreement administration, and are an industry leader in optimizing best business practices, cost containment and operational efficiency.

Today, we are the second largest and best independent, Taft-Hartley Third Party Administrator in the country. ATPA was purchased by United Benefits and Pension Services, Inc. in December 2007.

Our staff of four hundred employees is carefully trained and highly motivated, operating from various locations throughout the United States. We service a large number of Labor/Management Trust Funds and Public Employee/Employer Benefit Plans providing a wide array of administrative services. Our data processing and record-keeping systems exceed industry standards and are customized to meet each client's specific needs. We conduct our clients' business with hundreds of national and local Attorneys, Consultants, CPA's, Actuaries, managed care specialists and other specialized employee benefit providers. Our Administrators have extensive experience working with the International Foundation of Employee Benefit Plans and the Society of Professional Benefit Administrators as directors, committee members, speakers and authors.

ATPA's data processing and information management systems utilize large-scale mainframes, file servers, wide and local area networks and stand-alone desktop applications. We successfully interface with and support plan service providers' unique data processing requirements and all of our offices and systems are connected via the latest technology available. As the industry leader in technology utilization, we strive to employ solutions that best serve our client's needs.

Most importantly, we at ATPA thoroughly understand the various dynamics, which significantly impact employee benefit plans and their administration.
