Strongpoint Partners landed at #530 on the Inc. 5000 list this year, up from #1,235 in 2025. The climb marks the Chicago-based retirement services platform's third consecutive year on the ranking and its highest position yet.
Assets under administration reached $58 billion across a network of 24 partner firms covering more than 43 states. The company added 10 new TPA partners in 2025, onboarded over 2,500 new clients, and grew head count by more than 270 employees.
"This year, our growth isn't just about the partner firms who've joined us. It's about the infrastructure we've built so that each partner can bring their expertise and also leverage a broader platform to help it grow faster," CEO Danny Hest said in a statement.
Strongpoint was also certified as a Great Place to Work for the second straight year. The certification is based on employee survey results. This year, 93% of Strongpoint employees said the company is a great place to work, compared with 57% at the average U.S. company.
Partner firms that joined in the past year include Allied Consultants, American Retirement Plan Services, SMS Retirement, Bidwell Consulting Services, Integrated Pension Design, and The Finway Group.
The company serves small to midsized businesses with retirement third-party administration, recordkeeping, payroll, actuarial, and HR services. Its partner network includes 24 named firms including HowardSimon, Jocelyn Pension Consulting, and Cash Balance Actuaries.
New partner firms are expected to join in the coming months, the company said.
