LRS® Retirement Solutions is happy to announce the Franklin County Employees’ Retirement System and Trust in Chambersburg, PA, has signed a contract for PensionGold® Version 3 software and implementation services.

PensionGold will replace another vendor-supplied software product that was no longer being updated and the County was concerned about long-term support of the solution. The key criteria for selecting LRS and PensionGold was the overall functionality of the software, LRS’ stability and commitment to the public sector DB marketplace as well as the Pennsylvania Act 96 plans, and LRS’ outstanding track record for successful implementations.

“The LRS PensionGold team is great to work with … very knowledgeable and responsive.” — Harold Wissinger, Franklin County Controller

The project started in September 2020 and includes the implementation of the PensionGold Version 3 line-of-business solution as well as MemberDirect, which provides secure member self-service capabilities.

Franklin County Employees’ Retirement System and Trust is administered by the County Controller’s office and provides services for approximately 1,200 active plan members and payees.
