Knocking points off

No IQPA named; plan is in the 80-120 transition zone — may be filing as small.
Only 43% as many balances as active participants — suggests many active employees aren't deferring.

Helping the score

Concentration not scored — Schedule of Assets PDF not yet parsed for this plan.
No Schedule C compensation disclosed — likely a small plan or unbundled.
