Stones River Consulting Wins 2025 Rocky Top Business Award for SecondConsecutive Year

Stones River Consulting (SRC), a fast-growing Third-Party Administrator specializing in 401(k) plan administration, has been named a recipient of the 2025 Rocky Top Business Award—marking its second consecutive win following its debut recognition in 2023.

The Rocky Top Business Awards, presented by PYA in partnership with the University of Tennessee, Knoxville and the UT Alumni offices, honor the fastest-growing businesses owned or led by University of Tennessee alumni. SRC will be recognized at the official awards ceremony on May 2, 2025, in Knoxville, TN, where final rankings will be announced.

Founded by Christopher Oneal, a 1991 graduate of the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, Stones River Consulting opened its doors on November 11, 2011, in Murfreesboro, TN. Under Oneal’s leadership, SRC has remained steadfast in its mission to serve small businesses often overlooked by the traditional retirement plan industry.

“Most small businesses are underserved when it comes to retirement planning,” said Oneal. “They’re often left with plans that are too expensive, don’t fit their goals, and lack real customer support. We started Stones River Consulting to change that.”

SRC has distinguished itself by offering the kind of strategic attention and personalized service typically reserved for large corporations. The company partners closely with business owners and their financial advisors to ensure every retirement plan.

• Aligns with the business owner’s financial goals
• Delivers maximum value
• Serves as a meaningful benefit to employees
• Frees the owner to focus on running their company, while SRC handles the rest

This recognition from the University of Tennessee is a testament to SRC’s continued growth and
its commitment to reshaping how small businesses approach retirement planning.
