Thanks for any insight you may offer.

I'll put in a recommendation for doing it yourself with the Snider Investment Method. With the Fidelity BrokerageLink we have at Delta, we are one of the few 401k/DC Plans where this method can be done.

You can read about it at Snider Advisors web site and figure out whether it is a good fit for you. I like that it takes minimal time and effort (a few hours one day per month)... and for the six years I've been using it, it has performed exactly as designed.
