"The Union Impact team has improved the efficiency of our Market Recovery Program (MRP) by providing automated processing tools for our contractors and business office. This web-based tool has reduced the time required to process paper requests and time cards...n[their] team worked with our Local Union to provide a system specific to our business requirements. The program allows us to track the distribution of funds and helps ensure the contractors comply with the MRP's rules. The program allows us to track every dollar allocated to each contractor, project, or member. We can recommend Union Impact to any Local Union looking to do the same."

"It is my absolute pleasure to recommend Union Impact as a cloud based software provider for unions...nUnion Impact has helped us run a better market recovery program. The ability to do real-time tracking of job development and representative activities and the platform’s integrated nature has allowed us to free up man power that was once used on writing reports, consolidating information, and tracking jobs and contractors"nn

"We have used Union Impact software since January 2017, and it has been a lifesaver when trying to find members to fill labor requests... nThe software sends a dispatch by texting and emailing qualified members, and they can respond from their phone. I have been able to fill every call at a moment's notice. The first month using it, the program sent out 700 texts to members. Our members are happier because they are working, and our employers are happier because they have experienced workers on site. Win-Win!"nn

"We have been using Union Impact for quite some time and our Local couldn't be happier with all the options this system has to offer. They have created a program that is very comprehensive and useful. Their customer service department has gone to great depths to assist us with all our needs and has made several changes to accommodate us without hesitation."
