Two products. One system of record.

Focused tools for the two workforces every jurisdiction actually runs — not another sprawling suite.

For your permanent workforce

Unify HRIS

Consolidate core HR, records, benefits, and time & attendance into one modern system.

  • One employee record from hire to retire
  • Benefits administration and open enrollment
  • Time & attendance with union-rule support
  • Self-service for employees and supervisors

For your election surge workforce

Unify Election Payroll

The only payroll built for election administration — pay thousands of temporary workers each cycle, correctly.

  • Role-based pay for poll workers, judges, and trainers
  • Training pay vs. election-day pay, handled automatically
  • Rapid onboarding and offboarding at cycle scale
  • Built-in state election-code compliance

A closer look at what's inside

The capabilities public-sector teams use every day — grouped by product, built to work as one.

unify.gov/analytics

Employee records

A single, secure profile per employee — from onboarding paperwork to retirement.

Benefits administration

Run open enrollment, manage plans, and sync deductions without spreadsheets.

Time & attendance

Accruals, overtime, and union-rule logic that calculates correctly the first time.

Self-service portal

Employees update info, request time off, and view pay stubs on any device.

Org & position management

Model departments, positions, and reporting lines that mirror your real structure.

Reporting & audit trail

Board-ready reports and a complete history of every change, on demand.

The thing point solutions can't do

Every election cycle, your jurisdiction becomes two employers at once: the permanent government you run year-round, and a temporary workforce of thousands that appears for a few weeks — then disappears.

Unify is the only platform that treats both as one workforce: shared records, one payroll engine, one audit trail, one login. No spreadsheets bridging two systems.

What changes with Unify

From patchwork to one platform

The daily realities public-sector teams describe to us — and what each one looks like once it runs on Unify.

Without Unify

Siloed systems

HR in one tool, election payroll in spreadsheets — and nothing reconciles.

With Unify

One system of record

Every worker — permanent or temporary — in one place that reconciles itself.

Without Unify

Paying thousands of temp workers

A surge workforce appears for weeks, each with different roles and rates.

With Unify

Payroll built for the surge

Role-based pay and mass onboarding, handled at full cycle scale.

Without Unify

Compliance risk

State election codes and wage rules leave no room for a mistake or a gap.

With Unify

Compliant by default

Codes, rates, and a full audit trail built in — not bolted on.

Without Unify

Manual, slow processes

Urgent timesheets wait in loops while staff copy-paste into another system.

With Unify

Automated end to end

Pay rules flow end-to-end to take weeks of cleanup down to days.

Case study

Hamilton County paid 2,300 election workers in one pay run — with zero manual checks

After consolidating HR and election payroll on Unify, the county closed its post-election pay cycle in 4 days instead of 3 weeks.

"Before Unify, election payroll meant three weeks of spreadsheets and overtime. Now my team runs it in days — and I can answer any auditor's question in one system."
Sandra Cole Election Director, Dane County

Questions your committee will ask

Straight answers to what procurement, IT, and leadership want to know.

Point solutions leave you reconciling two systems every election cycle — duplicate records, manual exports, and no single audit trail. Unify keeps your permanent workforce and election surge workforce in one system of record, so data entered once is correct everywhere and auditors get one consistent answer.

Unify is SOC 2 Type II audited, StateRAMP and TX-RAMP authorized, and aligned to NIST 800-53 controls. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, hosted in U.S. data centers, with role-based access controls and full audit logging. Our security documentation package is available before you sign anything.

Most jurisdictions go live in 8–12 weeks. A dedicated implementation manager handles data migration, configuration, and staff training. Your team’s time commitment is typically a few hours per week — we’ve built the process around the reality that your staff already have full-time jobs.

Yes. Pay rules, approval chains, role-based pay rates, union provisions, and state election-code requirements are all configurable — not custom code. When your ordinances or state statutes change, your administrators can update rules without a professional-services engagement.

Unify is built to WCAG 2.1 AA and designed for people who use it twice a year, not just power users. Poll workers onboard from a phone in minutes; supervisors approve time in two clicks. If your least technical election judge can use it, everyone can.

Every customer gets a named customer success manager, U.S.-based support with guaranteed response times, and priority coverage during election weeks — when it matters most. Training is included, with refreshers before each cycle for seasonal staff.
