A modern Trade Union faces a number of challenges, from recruitment and retention of members through the processing of data which in turn supports the officers in their representation of the membership. A database needs to assist in all of these, and more besides.
Whether you represent members in a single sector or across a number of sectors Stratum is able to work in the way you need and to adapt to the changes your union may undergo. We recognise the need to group members in differing ways; where they work, who they work for and how they are paid are just some examples. Your membership may be organised into regions and branches with all appropriate reporting at these levels. Most of all we understand the regulatory environment in which a Trade Union operates making sure Stratum conforms at all times to changes in this area.

Promoting Two Way Communication
Stratum is always available for remote access, empowering people on the ground with the information needed to represent the membership at grass roots level. Members benefit directly from web integration through facilities for on-line join and management of their personal details, preferences and payment options.
Our union found in the Stratum system the integrated system we needed combining in one package membership processing, inquiry and case management, data analysis, campaign management and membership communication. When we combine all this with an interface between Stratum and our Atwone CMS developed website we get a powerful package that reinforces our communication with members and helps maintain data accuracy with members able to update their contact details on line.
