A labor organization's primary function is to provide service to its membership. To reduce the ever-expanding administrative workload facing the officers and staff of a local union, Union Computer Services, LLC (formerly a division of Information Systems Consultants, Inc.) developed a computer system known as ALPS; the Automated Local Processing System.
Since each individual local union is unique and requires a versatile computer system tailored to meet its specific needs, UCS has worked with a wide variety of labor unions to design and implement one of the most flexible and comprehensive computer systems available. Proper utilization of its many features can alleviate a number of time-consuming clerical tasks, thus enabling a local to provide more efficient, accurate and personal service to  its members.
