The Unifocal Answers
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Unifocal.
How do subcontractors submit payroll data?
Subcontractors receive a simple email link each pay period. No login required, no training needed. They input their payroll data in a mobile-friendly form that takes about 2 minutes to complete. Unifocal automatically validates the data and updates your dashboard in real-time.
What certifications and requirements does Unifocal support?
Unifocal supports all major federal and local requirements including Section 3 (HUD), MBE/WBE (Minority/Women Business Enterprise), DBE (Disadvantaged Business Enterprise), VOSB (Veteran-Owned Small Business), SDVOSB, BIPOC inclusion targets, apprentice programs, and more. We also support custom requirements specific to your jurisdiction.
How long does implementation take?
Most teams are up and running within one week. We help you set up your projects, configure your compliance goals, and onboard your subcontractors. There's no complex software installation or IT requirements—Unifocal is a web-based platform that works from any browser.
Is my data secure?
Absolutely. Unifocal uses bank-level encryption for all data in transit and at rest. We're SOC 2 compliant and conduct regular security audits. Your sensitive payroll and workforce data is protected with role-based access controls, ensuring only authorized team members can view specific information.
Can I export data for audits and reporting?
Yes. Unifocal provides comprehensive export capabilities in multiple formats (Excel, PDF, CSV). Generate instant reports showing compliance status, workforce demographics, spending breakdowns, and more. All reports include complete audit trails with timestamps and data sources.
What if I have multiple projects with different requirements?
Unifocal handles this easily. Each project can have its own compliance goals, budgets, and requirements. Track everything from a single dashboard, or drill down into individual projects. Subcontractors working across multiple projects submit payroll once, and Unifocal automatically allocates the data correctly.
