Dispatching Efficiency
We create and maintain a set of online tools that allow dispatchers and stagehands to communicate quickly and efficiently about the availability of work.
Administrators are provided the ability to quickly share information, keeping private information private and public information transparent.
User actions and data are logged, creating a record of accountability and building on institutional memory.
Our tools enhance the ability of the local, the dispatcher, the employer, and the stagehand to get to work with greater efficiency and better information.

See What Call Steward Can Do For You
Organize
Get all your jobs in one place. Attach files and notes. Share them online with other administrators, dispatchers, and stewards. Keep focused on what needs to be dispatched next. Find information fast and get off the phone faster.
Create
Detail call sheets, and find the most skilled and most available employees fast. Users can also log-in, so information is relevant, allowing you to do your job with more efficiency.
Dispatch
Gather confirmations online. Call Steward notifies your users of new work via email, text, and on our app. Confirmations come fast because members participate and know when every job is published. Dispatch is done and the sign-in sheet is printed.
Pay
We customize your existing payroll into your own template that is backed up and access logged. Dispatch data is pushed from Call Steward to the template. With the report filled out, make your edits and share it to a payroll agent.

Testimonials
What Our Clients Think
Late or no-show worker rates dropped to almost nothing. Members work more. We were not expecting that. But since the program shows you everyone's availability, we found that our members worked more and our extras worked a lot less. Call Steward has made us a really stable workforce.
The members have all said that they feel that Call Steward has increased their income. Being able to see the work available allows them to plan their life. It actually saves us money. Before Call Steward, when we would get really busy, we had to hire a couple extra people to make calls and keep track of who was going where.
It immediately changed our lives, and the Business Agent's life, for the better. What used to take a stack of legal pads and hours on the phone was significantly reduced. Large calls can now be filled in half the time it used to take us in the "old days". As our volume of work has increased over the last few years, we have become more efficient in managing our workforce. Workers now can state their preferences, and request holiday off time, personal days, and recurring unavailability...
