Case Study: ARUP Laboratories achieves a 363% increase in employees receiving recognition with Awardco

ARUP uses Awardco to celebrate service awards in style, increasing employee satisfaction

ARUP Laboratories, a national nonprofit and academic reference laboratory with over 4,000 employees, faced declining morale from a 20‑year old recognition program that offered limited, low‑quality awards and low engagement. To modernize recognition and give employees meaningful choice, ARUP selected Awardco’s recognition platform to replace their antiquated solution.

Using Awardco’s large reward catalog and configurable programs (including manager budgets for spot recognition), ARUP saw rapid adoption and measurable impact: a 363% increase in employees receiving recognition, a 200% increase in employees giving recognition, a 224% increase in departments using the program, 536% more manager recognitions, over 2,300 spot recognitions in one year, and an 18% boost in employee satisfaction with management — all driven by Awardco’s solution.
