Case Study: Mission Driven Research achieves streamlined reporting and real-time data with Unanet

Mission Driven Research Overcomes Legacy ERP Challenges by Jumping to Unanet

Mission Driven Research (MDR) provides technical services to the U.S. government and has grown rapidly to 53 employees. After moving from spreadsheets to a competitor ERP, the company ran into poor usability, costly add‑ons and consultants, lagging timekeeping, payroll reporting issues, and inconsistent support, prompting MDR to look for a project-based ERP that could deliver reliable, timely reporting and a better user experience.

MDR implemented Unanet GovCon ERP with quick, supported onboarding and a user-friendly interface that provided real‑time data, stronger reporting, and improved payroll collaboration. The change cut labor reporting from days to about 20 minutes, improved month‑end dashboards, delivered responsive customer support, and lowered total cost of ownership while increasing adoption across the company.
