The message is clear: Our information is not for sale.
For years, outside corporations and data-scrapers have been profiting off the backs of the IBEW membership or trying to at least. They package our job calls, our wage scales, and our collective hard work, then sell it back to us or use it to line their own pockets.
Enough is enough.
We didn’t build Tramp GPS to be another middleman. We built this platform as a digital stronghold, a place where information is centralized for the member base and controlled by the people who actually do the work.
Starting next week, we are officially launching Local Union Hall Access & Control. We are giving the keys to the digital kingdom back to the Locals, for free.
Zero Profit on Member Data: We are a business, but our model is built on the vendors and contractors who benefit from our collective attention, never by selling member-owned information.
Member-Owned Content: Information that belongs to the members should be free to the members. Period.
Direct Control: Local Union representatives can now take direct control of their Hall on Tramp GPS to ensure every brother and sister has the most accurate, real-time data available.
The Call to Action
We have reached out to the offices and the Internationals. Now, we are reaching out to you.
To the Members: Reach out to your Business Manager. Tell them the platform is ready, the access is free, and it’s time to claim our space.
To the Local Reps: The "Tapestry" is already built. The members are already here. Stand up, take control of your Hall, and let’s secure our future.
It’s time to move the trades into the future on our own terms.
