DALLAS, TX, March, 11, 2008. UniFocus, a global pioneer in the hospitality industry for performance, workforce management and closed-loop feedback solutions, announced that Prism Hotels & Resorts has partnered with UniFocus to develop an effective employee survey designed to deliver crystal clear results. UniFocus' STAFFScope, a Web-based employee survey program, helped Prism identify staff concerns and gain real-time actionable intelligence to effect changes that positively impact every aspect of their operations.

Prism Hotels & Resorts is one of America's fastest-growing hotel management companies. Prism currently manages more than 26 properties in the greater United States, representing more than 5,500 guestrooms.

"The company's confidence, organization, and passion for creating surveys are second to none.

"We are thrilled that a prominent management company such as Prism Hotels & Resorts chose to partner with UniFocus to help re-engage their staff," Heymann continued.
