University of Maryland Eastern Shore becomes first MEAC institution to partner with Teamworks General Manager


PRINCESS ANNE, Maryland | The University of Maryland Eastern Shore has adopted Teamworks General Manager (GM), a comprehensive platform that consolidates roster management, budgeting, contracts, and payment processing, as the Hawks prepare for the evolving demands of collegiate athletics' revenue share era. UMES becomes the first MEAC (Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference) institution to implement the platform in preparation for the upcoming season.
 
 
"This strategic technology investment underscores the dedication to operational innovation and further solidifies our institution in this new landscape of collegiate athletics and business practices. At UMES, we continue to be forward-thinking in our efforts to maximize opportunities and resources for our student-athletes," Vice President of Athletics and Recreation Tara A. Owens says. "Teamworks General Manager adds a powerful resource for our coaches, student-athletes, and administrators. As we strive for success in the classroom, in competition and in the community, this partnership is in alignment with our vision while promoting sustainable and dynamic student-athlete support."
 
 
UMES continues to cultivate a top-tier technological infrastructure through their current Teamworks portfolio which also features:
 
•  Compliance & Recruiting
•  Influencer
•  Academics
•  Hub
 
 
The addition of General Manager transforms this foundation into a powerful operational hub that maximizes their existing investments while introducing advanced administrative capabilities.
 
 
The Teamworks Operating System for Sports™ creates a cohesive operational framework where General Manager integrates with Teamworks Hub. This connection facilitates data sharing of athlete profiles, roster details, and administrative information across systems, breaking down information barriers and maintaining data consistency throughout the athletic department. The connected platform approach allows the Gamecocks to maximize their current Teamworks infrastructure while unlocking GM's sophisticated features, generating operational efficiencies that boost productivity and simplify administrative workflows.
 
 
Teamworks General Manager provides UMES with cutting-edge capabilities including flexible roster modeling, customizable athlete categorization, streamlined payment systems, and detailed financial oversight. These resources enable the Hawks to manage their athletic operations with analytical depth and strategic foresight.
