DISCUSSION
Pacific Gateway administers the Federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) and other employment and training funds received annually by the City. Those funds support job training programs and business services delivered by the Career Transition Center, Harbor Gateway WorkSource Center, and selected community-based organizations to assist local residents acquire skills leading to employment in high-demand occupations with local employers.
Additionally, Pacific Gateway utilizes labor market information, industry feedback and trends to monitor hiring needs, and to ensure that local skill training design and investments are in industries that will most quickly improve, leading to re-employment for residents. For training programs that are not part of Pacific Gateway initiatives connected with local colleges and universities, customers are required by WIOA to select training providers procured and/or approved through the State’s Eligible Training Provider List (ETPL). Vendors under this State list are exempt from other local procurement, as mandated by WIOA. Once customers select a vendor from the State list, Pacific Gateway initiates an agreement and a Blanket Purchase Order (BPO) to accommodate costs of training. Once the BPO is anticipated to exceed $100,000, Pacific Gateway obtains City Council approval to initiate an increase in the BPO and, as applicable, a full contract.
Relative to the new YouthSource Center at the Harbor area, Pacific Gateway will be partnering with Boys and Girls Club of the Los Angeles Harbor (BGCHLA) to ensure program deliverables and attainment of program performance for the in-school portion of the WIOA contract. BGCHLA is a required partner, as mandated by the City of Los Angeles, under the YouthSource contract.
Pacific Gateway will continue to partner with these various training and service providers outlined below, based on customer demand. Pacific Gateway requests contract or Blanket Purchase Order increases and renewals for the coming months for existing vendors with current agreements with the City.
