Gainsville Job Corps Center

The Department of Labor Office of Job Corps Gainsville Job Corps Center is a sub-agency within the federal workforce development system that administers job training and career services at a regional training facility. The center operates as a contracting office for its operational and support needs.

The center's contract portfolio is sparse and episodic. It has issued four federal contract awards since 2014, totaling $77.7 million in combined potential value with $29.9 million obligated to date. Awards clustered in 2014–2017, then remained inactive until a single award in June 2026. The most recent recorded award date is June 18, 2026. This low volume and irregular cadence reflect the center's limited need for new contract engagements relative to its ongoing operational structure.

Competitive concentration is highly fragmented. Three distinct prime contractors have been awarded over the life of the portfolio, with The Wright Way Enterprises LLC holding the single most recent award (June 2026) and accounting for $1.3 million in potential value. By count and by value within the last five years, The Wright Way Enterprises LLC represents 100 percent of recent awards and 2 percent of combined potential value — a position reflecting the portfolio's thin recent activity rather than sustained dominance. The remaining two historical awardees do not appear in the last five years.

Set-asides are uncommon. Seventy-five percent of awards are issued without set-aside designation. One award (25 percent) carries a HUBZone set-aside.

No recent federal contract opportunities are recorded against the center. No grant-award or grant-opportunity activity is recorded against the center or its parent offices.

The center's contract activity pattern — four awards spanning twelve years with a four-year gap preceding the most recent award — suggests ad hoc procurement driven by facility operations and maintenance rather than sustained competitive solicitation. Vendors pursuing work here should monitor the center's contracting office directly for irregular opportunities aligned with center operations, renovation, or service requirements.
