New Haven Job Corps Center

The Department of Labor Office of Job Corps New Haven Job Corps Center is a civilian sub-agency within the Department of Labor responsible for operating a residential training facility for disadvantaged youth. The New Haven center manages contract procurement for facility operations, workforce development services, and related support functions.

Contract activity at the New Haven center is sparse and irregular. Eight federal contract awards have been issued since 2008, with combined potential value of $223.8 million and combined dollars obligated of $138.5 million (62% of potential value). Recent award cadence shows 2 awards in 2015, 1 award in 2016, 1 award in 2017, 1 award in 2018, and 1 award in 2022; the most recent award closed in November 2022. Across the portfolio's 4 distinct prime contractors, competitive concentration is highly fragmented. Over the last five years, The Bizzell Group LLC is the only recent awardee on record with 1 award valued at $43 million potential value, representing 19% of combined potential value across the limited recent window.

The set-aside mix is dominated by unrestricted awards. Six of eight awards (75%) carried no set-aside designation, while two awards (25%) were designated as Total Small Business set-asides.

No recent contract opportunities are recorded against the New Haven center. The sparse and irregular award cadence over the past four years, combined with the absence of open solicitation activity, suggests minimal current procurement velocity at this sub-agency.
