Philadelphia Job Corps Center

The Department of Labor Office of Job Corps Philadelphia Job Corps Center is a civilian sub-agency within the Department of Labor that operates a job training facility and procures services and supplies in support of its training mission at the Philadelphia location. The Center has awarded a small contract portfolio totaling eight federal contract awards since 2011, with most recent activity dating to December 2021.

The Philadelphia Job Corps Center has obligated $125.4 million across $576.5 million in combined award potential value. Award activity has been sparse and irregular: two awards in 2011, four awards in 2017, one in 2018, and one in 2021. No awards are recorded for 2022 through 2026, indicating minimal recent contracting activity over the last several years. The Center has worked with six distinct prime contractors across its portfolio history.

Among awards in the last five years, Adams and Associates Inc. holds the only recorded recent contract award, a single contract valued at $52.4 million in potential value and representing 100 percent of recent awards by count and 9 percent of combined portfolio potential value by dollar value. The remaining five historical contractors appear in the pre-2021 award record. Competitive concentration at the Center is highly fragmented when measured by potential value, with the single recent awardee accounting for only 9 percent of the Center's lifetime combined contract value.

The set-aside mix skews toward open competition: 63 percent of awards (five contracts) carried no set-aside designation, while 38 percent (three awards) were designated for Total Small Business. No 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or WOSB set-asides are recorded in the Center's portfolio.

No recent federal contract opportunities are recorded against the Philadelphia Job Corps Center as of the current date. The absence of open solicitations and the four-year gap since the most recent award suggests minimal active procurement activity at this facility. Business development professionals evaluating contract pursuit should treat this Center as inactive for current opportunity planning.
