Wite,* Dee NARRATIVE MR HIRE II The HIRE funds of $391,444 were accepted in June of 1978. The funds were aimed at placing 375 veterans in 0n-the-Job Training positions in private industry. The Pontiac Business Institute was identified as the service deliverer since subcontracting the program in whole was considered a more rapid means of implementing the program than expanding the Prime Sponsor's staff, or renegotiating the various Intake Agency contracts to include HIRE. The Public Services Committee required that this selection be voided and a competitive bid process used to select a HIRE service deliverer. The Pontiac Business Institute was the only offer received as a result of the bid process. The time lost by this process was considerable. Job developers were not in the field until late November. During this time period, additional HIRE funds of $391,444 were made available and accepted by Miscellaneous Resolution NO. 8498. However, as part of the grant all HIRE funds are to be obligated by March 31, 1979 and expended by September 30, 1979. Due to the late start imposed upon the Prime Sponsor, serious difficulties with meeting these deadlines are being experienced. Additional administrative funds, expanding the Prime Sponsor HIRE staff from two to four positions will partially assist in meeting the March 31, 1979 deadline for obligation and will allow adequate resources to expend those funds obligated by the September, 1979 deadline. The stability of the demonstration program after September 30, 1979 is uncertain, however, the program has been ardently advocated by both veteran groups and employers and has excellent potential to become an ongoing program. 716,888 66,000 782,888 Program O.J.T.
