LM089321 Dear Dr. Weber: The General Accounting Office has made a survey of two Department of Labor (DOL) contracts awarded to the Chicago Urban League (CUL) for the purpose of promoting on-the-job (OJT) training in the Chicago area under the Manpower Development and Training Act of 1962, as amended. Our survey was directed primarily to CUL's contract performance during the period fcomn September 15, 1968, to May 31, 1969, but also included some review of GUL's OJT contract operations prior to this period. Our survey was made pursuanL to authority contained in the Budget and Accounting Act, 1921 (31 U.S.C.53) and the Accounting and Auditing Act of 1950 (31 U.S.C. 67)and to specific authority contained in the contracts. CUL has received two contracts from DOL, the first dating back to June 30, 1965. The first contract called for CUL to subcontract with local business and industry for the training of a minimum of 300 unemployed or undocomployed persons in entry-level, skill improvement or skiLl conversion cype positions during the period from June 30, 1965, through July 31, LZ. 10 contract amount was $237,324. Six modifications were made to the con- LeacL which extended the contract period to September 15, 1967, and incrumsed the number of trainee positions to 525 with no increase in the contract ount. The second contract called for CUL to subcontract for the training of 900 unemployed and underemployed persons, primarily in entry-level positions, nt a cost of $421,712 during the period September 15, 1967, to September 1, 1938. Additional funds of $84,000 from the Office of Economic Opportunity ware provided for administration in connection with a separate CUL agree- iu nL with The Woodlawn Organization. This agreement was incorporated ino the basic DOL contract and allocated 500 of the 900 OJT positions for train- ing of youths from the target area of The Woodlawn Organization. The Illinois rtate Employment Service (ISES) was responsible under this contract for certifying the eligibility of persons participating in the 0JT program. CUL's second contract was subsequently modified to extend the contract pcriod from September 15, 1968 through September 15, 1969, while reducing he numher of training positions to 522 and DOL funds to $343,817. The contra:L was again modified in September 1969 to extend the contract to December 31, 1969 to allow for fulfillment of the contract. llll l l I 5iil ll2
