To meet the requirements of the WIOA legislation, and in an effort to benefit from economies of scale and to leverage resources, the four jurisdictions work cooperatively in grant acquisition, service design, contracting, and purchasing, and jointly use the services of the contractor to carry out responsibilities on behalf of the EBRPU under the EASTBAY Works (EBW) umbrella.
