Julie Won

Okay, and out of the $1.7 million, there's a set-aside of $388,200 for contractual services in the OCH budget.

Julie Won

How many and what type of contracts does this funding support?

Member of the Public - G. Lee

So our office is investing in technology to effectively and efficiently implement, scale, and track the program.

Member of the Public - G. Lee

So these investments are not only going to support community hiring, but the data that we're able to collect will really be used for a broader impact across the workforce system.

Julie Won

Got it.

Julie Won

So the entire $388,200 goes to one technology budget or contract?

Member of the Public - G. Lee

We're trying to look at it for all different types of technology.

Julie Won

How many tech contracts are we talking about?

Member of the Public - G. Lee

There's nothing currently in the works, but we're working through that.

Julie Won

Okay, so the money is unspent.
