LA WORKS PROUDLY ANNOUNCES
OUR NEWEST PRIMEWORKS CUSTOMER... BERKS COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA WORKFORCE INVESTMENT BOARD

LA Works has been selected to implement its commercially available Case Management/Client Tracking System, PrimeWorks, to manage Workforce Investment Act Program activities at the Berks County One-Stop Center in Reading, Pennsylvania.

IRWINDALE, CA -The Berks County Workforce Investment Board (PA) has purchased PrimeWorks, a client services tracking and case management software system developed by LA Works, for the Workforce Investment Act Program. Berks County will deploy PrimeWorks to support enrollment, program and services tracking, and performance information for all Workforce Investment Act programs.

Berks County is a One-Stop Workforce & Industry center; also known as a one-stop center, with its offices in Reading, Pennsylvania. Implementation work has begun with an anticipated in-use date of July 1, 2005. The center's staff members coordinate services for employment opportunities, resources to fill those opportunities, and training knowledge. With increased unemployment, the center needs automation to offer these services efficiently. Once implemented, PrimeWorks, a Web-based solution, will allow Berks County staff to more accurately log and track case information and seamlessly share information with partners to improve the delivery of services.
