Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance

In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as
amended ("Act"), 19 U.S.C. § 2273, the Department of Labor
herein presents the results of an investigation regarding
certification of eligibility to apply for worker adjustment
assistance.
The group eligibility requirements for workers of a firm
under Section 222(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a), are
satisfied if the following criteria are met:
(1) a significant number or proportion of the
workers in such workers' firm have become totally or
partially separated, or are threatened to become
totally or partially separated;
(2)(B)(i)(I) there has been a shift by the workers'
firm to a foreign country in the production of
articles or supply of services like or directly
competitive with those produced/supplied by the
workers' firm; OR
(II) there has been an acquisition from a
foreign country by the workers' firm of
articles/services that are like or directly
competitive with those produced/supplied by
the workers' firm; AND
(ii) the shift/acquisition must have contributed
importantly to the workers' separation or
threat of separation.

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on November 19, 2013 on behalf of workers of Advance Auto
Business Support, LLC, IT Department, a subsidiary of Advance
Stores Company, Incorporated, including on-site leased
workers, Roanoke, Virginia. The workers' firm is engaged in
activities related to the supply of application management
support services including minor enhancements and
customizations. The subject worker group includes on-site
leased workers from Accenture, Alliance of Professionals &
Consultants, American Staffing Group, LLC, Apex Systems Inc.,
CMAC, Inc., Creative Data Solutions, LLC, Paula P. White and
Associates Inc. dba Data Masters, DMLOGIC-001, Excella
Consulting, International Business Machines Corp., Infosys
Technologies, Miracle Software Systems, Inc., Modis, Inc.,
Morton Consulting, LLC, The Open Sky Group, LLC, Perficient,
Inc., Staffing Solutions Southeast, Inc. dba PROLOGISTIX, Red
Hat Inc., RedPrairie Corp., Star Collaborative LLC, Stibo
Catalog Inc. Stibo Systems Incorporated, Rcg Information
Technolgy, Inc., TEK Systems Inc., Virgo, Inc., World Tek
Inc., and Mutex Systems Inc.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant
number or proportion of the workers in such workers' firm have
become totally or partially separated, or are threatened to
become totally or partially separated.
Section 222(a)(2)(B) has been met because the workers'
firm has acquired from a foreign country services like or
directly competitive with services supplied by the workers which
contributed importantly to worker group separations at Advance
Auto Business Support.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Advance Auto Business
Support, LLC, IT Department, a subsidiary of Advance Stores
Company, Incorporated, including on-site leased workers,
Roanoke, Virginia, who are engaged in activities related to the
supply of application management support services including
minor enhancements and customizations meet the worker group
certification criteria under Section 222(a) of the Act, 19
U.S.C. § 2272(a). In accordance with Section 223 of the Act, 19
U.S.C. § 2273, I make the following certification:
