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.

"Firm includes an individual proprietorship, partnership,
joint venture, association, corporation (including a development
corporation), business trust, cooperative, trustee in bankruptcy,
and receiver under decree of any court." 29 CFR 90.2
The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on April 25, 2016 by the State of Nebraska on behalf of
workers of ACI Worldwide Corporation, a subsidiary of ACI
Worldwide, Inc., Elkhorn, Nebraska (ACI). Workers of ACI are
engaged in activities related to the supply of information
technology services.
The subject worker group including on-site leased workers
from KBACE, Tallgrass Technologies, Ernst & Young, and CoSourcing
Partners.
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 ACI 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 shifted to a foreign country the supply of services like or
directly competitive with the services supplied by the subject
workers which contributed importantly to worker group separations at
ACI.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of ACI, who are engaged in
activities related to the supply of information technology
services, 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:
"All workers of ACI Worldwide Corporation, a subsidiary of
ACI Worldwide, Inc., including on-site leased workers from
KBACE, Tallgrass Technologies, Ernst & Young, and CoSourcing
Partners, Elkhorn, Nebraska, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after April 22, 2015 through
two years from the date of certification, and all workers in
the group threatened with total or partial separation from
employment on the date of certification through two years from
the date of certification, are eligible to apply for
adjustment assistance under Chapter 2 of Title II of the Trade
Act of 1974, as amended."
Signed in Washington, D.C. this 20th day of May 2016.
