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 April 28, 2016 by a state workforce office on behalf
of workers of Epicor Software Corporation, a subsidiary of EGL
Holdco, Inc., including on-site leased workers from EAO
Computing, Ruthann Ford, Michael Iupe, Bill Bohls, Corey
Blay, Iupe & Blay LLC, Accounting Principals, Bridgepoint
Consulting, Insight Global, Providence Partners, The HT Group,
and Zero Chaos, Austin, Texas (TA-W-91,753) and Epicor
Software Corporation, a subsidiary of EGL Holdco, Inc.,
Hyannis, Massachusetts (TA-W-91,753A). The workers' firms are
engaged in activities related to the production of computer
software (Austin, Texas location TA-W-91,753) and support and
consulting services (both Austin, Texas and Hyannis,
Massachusetts locations).
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the petitioner and 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 shifted to a foreign country the production of an
article like or directly competitive with the article produced
by the workers which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at Epicor Software Corporation, a subsidiary of
EGL Holdco, Inc., including on-site leased workers from EAO
Computing, Ruthann Ford, Michael Iupe, Bill Bohls, Corey
Blay, Iupe & Blay LLC, Accounting Principals, Bridgepoint
Consulting, Insight Global, Providence Partners, The HT Group,
and Zero Chaos, Austin, Texas (TA-W-91,753) and Epicor
Software Corporation, a subsidiary of EGL Holdco, Inc.,
Hyannis, Massachusetts (TA-W-91,753A).
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Epicor Software
Corporation, a subsidiary of EGL Holdco, Inc., including on-
site leased workers from EAO Computing, Ruthann Ford, Michael
Iupe, Bill Bohls, Corey Blay, Accounting Principals,
Bridgepoint Consulting, Insight Global, Providence Partners,
The HT Group, and Zero Chaos, Austin, Texas (TA-W-91,753) and
Epicor Software Corporation, a subsidiary of EGL Holdco, Inc.,
Hyannis, Massachusetts (TA-W-91,753A), who are engaged in
activities related to the production of computer software
(Austin, Texas location TA-W-91,753) and support and
consulting services (both Austin, Texas and Hyannis,
Massachusetts locations) 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 Epicor Software Corporation, a subsidiary
of EGL Holdco, Inc., including on-site leased workers
from EAO Computing, Ruthann Ford, Michael Iupe, Bill
Bohls, Corey Blay, Iupe & Blay LLC, Accounting
Principals, Bridgepoint Consulting, Insight Global,
Providence Partners, The HT Group, and Zero Chaos,
Austin, Texas (TA-W-91,753) and Epicor Software
Corporation, a subsidiary of EGL Holdco, Inc., Hyannis,
Massachusetts (TA-W-91,753A), who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after April 27,
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 31st day of May 2016.
