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 27, 2018, by a state workforce office on
behalf of workers of ECi Macola/Max, LLC, Product Development,
Manufacturing Division, ECi Software Solutions, a subsidiary of
Eclipse Midco, Inc., including on-site leased workers from
Javasoft Inc. and Cardinal Solutions Group, including workers
whose wages were reported under ECi Software Solutions, Inc.,
Dublin, Ohio ("ECi Macola/Max, LLC"). The workers' firm is
engaged in activities related to the production of enterprise
resource planning (ERP) software used to manage business
accounting and back office needs. Associated services include
maintenance, implementation and customization services. The
subject worker group for which the petition was filed concerns
the firm's Product Development workers.
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 acquired from a foreign country articles like or
directly competitive with article produced by the workers which
contributed importantly to worker group separations at ECi
Macola/Max, LLC.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of ECi Macola/Max, LLC,
Product Development, Manufacturing Division, ECi Software
Solutions, a subsidiary of Eclipse Midco, Inc., including on-
site leased workers from Javasoft Inc. and Cardinal Solutions
Group, including workers whose wages were reported under ECi
Software Solutions, Inc., Dublin, Ohio, who are engaged in
activities related to the production of enterprise resource
planning (ERP) software, 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 ECi Macola/Max, LLC, Product Development,
Manufacturing Division, ECi Software Solutions, a
subsidiary of Eclipse Midco, Inc., including on-site
leased workers from Javasoft Inc. and Cardinal Solutions
Group, including workers whose wages were reported under
ECi Software Solutions, Inc., Dublin, Ohio, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
November 27, 2017, 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 3rd day of January 2019.
