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 January 3, 2019 by a state workforce office on behalf
of workers of Tangoe US, Inc., Operations-Service Excellence
Organization, Parsippany, New Jersey (Tangoe, Operations-
Service Excellence). Workers of Tangoe, Operations-Service
Excellence are engaged in activities related to the supply of
operational management services. The subject worker group
includes remote/teleworkers who reside in various locations,
including but not limited to New Jersey, New York, and
Virginia.
Workers of Tangoe US, Inc., Operations-Service Excellence
Organization, Parsippany, New Jersey are not eligible to apply
for Trade Adjustment Assistance under TA-W-94,309.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm and the petition.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant
number or proportion of the workers in Tangoe, Operations-
Service Excellence 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 a portion of the supply of
services like or directly competitive with the operational
management services supplied by the subject workers which
contributed importantly to worker group separations at Tangoe,
Operations-Service Excellence.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Tangoe US, Inc.,
Operations-Service Excellence Organization, Parsippany, New
Jersey, who are engaged in activities related to the supply of
operational management 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 the Tangoe US, Inc., Operations-Service
Excellence Organization, Parsippany, New Jersey, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
January 2, 2018 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 25th day of January 2019.
