Start Smart's Workforce Expertise in Action:
Construction Laborer Job Readiness Assessment 
​(Case Study)

Client: Enterprise Homes & Providence Community Housing (2014-2016)

Project: Faubourg Lafitte Housing Redevelopment 

Scope: DBE, WBE and U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Section 3 compliance management and workforce consulting for the $161 million dollar public housing redevelopment.

Problem: The prime contractor had difficulty hiring and retaining qualified HUD Section 3 low-skilled employees to work on the project.  As a result, the prime contractor was at risk of non-compliance with HUD Section 3 employment requirements.

Solution: After meeting with the prime contractor and analyzing the need, Smart Smart developed the Construction Laborer Job Readiness Assessment to help the prime contractor and tier one subcontractors improve the process of recruiting, hiring and retaining quality construction laborers and helpers on the project.  

​​Impact: The Assessment helped the prime contractor exceed the HUD Section 3 employment goal by 145% and remain in compliance with HUD requirements.
