Develop a skilled workforce that meets the needs of Pennsylvania's business community

Welcome to the Keystone Economic Development and Workforce Command Center Data Dashboard. The Command Center, created by executive order of Governor Tom Wolf in February 2019, brings an innovative approach to addressing the critical issue of training qualified workers for the jobs Pennsylvania companies need to fill.
Here you will find data related to four themes:
Economic Drivers of Pennsylvania's workforce outcomes, such as local employment growth and business activity;
Information on Pennsylvania's Labor Force, including the state's unemployment and labor force participation rates;
The performance of Pennsylvania's Education and Training programs; and
Barriers to employment for Pennsylvania job-seekers.
Content for the Data Dashboard is updating continually, so please check back often. For more information on the Keystone Economic Development and Workforce Command Center, visit the Command Center website at https://www.pasmart.gov/command-center/

The Quick Search and Advanced Search will search suppliers who are qualified for one or more Invitation to Qualify (ITQ) Contracts AND suppliers registered with the Bureau of Diversity, Inclusion and Small Business Opportunities (BDISBO) as a small business or small diverse business. Use the Quick Search to search by Vendor Name or Vendor Number. Use the Advanced Search to search by Small, Small Diverse, ITQ Contracts, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's Cooperative Purchasing Program (COSTARS) and United Nations Standard Products and Services Code (UNSPC) codes.
