Outreach

Walsh Kokosing wants to make it easy for people and firms to learn about opportunities on the project. Our Business and Workforce Engagement (BWE) Team leads the effort to reach out to people, firms, and organizations that want to get involved in the project or help spread the word about opportunities.

Business and Workforce Engagement (BWE) Program

Walsh Kokosing Joint Venture (WKJV) has developed a Business and Workforce Engagement (BWE) Program designed to identify, educate, and assist DBE and potential DBE firms to become involved in the project.

BWE Task Forces

The BWE Task Forces tap into the wealth of knowledge within the community to ensure the BWE Program is as effective as possible. Each task force is comprised of members of the Walsh Kokosing team, the Bi-State Management Team, and representatives from organizations that have expertise, ideas, and connections to share with the team. Working as partners, these task forces meet regularly to guide the team’s efforts. Three task forces have been formed to date:

  • Business Development Task Force

  • Workforce Task Force

  • Community Engagement Task Force
