MagicStar

Our MagicStar Workforce Development Program (WDP) will focus on synergistically leveraging the MagicSTAR system to assist with the placement of minority individuals and developing a stronger minority workforce. The Contractor Development platform will provide links to the forecasted Project Schedule, which establishes the type and timing of available jobs (THOR and subcontractors) on the project and enables the mobilization of the workforce development process. Local vocational training, universities and human capital development providers can access the MagicSTAR system to ensure the synchronization of training and job opportunities.

This program creates tractable reporting and opportunities for targeted workforce development partners to provide proactive corrective action for individual's workers. The desired outcomes are increased informational effi ciencies, workforce participation rates, labor force attachment rates and human capital acquisition; which ensures the success of new market entrants/re-entrants, building a minority stronger workforce, and positively impacting Indian country and its businesses.

In combination, these two development programs, leveraging our innovative technological platform, enable THOR to differentiate itself from our competition. Many fi rms will promise outcomes regarding minority-owned businesses and individuals, but in reality they do not possess the systems, programs or experience requisite to achieve optimal implementation and execution. We fully understand the needs of disadvantaged communities and have invested our fi nancial and human capital resources to ensure that we can deliver successful and measurable outcomes.
