Cover Signature Page Included as Attachment A. II. Proposal Narrative A. Problem Statement Employers within Weld and Adams counties recognize the importance of adopting sustainable manufacturing processes. Sustainability comes in many forms, but business leaders know saving time and energy, reducing waste and creating a safe and efficient workplace improves their bottom line. They know that to be competitive in the global economy, pursuit of energy and resource efficiency in manufacturing is no longer an option or a desire—it is a requirement. As Colorado and the United States struggle with lower-cost labor markets overseas and continued productivity enhancements throughout the manufacturing sector, companies who survive and thrive are those whose processes optimize power, materials and water. Recent attention to environmental sustainability raises the value of business and manufacturing process improvements that Colorado firms are pursuing. Movement towards a more sustainable manufacturing sector can address both business and environmental priorities, and will underpin the competitiveness of Weld and Adams counties. The Weld/Adams region has great potential to become an important center for Sustainable Manufacturing. Recent Labor Market Information shows the Weld/Adams county areas of Colorado growing in population by 50 and 27 percent respectively (http://lmigateway.coworkforce.com/lmigateway/default.aso). Weld and Adams counties represent an attractive location for manufacturers due to their proximity to the Denver area's highly-educated workforce; an existing base of sustainable manufacturers in the alternative energy, agriculture and advanced manufacturing subsectors; proximity to critical shipping and distribution resources; and substantial land available for industrial development. The region has already attracted a number of businesses that both manufacture in a sustainable manner and produce components and products for the alternative energy and energy efficiency markets. The recruitment and preparation of an adequate workforce remains a key issue to ensure the success of these firms as well as additional local, national and international sustainable businesses that may relocate to or expand within Weld and Adams counties. While the region is well-positioned to become a center for sustainable manufacturing, developing a coherent yet flexible strategy to prepare the workforce remains a significant challenge. The region's education and training systems offer a number of learning opportunities important to supporting manufacturers' skill needs, but a coordinated approach to meeting the specific needs of sustainable manufacturers must be developed. Page 1 Surveys conducted during the planning phase of the Sustainable Manufacturing SECTORS grant revealed that many employers are implementing some aspects of sustainable manufacturing however most do not pursue sustainability according to rigorous standards or categories of work. Indeed, many manufacturers are still struggling to understand how sustainability features can be incorporated into their operations and must address those concerns prior to developing specific training and development plans. Benchmarks for determining the efficacy of sustainability measures are also lacking. This initial phase of the planning process has identified many avenues through which investment in skills development and educational programming can advance sustainability strategies, but due to the ill-defined and fragmented nature of how sustainability is pursued, specific priorities are not clear for who needs training and of what kind. It is necessary to present employers with skill development options and modes so that they may more deliberately define the type, depth and delivery of need as it emerges and evolves. B. Industry and Region of Focus In recent years the state of Colorado has emerged as a leader in the renewable energy industry and this emphasis is apparent in the Weld/Adams region as the industry and its sub-clusters gather here. Through the partnership of government, economic development agencies and workforce centers, the region has attracted several emerging industries which serve to position the region as industry leaders for the sustainability manufacturing movement. Specifically in Weld County, the manufacturing industry is the fastest growing sector, increasing 15% between 2007 and 2008 with a sub-industry wholesale trade increase of roughly 70% for the same time periond. There have been several international companies that have selected Weld County for new site locations, specifically Vestas Blades (world leader in wind energy choosing Weld County as its new North American headquarters and includes two Blade plants and a Nacelles plant), JBS Swift (the world's largest beef processor), Bach Composites (Danish supplier to Vestas) and UQM (a manufacturer of electric motors). The addition of these industries, complimented by the economic development of other manufacturing and solar technology firms to the area(Leprino Foods, Abound Solar and Hexcel Inc.) represent the creation of just under 4000 new jobs. In Adams County there are a number of emerging industries that indicate an increasingly dynamic economy such as food manufacturing, freight transportation, construction and the utilities industries all of which have average wages of$40K and above. Each of these incumbent and emerging industries/ companies would benefit from this implementation plan under the SECTORS initiative and its goal to establish sustainable practices. Labor Market Information conducted in September of 2009 shows the overall population in 2007 for the entire state of Colorado as 4,861,515 while the populations for the Weld and Adams counties are respectively 243,750 and 422,495 representing 13.7% of the state's total population - a 27.1% population increase between 1997 and 2007 for Adams County and 50.9%increase over the same time period for Weld County. This data clearly illustrates the increase in human capital in the area, and therefore the availability of the regions workforce (totaling 120,783 in Weld County and 221,638 for Adams County). Page 2 To support the regional workforce development there is further data (provided by both LMI and JobsEQ) identifying that the educational makeup of Weld and Adams county residents is within national averages. Breaking down these numbers we see that nationally 84% of the population has a high school diploma or higher; in Weld County this number is 84.9% and in Adams County 80.2%. Furthermore the national average for residents holding a bachelors degree or higher is 27% while these percentages are 21.6% for Weld County and 19.2% for Adams County. C. Measurements and Outcomes Tracking industry progress requires certain benchmarks be developed to address effectiveness of processes in place. In the initial phase of the Weld/Adams Sustainable Manufacturing Alliance (WASMA) implementation grant, the Leadership Team will work with the participating employers to define how success should and will be measured. The categories of measurement are detailed in the Evaluation Framework (Attachment B) but will also include: • Business Measurements such as availability of skilled workers, revenues, costs, safety, and tracking ability • Efficiency Measurements such as energy usage/recovery, scrap rates, waste disposal, water usage • Staffing Measurements such as retention rates, interview-to-hire ratio for new employees, rate of internal advancement and/or wage increase, expansion of job descriptions, utilization of tuition on efficiency-related education and training. • Partnership Measurements such as the establishment of the WASMA Leadership Team which will foster the collaboration of education, workforce, Economic Development and employers to respond to business needs and create innovative partnerships to disseminate plans of action, goals, best practices and metrics. Leadership Team members will outline a rubric to measure the WASMA implementation project's success in terms of: Implementation Area Ongoing Measurement The WASAM Leadership Team profile Are we working with the right stakeholders? WASMA Mission Is this a concise and effective driving force behind the greater purpose of the Alliance? PR campaign Are we reaching the desired audience? How will that be determined? Industry workforce employer/employee Are they helpful/useful in terms of services sustainability in manufacturing? Periodic reviews of services will be conducted to determine the level of effectiveness. The Alliance will track levels of membership generally and levels of participation in particular initiatives. Implementing these benchmarks will prove the best check and balance for both the members and targeted audience the Alliance serves. Educational offering implementation and subsequent measurements of those offerings will require significant collaboration between the industry workforce and instructional staff. The first step in the process is to determine course objectives in relation to job position and sustainability Page 3 objectives and making sure there is a clear line of connection between the two. Setting a percentage benchmark for program enrollment, completion and job retention provides a clear and concise manner in which effectiveness of the sustainable curriculum can be measured. As indicated in Attachment B (SECTORS Initiative Evaluation Framework) the WASMA implementation will also include training existing and new workers through education programs covering manufacturing and sustainable manufacturing issues and then placing the new workers in sustainable manufacturing employment opportunities. Attachment B specifies the number of individuals to be trained and placed and the anticipated average wage for those individuals. III. Strategic Work Plan The past collaboration of Employment Services of Weld County, Upstate Colorado Economic Development, Brighton Economic Development, Adams County Economic Development and Adams Workforce has produced a concerted regional effort successful in business attraction, retention,job creation and sustainability. The continuation of collaborative efforts from this partnership forms the foundation on which the formation of the Weld/Adams Sustainable Manufacturing Alliance (WASMA) will be built whose goal is to address employer needs in sustainable manufacturing and clean energy to achieve incumbent employee retention and promotion, promote and encourage hiring displaced workers, and energy conservation through education and training in the Weld/Adams region. Achieving this goal will entail promoting the multi-industry skills and technical qualifications of the participating industries, tailoring education and training to meet the industry's identified needs and requirements, developing strategies that will align resources and create new programs to meet the identified needs, identifying resources and organizations to facilitate growth of the Alliance and apply the lessons learned from this initiative to disseminate to other industry sectors. Fulfilling its promise as a center for sustainable manufacturing will require the WASMA to implement a number of innovative strategies: (1) Help employers specify, prioritize and measure skill development needs in its workforce (both prospective and incumbent workers). This would include identifying key learner populations and ensuring that regional education and training systems are able to provide instruction that addresses the skills and competencies needed to help the manufacturers move towards sustainability. Additionally, the Alliance will need to develop a metrics to measure impact of the various training programs. (2) Develop/expand the existing education and training offerings so their value to sustainability is recognized and amplified. (3) Increase the delivery opportunities for training through educational non-credit bearing courses, certificates and/or degree programs to enhance the skills of the existing or emerging workforce. Offer tuition subsidies and deploy job seeker services to low-income individuals and displaced and incumbent workers for training and educational certificates and/or degree programs to assist them in obtaining employment or promotions and providing the targeted Page 4 industry with a more highly-skilled workforce. To enhance the regions ability to serve businesses focusing on sustainable manufacturing, will require the establishment of targeted industry employer services. (4) Through the WASMA, create and promote a culture of sustainability between existing and potential manufacturing firms, the current and emerging workforce, secondary and , post-secondary education and training providers, and the broader business support community. The Alliance will also offer tools and resources that will serve the human capital and other needs of regional sustainable manufacturers. The strategic work plan included as Attachment C - "Work Plan Timeline & Outcomes" details the proposed schedule for addressing these economic development and educational goals in support of the WASMA for the region. IV. Partner Roles and Responsibilities and MOU Employment Services of Weld County (ESWC) and Adams County Workforce and Business Center(ACWBC) are federally recognized workforce regions. It is the intent of the WASMA SECTORS Implementation Grant to designate Upstate Colorado Economic Development as the Convener for this initiative. A strong leadership team of public-private partners will oversee the project and the WASMA's industry-workforce-education partnership model will be dynamic, building and recruiting on the Leadership Teams convening organization members, relationships, industry contacts and professional networks. The WASMA Leadership Team (identified in Attachment D- Memorandum of Understanding) will be structured to serve in various capacities and will develop specific commitments, roles and responsibilities among the partners, stakeholders and industry participants, and will include: Employers: Executive-level representatives from private industry will provide guidance to the partners, serve as spokespeople to the media and the general public, provide input in order to prioritize key sustainability roles and sustainability skill-sets, serve as pilot sites for training and learning activities, and measure progress according to the metrics established. Following the initial steps of implementation, these employers will contribute to the creation of the Alliance mission and guide its strategic and practical development. Key employers who are committed to sustainability will serve as advisory board members, and following the formal creation of WASMA will be asked to serve as steering committee members, serve as spokespeople for the WASMA, recruit new members, and continue to provide input into development of new learning opportunities. As appropriate, employer partners may serve as adjunct instructors for education and training programs delivered at the colleges, via seminar and webinar. Industry Participants: Abound Solar: Abound Solar is a manufacturer of thin-film solar photovoltaic modules based in Weld County. Abound's mission is to produce low-cost solar modules to enable solar electricity to compete with fossil fuels. Abound's products and processes support sustainability, and Abound intends to expand their training under the auspices of the WASMA SECTORS Implementation Grant. Page 5 Golden Aluminum: Also located in Weld County, Golden Aluminum is a mini-mill that produces rolled aluminum for delivery to manufacturing locations throughout the world. Golden Aluminum's Mission Statement reads: "Help our customers to feed the world with safe, innovative, and environmentally conscious solutions for packaging applications. " Golden Aluminum manufactures the following products from recycled aluminum: • Tab stock, bare and coated, beverage and food • Food and other provisional containers • E-cleanTM process aluminum Proprietary ultra-clean aluminum for high tech applications • Architectural products including window blinds and window components • FDA coated aluminum supplier • Food end and body stock • Wine and beverage caps and closures • Building and construction products • License plate stock Golden Aluminum is evaluating the application of a TPM (Total Productive Maintenance) program which is a critical adjunct to lean manufacturing; therefore, implementing TPM will result in incumbent employee advancement and increased sustainability. Educational Institutions: To address employer needs for sustainable manufacturing through educational offerings in the region, representatives of Aims Community College and Front Range Community Colleges and representatives of the regions workforce centers and their Workforce Boards will serve on the leadership team. In 2008, through funds provided by the WIRED initiative, Employment Services of Weld County in collaboration with and Aims Community College developed the Multi-Industry Systems Technician (MIST) program to meet the needs of manufacturing and energy employers. The MIST program will serve as a template for industry-specific training for participants in the WASMA SECTORS implementation grant and additional instructional components will be added as appropriate to meet the identified needs for sustainable manufacturing. The Colorado Association for Manufacturing and Technology will also have two members on the WASMA Leadership Team, one serving Weld County and the other Adams County. These leaders will leverage resources from their respective organizations to contribute to the creation and modification of education and training offerings and populate the content areas of the Alliance. Some of the funds from the implementation grant will be used to subsidize education and training for prospective and incumbent employees for the participating employers and WIA funds will also be used to outreach to displaced, low-income and non-traditional labor pools. ProfessionaUIndustry Organizations: A large part of the marketing aspect of the implementation grant for the WASMA will be a significant and strong partnership with the local/regional economic development organizations. Ensuring that the proper information is available to incumbent businesses and new business development coming to the area is critical in the overall goal of establishing the region as a sustainable manufacturing industry leader. The Colorado Association for Manufacturing and Technology (CAMT) will also serve in a leadership Page 6 capacity, working to engage firms in the region to develop and participate in pilot training initiatives as well as provide information and consulting resources. This collaborative effort will promote systemic change that cultivates sustainability and restructuring of internal and external practices to achieve changes beneficial to employers, incumbent workers and job-seekers, and the environment.

May 19,2010 Susan House K GOLDEN:'.. Upstate Colorado Economic Development u N 822 7th Street,Ste.550 Greeley,CO 80631 RE: Colorado Sectors Implementation Grant Letter of Commitment Golden Aluminum Inc. is a 150 employee manufacturing facility committed to sustainable manufacturing in Northern Colorado. We are a major recycler of aluminum, transforming scrap aluminum into new cast aluminum coils serving food and beverage canning industries across North America. We have been in operation since 1983. We are very excited about the opportunities this grant could provide to us in moving our facility growth initiatives forward through enhanced employee training. As we look at expanding our facility locally, we remain concerned that skills and demographics of current employees and in the community may not be well suited to our expansion plans. Two areas of concern deal with the need to implement a Total Preventative Maintenance Program and Supervisory Skills training for our facility Leads. Until we can enhance the skill sets of our incumbent workers in both of these areas, we will not be able to successfully move to the next step in potential expansion efforts and ultimately be able to transfer these skill sets to a new workforce. We understand this grant has a 10% non-governmental match requirement, and are fully accepting of this. I know there are other local industries which are also competing for these valued grant funds. I would assure you that if we are selected as a recipient of this grant,the funds will be put to the full use of which they are intended. Sincerely, ]err, .
