ORGANIZATIONAL CAPACITY AND STRUCTURE a. The organization’s capacity and commitment to carrying out the proposed program design
and the ability to meet all requirements of the contract.
Since 1981, KRA Corporation has supported the mission of state and local workforce agencies through its vision – to engage businesses, develop workers, and nurture stronger communities. Today, KRA is recognized as a national leader in workforce development for its program innovations, exceptional customer service, and trusted operational results. KRA’s guiding principles of Knowledge, Responsibility, and Achievement support its’ mission – to provide businesses with a trained and reliable workforce by preparing jobseekers for today’s competitive workplace environment, and tomorrow’s global economy. KRA is proposing to fulfill the role of both the One-Stop Operator and the Adult and Dislocated Worker Program Operator for both the Santa Maria and Santa Barbara locations. KRA has developed a results-oriented, demand-driven model that is focused on the following key initiatives: Exceptional Service – KRA uses a Quality Service Model throughout the
organization to ensure an exceptional customer experience. This service model is customer-centered and includes both internal and external customers. From the onset, new employees are made aware through onboarding and training that a great emphasis is placed on high quality execution of KRA’s quality standards.
KRA’s culture is an exceptional
customer experience and staff
strive for 100% customer
satisfaction. Customers are
provided with KRA’s service
standards as part of the
orientation to the center.
Additionally, the company’s five
pillars of quality service and
quality service standards are displayed at each location so every customer
knows what to expect. KRA uses several methods to ensure that standards are
consistently met such as customer surveys, mystery shoppers, and focus groups.
These methods allow the corporate Quality Assurance team to collect data and
determine if standards are being met. Employees who receive acknowledgement
for outstanding customer service are recognized by leadership. Those who
receive negative feedback are counseled and provided additional customer
service training.
Integrated Service Delivery (ISD) – Using an ISD model for One-Stop operations
streamlines and links workforce system partners for the benefit of jobseeker and
![Page 5: For ONE STOP OPERATOR AND ADULT AND ......2016/05/26 · Customer Flow Chart - Jobseeker Customer Flow Chart - Employer Subcontractor Letter(s), if applicable Request for Proposal](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071114/5feb7732055cdd51f37f3b99/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

4
business customers. KRA achieves performance excellence by gathering
partners together to:
• Economize scarce resources
• Enhance job seeker outcomes
• Promote more effective services to employers
• Enhance data availability
KRA uses the ISD model to build strong partnerships through the creation of a shared vision, shared responsibilities and shared outcomes that benefit all system partners and customers. Each partner is equally valued in the decision-making process of service delivery.
Robust Business Engagement - With the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act’s (WIOA) focus on job-driven training, and based on area labor-market information, KRA engages local area employers and industry representatives to support our jobseekers’ pursuit of career pathways that are linked to in-demand business sectors. Using a consultative approach, KRA captures the business’s needs and develops a customized plan to provide a full scope of services that promote profitability, productivity and peace of mind for our business customers.
Hiring and Developing High Quality Staff – KRA understands the need for a workforce that performs smarter, faster and is more productive, while continually improving internal systems, all by employing cutting edge technology. KRA uses technology to train and equip staff and One Stop partners in an ongoing learning process with the knowledge, skills, and motivation to provide superior service to job seekers, including those with disabilities, and businesses in an integrated, regionally focused framework of service delivery. KRA uses the competencies established by the National Association of Workforce Development Professionals to ensure that staff are skilled in advising job seekers of their options, knowledgeable about local labor market dynamics, aware of available services inside and outside the Workforce Resource Centers, and skilled in developing customers’ skills for employment success.
KRA is committed to performance excellence throughout every aspect of its operations, subscribing to The Baldrige Framework: Driving Organizational Excellence is the company’s primary Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) criteria and performance enhancement. KRA infuses CQI principles into everything it undertakes, using data to monitor outcomes in real time, and making adjustments that result in higher customer satisfaction rates, improved performance, and successful collaborations.
Management and Reporting KRA continuously monitors every aspect of our programs to ensure that it achieves strong performance outcomes in accordance with contractual requirements and that it remains in compliance with program rules and regulations. Corporate leadership and program managers conduct regular internal reviews on data integrity, program operations, and customer service. An external audit is conducted by the Corporate
![Page 6: For ONE STOP OPERATOR AND ADULT AND ......2016/05/26 · Customer Flow Chart - Jobseeker Customer Flow Chart - Employer Subcontractor Letter(s), if applicable Request for Proposal](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071114/5feb7732055cdd51f37f3b99/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

Quality Assurance Manager to validate the results and provide technical assistance as necessary. Monthly reporting ensures the program remains on track. A local Quality Assurance Specialist will be responsible for monitoring, tracking, and reporting performance to the Corporate Quality Assurance Manager on, no less than, a monthly basis. Performance is reviewed during monthly Operations Meetings with the Program Manager and various headquarters staff including the Chief Operating Officer. KRA’s decades of experience operating multiple contracts in several states nationwide, allow it to draw from an expansive pool of best practices and lessons learned in regards to timely management and data integrity. KRA will meet regularly (no less than quarterly) with Workforce Development Board staff to discuss: enrollments, job orders, training, outcomes, program design, program expenditures, staffing, and other elements that have the potential to impact the quality of the programs and services provided to the county. KRA uses GSTARS™ database as its data and reporting system. GSTARS™ is a 100% web-based subscription system that provides a standardized platform for collaborative program management and reporting across Employment and Training programs such as WIOA and TANF. This system provides an efficient and cost effective means for program management, standardized documentation, and reporting. GSTARS™, as an integrated system, also supports self-service client tracking, case management, business services management, and fiscal management for ITA funds tracking and reporting for managing employment and training programs. This system can be leveraged to deliver regular progress reports for any project. This system is also used for the continuous improvement and evaluation of all of KRA’s programs. KRA will also utilize any WDB-prescribed reporting tools and will ensure timely data entry in the appropriate database(s). KRA’s Corporate Quality Assurance team also uses a risk assessment matrix to determine overall Operational Risk Management (ORM) in a given circumstance. The matrix consists of two categories; the “Probability” of the risk event occurring, and the “Severity” of the risk event, should it occur. This is a simple mechanism to increase visibility of risks and assist management decision making.
KRA has a low threshold for taking action. Even if the risk event’s severity is negligible but is probably going to occur or happens frequently, we require that action is taken to mitigate the risk. Likewise, if a risk event is improbable but the results of the occurrence would be catastrophic, action is again required.

Tier 2. Requires some job readiness, few barriers to employment. These customers have moderate barriers to employment and may require skill development and training to increase their competiveness in the labor market. Additionally, they will be provided with access to a number of on-line self-assessment products that will assist them in planning long-term employment strategies. These customers will be considered for on-the-job training, transitional jobs, and other skill training activities.
Tier 3. Requires job readiness, significant barriers to employment. These customers require job training and/or have significant barriers to employment. They may lack skills, have limited or no work history, substance abuse issues, mental health concerns, or other substantial obstacles to overcome before they can begin their job search.

Comprehensive Career Services Customers will engage in career exploration activities to identify and pursue career pathways. These activities include: career counseling, independent job search assistance, provision of workforce and labor market information. KRA uses various tools to assist job seekers with making informed career decisions including many on-line resources that they can access from home such as resume builder and indeed.com, the world’s leading job search aggregator. Evidence from several evaluations suggests that having labor market information improves workers’ ability to make informed decisions about training and employment and a key component of KRA’s career services delivery. Customers will be provided various options to explore in-depth information on hundreds of occupations, including multimedia interviews, workplace photos, sample career paths, and more. Priority will be given be given to low-income adults and public assistance recipients and individuals who are basic skills deficient per the Board’s Priority of Service policy. Employment Preparation Services
Because soft skills or non-technical skills required in the workforce are often the largest barrier to gaining and maintaining employment, KRA provides workshops that focus on interview skills, resume writing, job search strategies, appropriate dress, behavior, workplace etiquette and culture, computer literacy while developing a peer-to-peer support networking. Networking groups and job clubs will be formed to support the acquisition of soft skills on how to search for a job, create a good resume, and understand job requirements and speed up job placement.
Through KRA’s effective and robust Business Engagement model, Career Agents will utilize existing employer partnerships to facilitate internships and work experiences that are linked to careers and build new opportunities for employment offerings including subsidized wage opportunities for participants demonstrating work readiness aptitude. Providing paid work experience opportunities is an integral component of KRA’s program design. Utilizing On-the-Job Training, paid apprenticeships and paid internships along with other basic types of paid work experience allows participants an opportunity to rapidly re-enter the workforce, apply the knowledge and skills learned through workshops and training programs and gives employers an opportunity to inform center staff on additional skills or behaviors required to maintain those jobs long term. KRA Business Services Consultants will continuously seek out new employer partners and opportunities to provide employment opportunities for jobseekers.
Training Services
KRA understands that work-based training services, including on-the-job training, incumbent worker training, skill upgrades and retraining, entrepreneurial training, internships, customized trainings, and work experiences, are an important component of WIOA services.
Our Business Services Consultants will negotiate the training curriculum, reimbursable costs, length of training, and any specific terms to be added to the standard employer-

based training agreement. They will ensure that the work-based training appropriately prepares the job seeker to function in the identified occupation.
Additionally, KRA Career Agents will work in partnership with customers to navigate the training opportunities available through the local community colleges and other eligible training providers to obtain industry recognized-credentials and/or degrees that will firmly place them on a career pathway in the WDB’s designated industry sectors. KRA will ensure that training meets the mandated spending requirement set forth in California Senate Bill 734 and EDD Directive WSD14-1.
Direct Placement into Unsubsidized Employment
KRA will utilize its employer partnerships and connections with other partners to identify current job openings and positions that will be open in the future. Career Agents subsidized placements as a tool for long term placement with an employer. Career Agents and the Business Services Consultants will work together to identify appropriate job opportunities for customers and to provide referrals to open job orders. This will be done through presenting at Chamber of Commerce meetings, Industry Associations in addition to hosting job fairs and Employer Roundtables. When a customer has interviews or gains employment, Career Agents will work with the customer to identify any additional resources needed to be successful (e.g. interview and work clothing, tools, I-9 documentation, transcripts, etc.)
Coordinated Service Delivery
KRA’s integrated service delivery model allows the organization to maximize the support it can provide its customers while increasing its capacity to serve as many jobseekers as possible. KRA works diligently to partner with WIOA mandated and non-mandated partners in the workforce development system to streamline service delivery for customers and to bring together all of the various funding resources that might be available to pay for employment, training and supportive services for a particular customer.
All Workforce Resource Center partners will meet on a quarterly basis in order to allow for the joint planning of resources, particularly, how multiple agencies can help ensure a seamless experience for the customer and how to efficiently use resources to ensure customers receive appropriate services and benefits across multiple systems. Through these convenings the partners will develop a joint referral and follow-up process. They will also help to address systemic barriers to joint service provision. f. The extent to which the proposal meets the tenets of the Workforce Innovation and
Opportunity Act.
WIOA opens the door for state and local boards to use proven data-driven service delivery models and includes higher levels of accountability and outcome data reporting.

Integrated Service Delivery (ISD) KRA envisions a seamless One-Stop system between partners through the use of a streamlined intake, eligibility, and assessment process that avoids duplication for the customer. This includes identifying points of duplication in program eligibility rules and use of KRA’s efficient, technologically advanced systems. KRA achieves greater outcomes by gathering partners together enabling greater leverage to better serve job seekers and employers. KRA has the expertise to build strong partnerships through the creation of a shared vision, shared responsibilities and shared outcomes that benefit all system partners and customers. Each partner is equally valued in the decision-making process of service delivery. And KRA’s partnerships go beyond those mandated and non-mandated partners located in the centers. KRA’s proposed ISD model includes common intake and initial assessment processes for one-stop services. The model also includes functional team alignment. Functional teams allow staff to focus on services rather than individual programs. KRA’s team structure is comprised of four distinct teams.
Site Ambassador Team - Greets customers and provide orientation for new customers and ensure access to appropriate programs, services and navigation to supplementary supports.
Career Services Team - Team members provide a comprehensive portfolio of career services such as career planning, job search, job development and placement assistance.
Training Team - Assists customers in building their skills through short-term vocational services, pre-apprenticeship training, industry-recognized credential training, and other allowable training opportunities.
Business Services Team - Provides customers with information on the labor market and helps them interact with employers.
An integrated team approach improves customer access and system efficiency by seamlessly providing multiple services to customers across programs. Integrated teams also promote communication and information-sharing among workforce programs and staff. Delivering integrated services requires a well-planned program design, hiring and training staff with strong skills and backgrounds, and the thoughtful use of technology and data collection. KRA’s extensive experience with the ISD model is unmatched by its competitors. Career Pathways KRA offers a continuum of services from the workforce system to help grow jobseekers’ educational and occupational skill sets through a career pathways model. KRA focuses on “stackable credentials,” an approach that encourages workers with a roadmap of incremental, progressive certificates that will lead to more lucrative jobs along each

career pathway with a focus on developing skill sets that place jobseekers into sustainable wage occupations in one of the region's nine high-growth industries. By using the research conducted by the WDB in 2015 and KRA’s own Labor Market research, customers will be offered a framework to understand employment opportunities in the County and staff will be knowledgeable and able to connect jobseekers to employment within the WDB’s designated industry sectors. KRA will also work with the WDB to support sector strategies and career pathways that advance opportunities for all workers and jobseekers, including low-skilled adults, veterans, and individuals with disabilities. Continuous Improvement As a Continuous Quality Improvement organization, all one-stop processes go through a “Plan, Do, Check, Act” Cycle to identify bottlenecks and redundancies. Deploying CQI in the orientation, eligibility, and assessment processes allows KRA to develop strategies to streamline services and avoid unnecessary delays and burdens for the customer. Using these phases, KRA continuously monitors every aspect of its programs to ensure that programs achieve strong performance outcomes in accordance with contractual expectations and to validate compliance with program rules and regulations. KRAs organizational and program leadership will conduct regular internal reviews on data integrity, program operations, and customer service. An external audit will be conducted by the Corporate Quality Assurance Manager to validate the results and provide technical assistance as necessary. Monthly reporting will ensure the program remains on track One of the key components in continuous improvement is listening to the “voice of the customer.” KRA regularly tracks and analyzes customer satisfaction and dissatisfaction. Customer satisfaction is measured through customer feedback. These results provide vital information for understanding customers and the needs of the region. KRA listens to its job seeker and employer customers using multiple modes such as, interviews with lost and potential customers, customer comments posted on social media, and customer satisfaction surveys or feedback information. A sample of KRA’s Customer Satisfaction Measures are:
1. I was greeted promptly when I entered the center 2. The staff were polite and treated me with respect 3. The center was clean and welcoming 4. I waited less than 10 minutes for help 5. Staff took the time to listen and understand my needs. 6. My career agent was professional and helped me with my needs 7. I received the services I needed
Customer satisfaction surveys are scaled 1-5 with 5 being the highest satisfaction and are measured at different points throughout the customer life cycle. KRA conducts customer service survey’s both internally, to employees, and externally to job seeker

customers, employer customers, and clients/funders to ensure that the company is always exceeding expectations. g. The quality of strategies and approaches to ensure business and jobseeker customer
receive effective services that are consistent with policies and produce quality outcomes while minimizing cost.
With a focus on innovation and excellence our proven data-driven service delivery strategies frame all of the work KRA undertakes. These strategies and approaches include: Customer-Centered Design KRA’s program design model is a customer-centered, integrated service delivery system that provides job seekers and business customers with an efficient and seamless process for locating and accessing the full range of workforce and business services at the Workforce Resource Centers. This model is identified by three key principles:
Functional team alignment that focuses staff members on services. An integrated team approach (also discussed in f. above) improves customer access and system efficiency by seamlessly providing multiple services to customers across programs. Integrated teams also promote communication and information-sharing among workforce programs and staff.
Cross-trained staff members that are capable of assisting customers with variety of tasks. Another important part of integrating workforce programs located at the center is cross-training staff members to perform a variety of tasks related to intake and enrollment regardless of program, funding source, or functional team. Partner staff located at the Workforce Resource Centers will be cross-trained on each other’s programs to ensure customer questions can be answered about the services available and to provide comprehensive guidance, assistance, and referrals. Using this approach, Workforce Resource Center staff will also exhibit the workforce development board’s emphasis on customer-centered services.
Customer Satisfaction. KRA prides itself in exceptional internal and external customer service delivery and specializes in preparing job seekers to exceed the expectations of employers. KRA’s promise to exceed to the expectations of its customers, both internal and external, is communicated through its measurable standards of service. These standards of service empower staff to deliver customer experiences that are at the highest level of quality. KRA uses multiple channels of communication (e.g., in-person, call-line, and web interface) to listen to customers..
Strengths-Based Career Coaching KRA uses strengths-based principles throughout its program design, including customer assessments. Strengths-Based Career Coaching is a holistic focus on the customer that

includes an emphasis on a person’s strengths and resources. Both the career agent and customer are active partners in developing a plan for the individual’s success. KRA staff are trained to work in partnership with customers from the time they walk into the Workforce Resource Center until they are on their career path. KRA has incorporated the following strengths based-principles into the training of its Career Agents:
Readiness to Serve All Customers - Welcome all customers who come through the door and a continued readiness to serve customers from a diverse array of backgrounds.
Coaching for Success - Assist customers with uncovering their own talents and strengths to achieve sustainable results.
Career Pathways - Build career pathways in partnership with the customer that lead to sustainable employment with career advancement opportunities and a sustainable wage.
Advancing Technology In order to advance technology, increase efficiencies, and reach customers “where they are”, KRA chartered an Advancing Technology Team comprised of program operations and administrative staff. The team focuses on advancements that have a direct impact on program operations, with a priority on customer satisfaction surveying. In order to ensure continuous improvement in the deployment of new technologies the team is tasked with: a. Identifying opportunities for introduction of new technology (hardware and/or
software) to advance KRA’s guiding principles and mission to “prepare jobseekers for today’s global economy and supply employers with a trained and reliable workforce.” (e.g., customer self-service, service delivery enhancements, company-wide performance tracking, customer satisfaction survey tools, etc.)
b. Identifying criteria to prioritize different technology advancements (e.g., cost/benefit, applicability across the company, ease of implementation, etc.), and prioritizing potential investments, accordingly.
c. Presenting information on the top priority technology advancement(s) for the Corporate Operations Committee’s consideration.
KRA’s innovative approach to the use of technology in service delivery goes well beyond general operations. For example, many of our career services can be accessed virtually, for example, in San Diego, we use an Innovative Communications Tool—podcasting—moderated by KRA’s Social Media Coordinator, with contributions from KRA/San Diego Career Agents, these highly informative podcasts include topics such as: The #1 Secret for Job Hunting Success; Lessons From an International Job Seeker; Career Fairs – Are They Worth It?; and Life After Job Loss.

customers are equipped with Cell phones and iPads so business needs and delivered services can be input into required systems, tools, and databases in real time. If you are bidding on both One Stop locations, please answer the following question: What, if any, efficiencies or savings will be realized if your organization is selected to manage both One Stops? By selecting KRA to manage both One Stop locations the County can achieve economies of scale through KRA’s consolidated Program Management functions and Administrative and Operational efficiencies as outlined below. Program Management KRA’s ISD model allows the organization to economize limited resources and maximize the support it can provide its customers, based on each customer’s particular and potentially unique needs, while increasing its capacity to serve as many jobseekers as possible. By operating both locations, KRA can achieve scale and impact of the ISD model and work most effectively with partners whose coverage also reaches across the region thereby reducing duplication of services and creating an integrated way to serve jobseekers and businesses. KRA works diligently with other organizations in the local workforce development system to streamline service delivery for customers and to bring together all of the various funding resources that might be available to pay for employment, training and supportive services for a particular customer. In addition, managing both Workforce Resource Centers would facilitate coordinated engagement with the region’s business community in order to meet the workforce needs of employers and job seekers. Administration and Operations KRA uses innovation, technology, and highly quality staff with the right skills to do more with less. The shared services from operating both locations creates streamlined administrative and operational systems that result in decreased labor and overhead costs and increased average case loads while maintaining quality and reliability.
Hard-dollar cost savings include:
Shared staff across both One-Stop locations resulting in labor cost savings
Volume discounts for supplies and equipment
System-wide reporting and analytics to increase effective use of staff and system performance
Ongoing staff development and trainings
Soft cost savings & efficiencies include:
Functional team alignment with mandated partners
Higher average caseload ratios Shortened timeframes for service
delivery Management-time savings Cost reductions related to consolidated
billing submitted to the County Reduced risk of disallowed costs and
program findings from system-wide consistency in data collection, tracking, and reporting

staff that will directly support the program, provide system development, and monitor contract execution.
B. Personnel Costs - Fringe Benefits
KRA's proposed budget includes fringe benefit costs, which include statutory payroll taxes, workers compensation, health and welfare benefits, company 401(k) contributions and additional benefits such as, but not limited to: education assistance, recognition, and awards. New KRA employees accrue 10 days paid time off (PTO) and 5 days of sick leave per year, receive 10 paid holidays, and are also eligible for bereavement and jury leave in accordance with company policy. Upon separation or termination KRA pays accrued PTO balances to the employee in accordance with company policy.
C. Other Operating
1. Audit - The budgeted amount of $1,014 is an allocated shared cost for conducting a company-wide A-133 audit
2. Insurance (Program Insurance) – The budgeted amount of $2,907 reflects an allocation for fidelity bond insurance premium based on the estimated caseload and staffing.
3. Staff Development (Training & Registration) - The budget includes $1,541 in funds to support registration for the several industry conferences, including the NAWDP Annual Conference, and participation by selected staff in Leadership Edge, KRA’s internal training academy. (The costs associated with travel to these conferences and training events are budgeted under Staff Travel).
4. Staff Travel (Local and Out-of State) - The travel budget is proposed at $24,370. KRA recognizes that in order to operate a successful program we must maximize accessibility for customers to the program and be flexible to support service delivery at different locations. The budget includes funds to reimburse local travel expenses for KRA staff members to travel between project sites, and, as necessary, to meet with potential participants and customers at sites that are convenient to the customer, conduct worksite visits, and meet with businesses and other community stakeholders. KRA reimburses mileage at the new GSA rate of $0.54 per mile.
KRA also anticipates travel to attend conferences related WIOA operations and performance which optimize the efficiency of operations. Maintaining staff that are engaged and well informed will be critical with the recently enacted WIOA regulations. Please see the attached schedule for additional details.
5. Supplies - The proposed budget includes an allocation of approximately $14,671 for consumable supplies.
6. Telephone/Communication –

Total
$339,314

KRA CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2015 and 2014

Note 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Operations
KRA Corporation (the Corporation) was organized under the laws of the State of
Maryland on February 17, 1981. The Corporation’s primary business activities are
workforce development, information operations, and management consulting to
government agencies.
The accounting and reporting policies of the Corporation conform to accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America and reflect practices
appropriate to the federal government contracting industry. These policies are
summarized below.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Corporation considers all amounts
held in checking and money market accounts to be cash and cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable
The Corporation provides credit in the normal course of business to its customers and
performs ongoing credit evaluations of those customers. Receivables are generally
due thirty (30) days after billed. The Corporation considers allowances for doubtful
accounts based on factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical
trends, projection of trends, and other information. Management of the Corporation
periodically reviews the collectability of accounts receivable, and those accounts
which are considered not collectable are written off as bad debts.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2015 and 2014

Note 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Investments
Investments, consisting of equities, mutual funds, and bonds, are classified as trading
and are reported at fair value. The fair value of marketable securities is based on
quoted market prices. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments are
reported in the statements of income. Management evaluates the classification of its
investments at purchase and at each subsequent balance sheet date.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment over $1,000 are recorded at the original cost and are being
depreciated on a straight-line basis over estimated lives of two to seven years.
Leasehold improvements are amortized over the life of the assets or the remaining
period of the lease, whichever is shorter.
Depreciation and amortization expense for the years ended September 30, 2015 and
2014 was $16,367 and $7,288, respectively.
Deferred Rent
The Corporation recognizes the minimum non-contingent rents required under
operating leases as rent expense on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease, with
differences between amounts recognized as expense and the amounts actually paid
recorded as deferred rent and included in accrued expenses on the accompanying
balance sheets.
Revenue
Revenue from cost-type contracts is recognized as costs are incurred on the basis of
direct costs plus allowable indirect costs and an allocable portion of the fixed fee.
Revenue from fixed-price type contracts is recognized under the percentage-of-
completion method of accounting, with costs and estimated profits included in
contract revenue as work is performed. If actual and estimated costs to complete a
contract indicate a loss, provision is made currently for the loss anticipated on the
contract. Revenue from time and materials contracts is recognized as costs are
incurred at amounts represented by the agreed-upon billing amounts.
Revenue recognized on contracts for which billings have not been presented to
customers at year end is included in the accounts receivable – contracts classification
on the accompanying balance sheets.

Note 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Subsequent Events
In preparing its financial statements, the Corporation has evaluated subsequent events
through February 24, 2016 which is the date the financial statements were available
to be issued.
Note 2. Concentration of Credit Risk
The Corporation maintains its cash accounts at institutions with balances that may exceed
$ 250,000, which is the amount insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
The Corporation has not experienced any losses in such accounts and monitors the
creditworthiness of the financial institutions with which it conducts business.
Management believes that the Corporation is not exposed to any significant credit risk
with respect to its cash balances.
Note 3. Accounts Receivable - Contracts
Accounts receivable consist of billed and billable amounts recoverable under contracts in
progress with government agencies. At September 30, 2015 and 2014, the components of
accounts receivable were:
2015 2014
Billed receivables
Unbilled receivables
Less: Allowance for doubtful accounts
Note 4. Fair Value Measurements
The framework for measuring fair value provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the
inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest
priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
(level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3). The three levels of the
fair value hierarchy are described as follows:

![Page 85: For ONE STOP OPERATOR AND ADULT AND ......2016/05/26 · Customer Flow Chart - Jobseeker Customer Flow Chart - Employer Subcontractor Letter(s), if applicable Request for Proposal](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071114/5feb7732055cdd51f37f3b99/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)
KRA CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 4. Fair Value Measurements (continued)
Level 1
Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets
or liabilities in active markets that the Corporation has the ability to access.
Level 2
Inputs to the valuation methodology include:
quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;
inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability;
inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data
by correlation or other means.
If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the level 2 input must be
observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3
Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value
measurement.
The asset or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based
on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation
techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of
unobservable inputs.
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at September 30, 2015 and 2014.
Common Stock and Municipal Bonds: Valued at the closing price reported on the active
market on which the individual securities are traded
Mutual and Exchange Traded Funds: Valued at the net asset value (NAV) of shares held by the Corporation at year end.

Note 4. Fair Value Measurements (continued)
The preceding methods described may produce a fair value calculation that may not be
indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, although
the Corporation believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other
market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair
value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at
the reporting date.
The following tables set forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the Corporation’s
investments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2015 and

Note 14. Income Taxes
The Corporation files its income tax returns on the cash basis, whereby revenue is
recognized when received and expenses are recognized when paid. The Corporation
elected to be taxed under the provisions of Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code.
Under those provisions, the Corporation does not pay federal or state corporate income
taxes on its taxable income. Instead, the stockholder is liable for individual income taxes
on the Corporation’s taxable income.
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require the
Corporation to evaluate tax positions taken and recognize a tax liability if it is more likely
than not that uncertain tax positions taken would not be sustained upon examination by
taxing authorities. The Corporation has analyzed tax positions taken and has concluded
that, as of September 30, 2015 and 2014, there are no uncertain tax positions taken or
expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability or disclosure in the
financial statements.
The Corporation had no interest and penalties related to income taxes for the years ended
September 30, 2015 and 2014. The Corporation is subject to routine audits by taxing
jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.
Generally, the Corporation’s tax returns remain open for three years for federal and state
examination.
