Forward Together: Ponca City Development Authority

2022 IS ENDING...... on a positive note. According to the Manufacturing.net newsletter, a railroad strike has been averted, customers are getting behind the "Made in America" resurgence and the supply chains are continuing to unclog and streamline. Speaking of economy, did you see that big rig moving down Waverly this week? Keep reading. Staff has pictures.


PCDA Trustees met for the final meeting of 2022. There was discussion of municipal insurance payments (necessary), building projects (hoorah) and a new agreement with an existing company for expansion (double yay!). Workforce availability percentages continue to stay in the single numbers going into 2023, but this new-to-the-workforce (whether high school or college grads) seems to be ready to work. Are you seeking new employees for 2023? Keep reading for upcoming hiring and internship opportunities. on a positive note.

 

HIRE LOCAL.....Marching alongside the Ponca Works internship program are the career fairs at OSU in the Spring and Fall. PCDA will be participating at the March 2023 OSU Spring Career Fair as well as the mock interviews which happen each year with soon-to-graduate college students. Have some job openings which might fit a new graduate? Give Kat a call to get signed up to participate. 580.765.7070

MOVING DOWN THE ROAD..... this week was a large tank from built at MJ&H Fabrications and delivered to P66, our favorite refinery. You just thought previous tanks were tall. If you have never seen a huge tank move down the road, the mechanics are astounding. And also part of a five year project which concluded with the rest of the overhead lines being moved below the street to get this big boy to the refinery. Thanks to the City of Ponca City for these types of projects.

K&C MANUFACTURING....was recently invited to attend Kim Ray’s supplier symposium. This was a special presentation and dinner event for suppliers who have a 93% or higher on-time delivery rate. Kim Ray is a new customer for K & C. They connected at the Dallas Design2Part Show.

Forward Together: Ponca City Development Authority

YEAR END, YEAR AHEAD...... As 2022 comes to a close, with all of the celebration of Christmas and the New Year frivolity, PCDA is getting ready to hit January 2023 running. Because Christmas is tomorrow (or really close to it) and staff works when industry needs us. This month, small business start-ups are calling to find assistance and support. Staff does that! Give us a call to start planning (or continue plotting) as the case may be, your next business. Industry is moving and grooving with supply chains getting back to some type of normal. However, if one or more economists and/or financial guru types could get in the same boat on world economy "next steps", that would be really swell.


Until that happens, PCDA will continue industry and manufacturing assistance with business retention and expansion programs, small business and information assistance and our award-winning workforce program, Ponca Works. City Central still has a few office spaces open, and there is a new immersive art exhibit happening soon in the John McNeese Gallery located on the first floor. Want to check out what staff has been up to the last five years? Keep scrolling to view the chart below (Merry Christmas) or the PCDA impact report on the website. Staff could not do this work without the support and direction of our fabulous Trustees as well as our amazing industry partners and local businesses.

STILL TIME.....to get the family to Ice on the Plaza. The penguins (yes, real ones) got rained out, so you still have an opportunity to see them soon. And the reindeer are still on the schedule this month! Make sure to follow the Ice on the Plaza Facebook page Ice on the Plaza for hours of operations and additional fun like the penguins sponsored by MakeKings, Santa Clause and the Reindeer Club visit. See you on the ice!

SHOP LOCAL..... and staff always does; because local businesses are owned, managed and run by our neighbors and friends. Downtown is full of unique shops and services (check out VAB's locally manufactured beer available for purchase) as well as veteran businesses on 14th like Brace Books. And don't forget your Santa Bucks for the big drawing happening on Tuesday, December 20th. Shop Local; Shop Ponca First.
