Two-Factor Analysis	Current government regulations require that, in performing availability analyses, an organization must consider at least eight designated factors. Referred to as the "Two-Factor Analysis," they include the following for minorities: The availability of minorities/women having requisite skills in an area in which the contractor can reasonably recruit. The availability of promotable and transferable, and trainable minority/female employees within the contractor’s organization. Availability is determined for each job group by weighting each of the above factors in accordance with each factor?s significance to that job group.
