The purpose of this paper is to clarify why the contractor of the Kaga WCP was able to launch the project and put it on track in a short period of time. We analyzed the extent to which the cooperation between municipalities and private companies has progressed in Osaka Prefecture using a quantitative survey. In addition, we examined how the contracted service provider gained experience in job support in Toyonaka City, and how it was applied to Kaga WCP. Based on these surveys, we found two main points. Firstly, the municipalities in Osaka Prefecture had limited cooperation with private companies that provided job support experiences and job opportunities. Secondly, the contractor succeeded in establishing cooperative relationships with about 10 companies within a few years, and it became clear that this was due to the fact that they were able to reconstruct their accumulated experience in the contracted job support program by adjusting it to the situation in Kaga City.
