In the mid 90’s, PeopleSolutions, Inc. was formed to assist The Richmond Group USA’s search clients with the expertise and human resources needed for specialty and time sensitive projects. Specifically, PeopleSolutions was created to provide the right people exactly at the time they are needed and for the duration of time they are needed. Manufacturers across the U.S. were just starting to impleme
nt “Just-In-Time” processes and the concept of “Just-In-Time” contract staffing seemed to make sense. Instead of hiring expensive outside consulting talent, why not bring in a person who has the background experience you want done while reducing associated expense by 50%? Why hire an employee to help complete a large project with the risk of having to lay them off after the project is completed? As the world of work became more competitive, the concept of the professional contract staffing solution really took off. PeopleSolutions experienced triple-digit growth. With our focus on quality of staff and service, many clients continued to employ the concept and our services. Ironically, due to the high quality of our contract staff, a high percentage of clients transitioned our contractors into full-time employees. During the Great Recession between 2007 and 2009, PeopleSolutions experienced even greater growth. With tight budgets for full-time employees, contractors made more and more sense. Today, with many years of experience within our specialty markets and disciplines, we are better able than ever to serve our clients contract staffing needs. Our clients continue to count on us to provide the right talent whenever it may be needed. We strive to ensure the success of our client’s and contractors. We look forward to continuing our position as an industry-leading contract staffing firm and are thankful for the opportunity to deliver our solutions to our current and future clients for years to come.
