What IDR does

IDR (Internal Data Resources, Inc.) is a US IT staffing and workforce solutions firm founded in 1998 and headquartered in Alpharetta, Georgia. The company provides technology professionals to enterprise and government clients on a contract, contract-to-hire, direct hire, or statement-of-work basis, with a deployed base of more than 900 W-2 consultants supporting projects across 40+ states. Its go-to-market is a direct sales model with account managers and inside-sales teams covering healthcare, financial services, government, and SaaS/enterprise technology buyers, complemented by content marketing and a candidate-facing job board.

The service platform is built around a proprietary AI matching engine that scores candidates on experience, skills, project history, availability, and historical success patterns. In September 2024 IDR introduced Recruiter Jamie, a text-based conversational AI virtual recruiter that handles first-pass candidate screening, profile building, and outreach before handing off to human recruiters. The company packages its delivery with agile workforce management and an employee-owned (ESOP) operating model that ties recruiter and account-manager incentives to placement outcomes.

IDR generates revenue as a professional services staffing firm paid by client employers, while services remain free to candidates. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and varies by role, skill set, location, experience, and engagement type. Customers include Hilton, American Airlines, Tractor Supply, DaVita, LifePoint Health, Mitsubishi Electric Trane US, Vizio, and the Georgia Department of Transportation, with a wholly-owned subsidiary, Gravity Workforce Solutions, LLC, extending the operating footprint.
