What Tiny Planet Inc. does

Tiny Planet Inc. (legal name: Tinyplanet Inc., dba ITinyplanet, TPI) is a privately held staffing and application development company founded in 1999 and headquartered in La Palma, California. The company provides customized workforce management solutions including contract staffing, direct hire placement, strategic resource management, payroll services, and government solutions, alongside product and application services such as custom application development, project management, and quality assurance delivered via onsite, onshore, and offshore models. Supporting offerings include IT consulting, web portal design and implementation, IT training programs (SAP, .NET, Salesforce, SQL DBA, Healthcare BA, QlikView), and global outsourcing solutions.

The company serves small to large commercial businesses alongside federal, state, and local government agencies, with verticals spanning IT, healthcare, and non-IT/clerical/accounting placements. It operates three offices in La Palma (CA), Irving (TX), and Hyderabad (India), and maintains certified partnerships with IBM, Oracle, and Microsoft that provide credentialed access to enterprise technology stacks. The company is a certified Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) and Woman Business Enterprise (WBE), and a member of the American Staffing Association since 2007.

Revenue is generated through professional services and managed services arrangements, primarily via quote-based, multi-year contract staffing placements and project-based application development engagements. Go-to-market is sales-led, relying on the company website (itinyplanet.com) with separate client/recruiter and candidate/jobseeker portals, supplemented by referral flow from IBM/Oracle/Microsoft partner networks. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and contract structures are bespoke, which is typical for a small firm operating in both commercial and government procurement channels.
