What Integrity Trade Services does

Integrity Trade Services (ITS) is a privately held, Illinois-incorporated LLC founded in 2008 that provides staffing, workforce management, and disaster relief services to U.S. employers, primarily across the Midwest and South. Headquartered in Frankfort, Illinois, the company operates 18+ physical offices across eight states (Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Texas, and Wisconsin) and has worked with job seekers and businesses in 14+ states. ITS places contract, contract-to-hire, and direct-hire workers across general labor, industrial, manufacturing, construction, office, and technical roles, and acts as Employer of Record for payroll processing, tax withholding, benefits administration, and compliance for the workers it places.

ITS offers a layered product surface anchored on four core lines: Staffing Services (temporary and permanent placement), Managed Service Provider (MSP) solutions (centralized contingent workforce management, vendor management, compliance, and cost control), Payroll Services (Employer of Record), and Disaster Relief Services (emergency staffing, equipment, and infrastructure during crises). The technology stack consists of Vendor Management Systems (VMS) for workforce tracking and analytics, plus automation for time tracking, reporting, and invoicing, and includes a proprietary Recruiting, Screening, and Interviewing (RSI) process for candidate vetting. Third-party platforms (Ableteams for candidate/employee portal, GreenEmployee for pay stubs) support job-seeker and payroll workflows. The go-to-market is sales-led and field-based, driven by local office teams engaging directly with employer HR departments and hiring managers; job-seeker services are provided free of charge, while employer pricing is quote-based and typically structured as multi-year contracts. Federal disaster relief engagements with FEMA, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, TSA, and DHS are a distinctive vertical alongside commercial/industrial clients in manufacturing and other trades-heavy industries.

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• ManpowerGroup: Global staffing leader providing contingent staffing, MSP/RPO, and workforce solutions across industrial, office, and technical verticals — overlaps with ITS across most service lines at much greater scale.
• Adecco: Global staffing and workforce solutions provider serving industrial, office, and skilled-trade segments — a large incumbent whose industrial staffing business directly competes with ITS.
• Randstad: Global HR services firm with staffing, MSP, and payroll/RPO offerings — competing with ITS for enterprise contingent workforce management contracts.
• Kelly Services: Publicly traded staffing and workforce solutions provider with industrial, office, and professional placement lines — competing for similar light-industrial and commercial placements.

Direct peers

• PeopleReady (TrueBlue): Trades and industrial staffing arm of TrueBlue Inc., providing general labor, skilled trades, and on-demand industrial staffing through a national branch network — directly comparable to ITS's staffing model.
• Express Employment Professionals: Privately held staffing franchisor placing administrative, commercial, and industrial workers across the U.S. — similar regional-franchise model and breadth of staffing verticals as ITS.
• Staffmark Group: PE-backed staffing firm placing industrial, administrative, and skilled-trade workers through a U.S. branch network — comparable size and service mix to ITS.
• Aerotek: Operating company of Allegis Group placing industrial, manufacturing, construction, and light industrial workers — the closest large-scale direct competitor to ITS across its core verticals.
• Tradesmen International: PE-backed construction trades staffing firm providing skilled craftworkers (electricians, plumbers, HVAC, carpenters) to contractors — directly overlapping ITS's skilled-trades and construction placement offering.

Others

• Cornerstone Building Brands staffing partners (e.g., local EOR/payroll providers): Payroll and EOR platforms such as Gusto, Justworks, and Deel compete in the employer-of-record and payroll services segment that ITS bundles with staffing — an adjacent rather than direct competitor but a meaningful substitute for ITS's payroll line.
