Eco-Staff

What Eco-Staff does

Eco-Staff is a Texas-based, privately held staffing company that has operated for over 20 years, serving commercial and industrial clients across Dallas, Houston, Austin, and San Antonio. The firm provides dual offerings: (1) staffing services placing skilled craftsmen (electricians, welders, pipefitters, millwrights, riggers, machine operators, journeymen), low voltage technicians, oil & gas workers, IT professionals, and administrative/clerical staff through both direct hire and contract arrangements; and (2) Microsoft Dynamics 365 consulting services spanning implementation, integration, migration, and ongoing support across modules including Finance & Operations, Business Central, NAV, Sales CRM, and Supply Chain Management, with industry-specific solutions for retail, distribution, manufacturing, healthcare, and food & beverage. A specialized sub-brand, Eco-Staff Oil & Gas, operates a dedicated domain for drilling, production, maintenance, and support roles.

The company operates without proprietary technology infrastructure: it relies on MyAvionte for applicant tracking and career portal management, and leverages Microsoft ecosystem integrations (Azure, Power BI, Teams, SharePoint, Outlook) for its Dynamics 365 consulting practice. AI capabilities are entirely derivative of Microsoft's embedded Dynamics 365 features (predictive analytics, demand forecasting, recommendation engines, IoT-enabled predictive maintenance) rather than any in-house model development. Partnerships with industry associations (IEC, ABC, AGC, HASC), DISA for drug testing, VetHUB for veteran workforce sourcing, and SAM certification support federal contractor work.

The business model is professional services-based with quote-based pricing on contract staffing bill rates and direct hire placement fees, plus consulting engagement fees on Dynamics 365 implementations. GTM is consultative field sales through four physical offices targeting enterprise and mid-market clients, supplemented by digital lead capture via the company website and organic social presence on LinkedIn, Facebook, X, and Instagram. Ownership is concentrated with Founder & Owner Harry Black; the firm employs 11-50 people, has no disclosed institutional investors, no funding history, and no M&A activity on record.
