Platinum Bay Technologies

What Platinum Bay Technologies does

Platinum Bay Technologies, SPC is a private, Irvine, California-headquartered software and professional-services firm founded in 2015 by Steve Andrews (President & CEO). The company operates as a California Social Purpose Corporation with a dual mandate: deliver enterprise-grade custom business software and integration/automation services, and create careers for Autistic individuals, with no shareholders and projected 77.9% of gross revenue directed to Autistic employee compensation and a corporate foundation by year five. The firm is a registered SPC, COPPA-compliant, and structured as a remote-first organization serving clients primarily in the United States.

The company's core product is ESMServer, a next-generation integration and automation platform that combines a recurrence-based scheduling engine (RecurrenceScheduler), a Windows-based custom-code scheduling service (ESM ActionPoint), and data flow transformations built for extensibility. The technical stack is anchored in the Microsoft ecosystem — .NET, C#, ASP.NET MVC, Web API, Windows Azure, SQL Server, and MongoDB — and the team comprises former Microsoft employees and current/former Microsoft MVPs. The RecurrenceScheduler's layered handling of holidays, weekend rules, daylight saving, and time zones is the platform's distinguishing feature.

Platinum Bay monetizes through a mix of professional services and software. Service revenue streams include custom business software development, application modernization (technology upgrades, language conversion, large-scale refactoring), systems and data integration, and a retainer-based Concierge CTO offering. Risk assessments on new and existing software projects start at $2,500 and are sold on multi-year contracts as a demand-generation wedge. The firm sells ESMTools products (ESM ActionPoint, RecurrenceScheduler) on a subscription/recurring basis via esmserver.com. Distribution is direct enterprise field sales augmented by website contact forms and free on-site assessments; marketing relies on case-study content and a unique social-enterprise brand positioning rather than paid acquisition.
