What TSR Consulting Services does

TSR Consulting Services is a US-based IT and technical services staffing and consulting firm headquartered in Hauppauge, New York, with more than five decades of operating history (founded 1969/1974). The company operates three core service lines: Staffing (direct-to-client augmentation, MSP/VMS-aligned delivery, and permanent placement), Payrolling (Employer of Record for contingent and gig workers via a digital-first, AI-enabled platform), and Professional Services (managed services, milestone-based, and hybrid consulting engagements). Specialized consulting capabilities are layered on top across AI, Agile transformation (via the Digital Innovation Academy, a Scaled Agile Silver Transformation Partner), Project Management/PMO, Organizational Change Management, HRIS (via the Geneva practice, a designated ADP Business Partner), and ERP (SAP and Microsoft Dynamics 365). Two wholly-owned subsidiaries — Geneva (ADP consulting) and LOGIXtech (international ERP and IT transformation, based in Luxembourg) — extend the platform.

The company targets enterprise and mid-market clients across five named verticals: Energy & Utilities, Consumer Goods & Retail, Life Sciences & Biotechnology, Financial Services, and Information Technology. Named customers include Con Edison, PSE&G, an unnamed major utility serving 10+ million people, an unnamed global conveyor belt manufacturer, and leading financial services firms. Delivery is supported by a Global Capabilities Center in Hyderabad and a network across Canada, Puerto Rico, South America, and Europe enabling 24x7 follow-the-sun execution. Proprietary technology includes ATS automation tools, VMS/MSP integration infrastructure, and an AI-enabled digital payrolling platform.

TSR generates revenue primarily through mark-up on contractor bill rates (hourly postings observed at $72–$93/hr), placement fees on permanent hires, EOR/payrolling administrative fees, and time-and-materials, fixed-price, or outcome-based fees on consulting SOWs. Distribution is sales-led: direct enterprise field sales for Fortune 500 accounts, inside sales for mid-market, and channel partnerships via MSP/VMS programs. In June 2024, TSR was acquired by Justin Christian, founder and CEO of BCforward, taking the company private after prior public listing on NASDAQ as TSRI; the combined entity seeks to broaden professional services and global reach for both clients and candidates.

Revenue model

1. Staffing and Talent Solutions: TSR provides staff augmentation services including direct-to-client talent delivery, MSP-aligned delivery, and permanent placement. Revenue is generated through mark-up on contractor rates (contingent staffing), placement fees for permanent hires (typically a percentage of annual salary), and management fees for MSP programs. They source talent for both technical and business roles across five industry verticals.
2. Payrolling / Employer of Record (EOR) Services: TSR operates as an Employer of Record under its payrolling model, where clients recruit and TSR handles employment, onboarding, payroll, compliance, and administrative overhead. Revenue is generated through administrative fees or mark-up on wages paid to contingent/gig workers. The model covers contingent hiring and gig workforce management.
3. Professional Services / Consulting: TSR delivers consulting engagements across AI, Agile transformation, ERP, HRIS, OCM, and PMO. Engagements are structured as managed services (SLA-governed), deliverable/milestone-based projects, or hybrid models. Revenue is earned through time-and-materials, fixed-price, or outcome-based fee structures depending on the engagement model.
