Along the way, we’ve also expanded our offerings with the launch of HIPP Workforce Solutions, a sister company focused on providing staffing and workforce expertise for our clients.
Our growth has been driven by our commitment to excellence in design, a client-first mentality, and an emphasis on relationship building, which allows us to approach each project with the care and attention it deserves.
