SEGMENT INFORMATION
SEGMENT INFORMATION

Our operating segments are based on the organizational structure for which financial results are regularly evaluated by the chief operating decision maker, our Chief Executive Officer, to determine resource allocation and assess performance. Our service lines are our operating segments. In the fourth quarter of 2014, we changed our organizational structure as a result of our acquisition of Seaton (see Note 2: Acquisitions for details). Historically, our operations were all in the blue-collar staffing market of the temporary staffing industry and supplied customers with temporary workers, which we aggregated into one reportable segment in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The acquisition of Seaton added a full service line of on-premise temporary blue-collar staffing. On-premise staffing is large scale exclusive sourcing, screening, recruiting, and managing of an on-premise contingent labor workforce at a customers facilities. This service line is an operating segment which is aggregated with our blue-collar staffing services and reported as Staffing Services.

The acquisition of Seaton also added complementary outsourced service offerings in RPO and MSP solutions. RPO is high-volume sourcing, screening, and recruiting of permanent employees for all major industries and jobs. MSP solutions provide customers with improved quality and spend management with respect to their contingent labor vendors. The complementary service lines are operating segments which are aggregated and reported as Managed Services.
Our reportable segments are described below:

Our Staffing Services segment provides temporary staffing through the following service lines:
•
Labor Ready: On-demand general labor;
•
Spartan Staffing: Skilled manufacturing and logistics labor;
•
CLP Resources: Skilled trades for commercial, industrial, and energy construction as well as building and plant maintenance;
•
PlaneTechs: Skilled mechanics and technicians to the aviation and transportation industries;
•
Centerline Drivers: Temporary and dedicated drivers to the transportation and distribution industries; and
•
Staff Management On-premise Staffing: Exclusive recruitment and on-premise management of a facility's contingent industrial workforce.

Our Managed Services segment provides high-volume permanent employee recruitment process outsourcing and management of outsourced labor service providers through the following service lines:
•
PeopleScout and hrX - RPO: Outsourced recruitment of permanent employees on behalf of clients; and
•
Staff Management - MSP: Management of multiple third party staffing vendors on behalf of clients.

We have two measures of segment performance; revenue from services and income from operations. Income from operations for each segment includes net sales to third parties, related cost of sales, and operating expenses directly attributable to the segment. Costs excluded from segment income from operations include various corporate general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization expense, interest (expense) income, other (expense) income, and income taxes. Asset information by reportable segment is not presented, since we do not manage the performance of our segments on a balance sheet basis. There are no internal revenue transactions between our reporting segments. The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

Revenue from services and income from operations associated with our segments were as follows (in thousands):
