Why do points shift when reprojected from WGS84 to a state plane coordinate?

We have a Trimble unit we use to collect equipment.

We collect the data in WGS84 and differentially correct it and then reproject it to a state plan coordinate system.

The points always shift the same distance in the same direction after the reprojection.

What is the reason for this?

Thanks.
