What Our Clients Say About Working with FASTx

“FASTx Partners brought clarity, structure, and partnership to one of the more complex challenges our network has faced. Together, we accomplished this work quickly without sacrificing depth or quality. Chris and her team built trust across agencies, elevated frontline voices, and transformed fragmented system challenges into a clear, actionable roadmap that positions our network for today and for the future. They didn’t just document problems, but they helped us see opportunities.

FASTx also helped us frame the bigger strategic decisions ahead, offering thoughtful pathways for system modernization and helping us understand the implications of each. Their approach was never prescriptive; instead, they supported us in building consensus and preparing our members for informed decision-making. Their work strengthened our collaboration with the state and set the foundation for a modern, unified technology strategy. FASTx has been an exceptional partner and a catalyst for meaningful progress.”

Betsey Crimmins

Their structured, collaborative approach has kept stakeholders engaged, mitigated risk, and ensured alignment with our strategic priorities. As a result of this engagement, Avenue 360 remains on track to implement the solution in Q1 in support of our 2026 organizational goals."

Dr. Shannon Morris

Executive Vice President, Operations

Avenue 360 Health and Wellness

“FASTx Partners helped us bring everyone to the table from our participating health centers to our data system vendor to chart a unified path forward. They took the time to listen to us and learn understand each site’s capacity, mapped how data actually moved through our systems, and collaborated with our EHR vendor to define what it would take to move from two separate systems into one.

Their recommendations were clear, achievable, and grounded in the realities of our network’s capacity while staying rooted in the needs of health centers. The result was a practical roadmap that gave us a plan forward, reduces duplication and manual work, strengthens data integrity, and creates measurable cost savings through system consolidation, positioning our network for the next phase of modernization.”
