BOSTON, July 9, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- CommonWealth Purchasing Group (CPG), the nation's leading group purchasing organization for Community Health Centers and other community-based, nonprofit healthcare providers, today announced a strategic partnership with FASTx Partners LLC, a mission-driven firm specializing in fractional executive leadership, consulting, and cybersecurity services. This collaboration will provide CPG's member organizations with access to a unique team of experts equipped to strengthen clinical operations, optimize technology infrastructure, and drive population health improvement.
FASTx Partners is redefining how health centers approach leadership by offering flexible, scalable access to executive-level talent without the cost and commitment of full-time hires. Their fractional and consulting services span across digital infrastructure, cybersecurity, AI innovation, clinical transformation, population health strategy, data analytics, EHR optimization, and operational planning. The FASTx Partners team comprises seasoned CIOs, CISOs, COOs, Population Health Experts, Nurse Executives, and a growing list of leaders with extensive experience across Federally Qualified Health Centers and the broader healthcare industry.
"FASTx Partners brings deep healthcare expertise and a strong commitment to health equity," said Rich Napolitano, Executive Director & Senior Vice President of CommonWealth Purchasing Group. "Their fractional leadership model is well-aligned with the needs of our member organizations, helping them strengthen IT operations, mitigate risk, adopt new technologies, enhance clinical outcomes, and scale their impact."
CPG's network of more than 900 member organizations will now have access to FASTx Partner's specialized services, empowering them to take a more strategic and integrated approach to leadership across departments, whether tackling digital transformation, operational planning, or value-based care delivery.
"Joining CPG's vendor network is an exciting milestone for FASTx Partners," said Chris Grasso, Founder of FASTx Partners LLC. "Health centers face mounting challenges from limited resources and outdated infrastructure to evolving compliance and care delivery demands. We're here to bridge those gaps with trusted, cross-functional leadership that supports sustainable, mission-driven growth."
This partnership ensures that health centers nationwide can access the kind of high-caliber leadership and strategic support typically reserved for large healthcare systems but tailored to the realities and budgets of community-based providers.
