The strategic acquisitions of Quest and Syncx earlier in 2026, backed by Interlock Equity, allowed the company to expand as a broader workforce solutions partner with advanced, vendor-neutral technology behind it.
ST. LOUIS, Sept. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- VeloSource LLC ("VeloSource"), a premier St. Louis-based healthcare staffing provider and portfolio company of Interlock Equity ("Interlock"), today announced a new evolution in its brand identity, along with expanded service for healthcare clients. VeloSource is now powered by the intuitive platform technology behind Syncx, which the company acquired earlier in 2026. VeloSource will also fully absorb the brand and operations of Quest Locum Tenens ("Quest"), also acquired at that time.
The transition marks an expansion beyond traditional locums staffing for VeloSource, a longtime leader in the locum tenens physician staffing market. VeloSource has long stood out as a locum tenens-focused staffing solutions provider that actually encourages clients to judiciously utilize internal physician float pools, and assess where and when locums are truly needed. Now, VeloSource will offer clients a one-stop, full suite of quality workforce solutions, including VMS, MSP, transition management, physician float pool, and applicant tracking systems.
"VeloSource has achieved what many standard locum tenens staffing agencies cannot: an evolution into a full-scale workforce solutions provider that meets healthcare systems where they are," said Adam Rousey, Chief Operating Officer of VeloSource. "With Syncx's workforce management technology powering our services, we look forward to bringing even more value to our clients and the contingent staffing space. We are here to help create a sustainable, democratized healthcare marketplace that elevates patient care, and today marks an important advance toward that goal."
"This new phase for our brand is an exciting next step in our company's story," said Jeff Schaal, CEO of VeloSource. "Healthcare organizations's contingent staffing needs have evolved, and they need one stop solutions that can simplify the complexity of hiring locums and other temporary staff, rather than juggle multiple vendors in a fractured environment. We can now proudly assert ourselves as a comprehensive workforce solutions partner, better serving hospitals and health systems through technology-driven efficiency."
The VeloSource Customer Experience
VeloSource leadership has found that most healthcare clients are looking for more than just a MSP, or more than a staffing vendor. For healthcare organizations with an entire ecosystem for contingent staffing, VeloSource is now able to step in and provide a needed audit, along with a platform that enables better use of internal resources.
VeloSource's Transition Management Program, which is now live as part of the new brand launch, is a significant asset for hospitals and health systems struggling with long full-time employee (FTE) vacancies that need to transition to a sustainable, cost-effective staffing model to preserve access for patients. The Transition Management Program combines dedicated provider recruitment, proactive schedule management, cost visibility, and an intentional exit strategy designed around every facility's goals.
Some of the biggest differences existing VeloSource customers have already observed as part of the company's brand evolution include:
- A dedicated, one-stop platform for scheduling contingent staff across departments and specialties;
- Increased capabilities for organizing, auditing, and utilizing internal float pools to fill vacancies;
- Technical support to help them gather data, generate reports, and make informed financial decisions with regards to staffing–in the same platform that can handle scheduling and staffing.
A major university hospital system in the northeast U.S. has already benefited from VeloSource's ongoing evolution into a full workforce solutions provider. Since partnering with VeloSource to build a $25 million physician float pool program, the organization has saved more than $40 million on locum tenens staffing spend. Strengthening their internal float pool with VeloSource's platform, powered by Syncx, has also strengthened their bottom line and allowed strategic investments to expand access to care.
"These success stories from our clients are why we do what we do," said Adam Rousey, Chief Operating Officer at VeloSource. "Every client needs something different for their contingent staffing program, and VeloSource is now more able than ever to meet them where they are."
What's Next
The teams at VeloSource and Syncx are continuously working on upgrades to the platform that will improve the healthcare client experience. Upcoming developments include AI integration for credentialing acceleration, and to improve a proprietary scheduling tool showing internal staff, locums vendor, and float pool availability with prioritized recommendations.
