Michael Lombardo, CEO of GlideFast Consulting, commented, "GlideFast is the 2022 Global Elite Partner of the year. We are excited to continue to expand our ServiceNow practice by delivering top notch implementation services to ASGN's Fortune 1000 customers. This investment from ASGN will greatly enhance our ability to serve the ServiceNow marketplace.  We appreciate the help and guidance the BV team provided in helping us accelerate our growth and getting us to this successful outcome."

Matt Kinsey, Managing Partner of BV Investment Partners, said, "We partnered with the founders of GlideFast because we shared their vision that the company could build upon its presence in the ServiceNow ecosystem and help companies optimize their investments in the ServiceNow platform.  We're extremely proud of what the team, led by Mike Lombardo, has accomplished over such a short time horizon and look forward to seeing the business continue to expand and innovate in partnership with ASGN."
