Fastest Labs

The vendor opportunity at Fastest Labs

Fastest Labs operates 248 total units, 243 of which are franchised, with a single company-owned location. The system grew unit count by 6.114% year-over-year, signaling steady expansion. Average unit volume sits at $156,205, and the royalty rate is 7.0%. For software vendors, the immediate addressable base is those 243 franchised locations, all of which appear to follow HQ technology mandates.

The brand falls under health services and is headquartered in Texas. No parent company is on file, suggesting Fastest Labs is independently owned. This independence often means a leaner decision-making structure, where a single executive or small team controls vendor selection.

Who controls software purchasing

The 2026 Franchise Disclosure Document names one executive in Item 1: Matt Kunz, President & CEO. No other C-suite or IT leadership is listed. In a system of this size and structure, the CEO likely holds direct or delegated authority over technology procurement. Vendors should prepare concise, value-driven pitches that speak to operational efficiency and franchisee compliance, as the CEO is the probable gatekeeper.

No operator-level decision-makers are mapped in our corpus, reinforcing the HQ-centric buying model. If you sell software into this franchise, your conversation starts and ends with the corporate office.

Mandated and current tech stack

Fastest Labs mandates four named systems. Google AdWords is required, indicating centralized or strongly guided digital marketing. A proprietary software system is also mandated—this likely covers core operational workflows such as scheduling, testing management, or reporting. QuickBooks Advanced Online by Intuit Inc. handles accounting. Finally, ZoomInfo Sales with Engage CRM is mandated for sales and customer relationship management.

This stack leaves gaps in areas like HR, payroll, advanced analytics, or industry-specific compliance tools. Any vendor whose product integrates with QuickBooks or sits alongside a proprietary system without conflicting should find a receptive audience if the value is clear.

Procurement, renewals, and timing

Item 8 of the FDD contains no extract regarding procurement or designated suppliers. This absence means the franchise does not publicly disclose a preferred vendor program or approved supplier list in the current filing. Vendors should not assume an open procurement model, but the lack of a published list may indicate flexibility for new solutions that can demonstrate ROI.

Item 17, which typically covers renewal terms, also shows no extract. Combined with an undisclosed initial term length, contract renewal windows cannot be predicted from the FDD alone. Proactive outreach timed to fiscal-year planning cycles is the safest approach.
