HQ-led decisions

The Camp

Fitness

Software purchasing at The Camp is controlled at the headquarters level by its founders, Alejandra Font and Dr. Sam Bakhtiar. The franchise mandates three specific technology systems—ABC, Camp On Demand, and GymSales—across its network. With 73 total units and an average unit volume of $464,777, the addressable market for a vendor is concentrated but clearly defined by these tech mandates.

The vendor opportunity at The Camp

The Camp operates 73 total units, 69 of which are franchised, with an average unit volume of $464,777. The brand is shrinking, with a year-over-year unit decline of -9.2%. For a software vendor, this signals a consolidating account base where proving ROI is critical. The addressable market is small but tightly controlled: all 9 mapped operators are single-unit owners, meaning no multi-unit franchisees complicate the sales process. The top states are California (6 units), Texas (2), and Ohio (1).

Who controls software purchasing

Purchasing authority sits with the founders. The FDD lists Alejandra Font and Dr. Sam Bakhtiar as the sole executives. With no parent company on file and a lean operator footprint, a vendor's pitch must resonate directly with this duo. There is no CIO or VP of Technology disclosed, so the buyer persona is the founder-operator. The decision-making level is definitively HQ, given the mandated technology stack.

Mandated and current tech stack

The FDD mandates three systems: ABC, Camp On Demand, and GymSales. These are not optional; every franchisee must use them. This creates both a barrier and an opportunity. Displacing a mandated vendor requires a compelling event at the franchisor level. Integrating with or augmenting these systems is a more viable near-term strategy. The specific functions of ABC and Camp On Demand are not detailed in the FDD extract, but GymSales is a known fitness sales management tool.

Procurement, renewals, and timing

Procurement rules under Item 8 are not disclosed in the available data. Without knowing if The Camp uses a designated supplier model or allows approved alternatives, vendors must assume a closed, HQ-driven process. The initial franchise term is 10 years, with a 5-year renewal requiring 6-12 months' notice. The renewal conditions are strict: no defaults, compliance with all agreements, and a requirement to modernize the center and equipment. This modernization clause is a potential trigger for new technology evaluation. Given the recent unit losses, the franchisor may be focused on stabilizing operations before overhauling tech.

Questions vendors ask

The Camp, answered from the filing

The founders, Alejandra Font and Dr. Sam Bakhtiar, are the key decision-makers listed in the FDD. As the brand has no parent company and a small executive footprint, purchasing authority likely rests directly with them.
The FDD mandates three systems: ABC, Camp On Demand, and GymSales. These are required for all franchisees, covering operational and sales functions.
There are 73 total units: 69 franchised and 4 company-owned. The brand experienced a -9.2% unit decline year-over-year, with a footprint concentrated in California, Texas, and Ohio.
Procurement details are not disclosed in the most recent FDD. The Item 8 signal was not available, so the designated versus approved supplier model remains unclear.
Renewal terms are 5 years, requiring 6-12 months' notice. With a 10-year initial term and recent unit contraction, watch for renewal cycles tied to the original opening dates of the 69 franchised locations.
The FDD was filed with state franchise regulators in 2026. You can review the full document in the embedded PDF viewer below to analyze Item 11 technology mandates and Item 19 financial performance directly.
