VERTEX Expands Healthcare Program Management Capabilities with Acquisition of ADAMS
Strategic acquisition enhances full-lifecycle support for complex healthcare capital projects and expands national reach
Chicago, Ill., August 7, 2025 — The VERTEX Companies, LLC (“VERTEX”), a Wind Point Partners (“Wind Point” or the “Firm”) portfolio company and global professional services firm, has acquired ADAMS Management Services Corporation (“ADAMS”), a nationally recognized leader in healthcare program and project management. ADAMS’ capabilities complement Vertex’s focus on delivering expert, forensic, construction project advisory, and management and regulatory consulting services. This strategic acquisition strengthens VERTEX’s healthcare sector expertise, expands its national reach and enhances its ability to support complex capital programs from planning through execution.
The combined team provides clients with a single, integrated partner capable of supporting large-scale capital programs at every phase of the project lifecycle. This integration reinforces VERTEX’s position as a leader in healthcare program management and brings together two firms with a shared focus on quality, agility and client success.
“Bringing ADAMS into VERTEX is a strategic step in our continued expansion in healthcare,” said David Tortorello, Chief Executive Officer of VERTEX. “Their nearly four decades of healthcare program management experience, deep client relationships and strong cultural alignment make this a natural fit. Together, we are positioned to bring even greater value to clients in healthcare and beyond.”
“With VERTEX’s multidisciplinary team behind us, we can scale our services, take on more complex projects and continue to provide the responsive, high-touch support our clients expect,” said Jeff Christmann, Chief Executive Officer of ADAMS. “Our commitment to quality and precision remains unchanged, and this move strengthens our ability to deliver.”
Nathan Brown, Managing Director at Wind Point, commented, “A core tenet of the VERTEX value creation plan has been expanding practice capabilities and end-market coverage through M&A. The acquisition of ADAMS is closely aligned with this strategy, and we look forward to supporting the growth of the combined businesses.”
The acquisition of ADAMS marks VERTEX’s seventh acquisition under Wind Point ownership.
