CLEVELAND, OH (July 9, 2025) – HS Financial Group, LLC (HSF) and Coast Professional, Inc. (Coast) are proud to announce the formation of BridgeCX, LLC (BridgeCX), a certified Mentor-Protégé Agreement (MPA) Joint Venture. The partnership brings together HSF’s proven performance as a federal contractor and Coast’s 49+ years of experience in contact center operations and business process outsourcing (BPO). HSF is a HUBZone-certified, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) known for delivering personalized, high-quality receivables management across public and private sectors.

BridgeCX operates U.S.-based contact centers and provides multilingual service, voice analytics, and full compliance with federal data security and privacy standards. The joint venture was created to help federal agencies meet small business subcontracting goals while delivering scalable, high-quality support for complex programs.

Through BridgeCX, clients gain access to a full suite of contact center and BPO services, including inbound and outbound operations, omnichannel communication, multilingual support, business analytics, and vendor oversight.

The team has a proven track record of rapidly launching large-scale operations while maintaining service quality and client trust, supported by award-winning training.

“BridgeCX represents a strong combination of our shared commitment to performance, security, and service,” said Timothy M. Sullivan. “This partnership gives us the platform to deliver those qualities at scale while helping agencies meet small business goals with confidence.” A Navy veteran and former Judge Advocate General officer, Mr. Sullivan founded HSF in 2000 and has grown it into a national firm grounded in integrity, responsiveness, and client focus.

“We’re excited about what this collaboration makes possible,” said Jonathan Prince, Chief Executive Officer of Coast. “By aligning our strengths through BridgeCX, we can unlock new opportunities and expand how we support agencies with accountability, flexibility, and purpose.” Mr. Prince has led Coast’s growth into a nationally recognized BPO provider, known for its operational excellence and commitment to clients across government, education, and commercial sectors.
