Press Release
April 29, 2025
Central Florida, 4/29/2025 – Puma Managed IT is proud to announce that Stacy Lambert, BSN, RN, has joined the executive team as Chief Operating Officer and Vice President of Healthcare. Stacy brings a rare combination of clinical insight and executive leadership, having spent more than a decade guiding urgent care operations across multi-site, multi-state healthcare organizations during periods of rapid growth and acquisition.
Throughout her career, Stacy has led with empathy, operational clarity, and a deep respect for the people behind the care. She has built high-performing teams, scaled organizations across multiple states, and fostered cultures where growth never comes at the expense of quality. Her understanding of operations and frontline care gives her a unique lens into what matters most—something that aligns directly with PUMA’s mission to elevate the human experience by serving those who serve others.
Stacy’s transition from the provider side to managed services was fueled by firsthand experience managing IT challenges in clinical settings. Her unique perspective—as a nurse, operator, and former healthcare client of IT services—brings immediate value to PUMA’s healthcare-centric mission.
“My career began in direct patient care as a Registered Nurse, and as I moved into leadership roles, I learned the importance of operational excellence and strong partnerships,” said Stacy. “Joining PUMA allows me to bring those perspectives together to elevate the IT services healthcare organizations receive, where reliability and speed are critical.”
Stacy will be responsible for operational leadership and for scaling PUMA’s tailored IT services—refining solutions for healthcare practices and extending their impact to retail environments that require speed, consistency, and customer trust. With Stacy’s leadership, PUMA is well-positioned to redefine how IT enables healthcare organizations to operate more efficiently, securely, and confidently in a tech-driven future.

Give us a call to reviewPuma has been innovating for decades by rethinking how technology and services are valued. Currently, we are leveraging generative and LLM AI models to enhance business processes and workflows. This innovation allows us to resolve issues faster, manage more efficiently, and rethink how AI can replace cost center functions, reduce risks, and improve security posture.
Leveling up our Dispatching and Issue Assignment: Our AI-driven system automatically assigns tasks to the most qualified technicians, eliminating the need for manual dispatching and routing. This not only ensures that the right engineer is assigned to your issue but also guarantees faster response times and optimizes resource allocation. As a result, we can handle more requests with fewer, yet more highly qualified, engineering resources.
