This September, Pawanjit Singh, Chief Information Officer at Centria Autism, was honored with the 2025 Carolina CIO ORBIE Award in the Large Corporate category. This prestigious award recognized his leadership in driving technology-led innovation within the healthcare sector.
Pawan’s acceptance speech highlighted Centria’s commitment to redefining autism care and underscored the collaborative efforts of Centria’s teams with their strategic partners, like Bridgenext. He shared stories of parents witnessing real progress in their children, reinforcing the profound importance of Centria’s mission. By leveraging modern digital platforms, Centria is successfully reducing wait times and scaling access, ensuring more children receive timely and effective therapy. Pawan also emphasized that as global demand for autism services increases, clinicians must be equipped with the necessary tools. He outlined a vision where technology accelerates personalized care by reducing administrative friction and enhancing the clinician experience.
Centria’s AI-first ecosystem brings this vision to life. Solutions like Scout (Centria’s GPT) and Scheduling AI automate routine tasks, streamline complex processes, and provide data-driven insights to support clinical decision-making. By giving clinicians back valuable time, these tools enable them to focus on delivering high-quality, hands-on care.
Lastly, Pawan underscored the vital role of trusted technology partners in driving meaningful progress. “As technology executives, we’re never successful without partners who bring a strong engineering and problem-solving culture and integrate themselves into your organization like an extension of your team. One partner that really stands out is Bridgenext.”
We are honored to be recognized as a strategic partner in Centria’s journey and proud to support Pawan and his team as they transform autism care through purpose-driven technology. His leadership and this recognition reflect the power of collaboration in driving real, human impact across the global healthcare landscape. Congratulations Pawan!
