I was able to connect the string pots correctly and read the proper data but I don't have a sturdy connection on a lot of the wires which are twisted together to bridge connections. The string pots are simple three wire(power, ground, sweep) units. I know that the ground from the power supply needs to be connected to the COM of the 9472 and 9201. What is the best way to do this? I currently have a power/ground rail from a breadboard connecting everything but I want to move away from this and have solid connectors if possible.
Is there a module out there where you simply hook up a power supply and output to multiple ports like a breadboard rail?
Thank you!

Yes, those are called bus bar terminal blocks. You can make a robust wiring harness with or without crimped terminals.
One great alternative is using Wago connector that allows you to connect multiple wires reliably and easily
