Commercial

The best work happens in buildings that work.

Your facilities are where productivity happens, where talent decides whether to stay and where operating costs can quietly eat into returns. We help commercial clients take control of their built environment with the data, planning and practical guidance to run leaner, spend smarter and create spaces where people genuinely want to show up.

FOS Services

Less guesswork. More control.

It's hard to make good decisions about your facilities when you lack full clarity about their actual condition. Our facility condition assessments give commercial owners and operators a clear, current picture of building health across their portfolio, covering structural systems, mechanical and electrical infrastructure, envelope performance and interior condition.

That baseline is where every smart capital decision starts. When an acquisition or lease commitment is on the table, our due diligence assessments make sure you know what you're getting into before you sign.

No need to inherit problems that quietly erode returns from day one.

Planning Foundation

With a reliable condition picture in hand, we help you build the planning tools to stay ahead of your portfolio.

Asset Tagging & Inventory

Asset tagging and inventory creates an organized, accessible record of every building system you own or manage, making maintenance scheduling, vendor management and lifecycle planning much more efficient.

Capital Improvement Plan

That foundation feeds into a prioritized capital improvement plan built around your investment horizon, backed by cost estimates your finance team can use with confidence. No inflated contingencies, no back-of-envelope numbers.

Compliance Exposure

We also help commercial clients get ahead of compliance exposure before it becomes a liability.

ADA & Code Assessments

Our ADA and code assessments identify gaps across your properties and give you a clear remediation path, protecting asset value and reducing friction in lease negotiations and transactions.

Energy Audits

And if energy spend is a meaningful line item in your portfolio, our energy audits identify the highest-return efficiency opportunities, helping you lower operating costs, strengthen performance and meet the sustainability benchmarks that tenants and investors increasingly expect.

Common challenges

The costs you might not be seeing yet.

Facility risk in commercial real estate rarely announces itself. It builds quietly, until it shows up in a capital call, a lease negotiation or a repair that nobody budgeted for.

Deferred Maintenance

Deferred maintenance that's been pushed down the priority list, quietly compounding into a more expensive problem than it needed to be.

Inconsistent Facility Data

Inconsistent facility data across a portfolio that makes it hard to compare assets, model capital needs or make acquisition decisions with real confidence.

Capital Plans

Capital plans that don't have the cost credibility to hold up when ownership or investors need to approve them.

Workspace Conditions

Workspace conditions affect how people feel about coming to work and whether they stay once they're there.

Compliance Exposure

Compliance exposure from ADA or code deficiencies that surfaces at the worst possible moment, usually during a transaction or tenant negotiation.

Energy & Operating Costs

Energy and operating costs that have crept up without a clear picture of where the waste is or what it would take to address it.

Key benefits

What your facilities data can do for your bottom line.

Our approach combines on-site expertise with data-driven analysis to help organizations reduce uncertainty, protect investments and plan with confidence. 

Protect and grow asset value

Proactive facility management keeps buildings in the condition that supports strong lease rates, clean transactions and the returns your portfolio is built to deliver.

Cut operating costs without cutting corners

Energy audits and planned maintenance strategies reduce what it costs to run your buildings without compromising the quality of the environment you're providing.

Spaces that bring out the best in people

Well-maintained facilities send a signal. They tell employees and tenants that the organization behind the building pays attention and takes pride in what it owns.

Acquisitions you can close with confidence

Due diligence assessments give you a clear-eyed view of condition and capital exposure before you commit, so there aren't surprises waiting on the other side of closing.

Compliance risk off the table

A documented ADA and code remediation plan removes a common source of friction in lease negotiations, renewals and dispositions.

Capital plans that get approved

Accurate, defensible cost estimates and a prioritized improvement plan give ownership and investors what they need to say yes to the right projects at the right time.

Let's talk

Every building in your portfolio deserves a plan.

Whether you're managing a single property or a multi-market portfolio, we can help you build the data foundation and capital strategy to run your buildings better. Let's have a real conversation about where you are and what better looks like for you.

Frequently asked questions

Have questions? We’re here to help.

We manage a mixed portfolio of property types. Can you assess all of them?

Yes, and that's actually where consistent methodology matters most. Whether your portfolio includes office, industrial, retail or mixed-use properties, our assessments produce comparable condition data across every asset type. That consistency is what makes portfolio-level analysis and capital planning genuinely useful, rather than a collection of disconnected reports that don't talk to each other.

How quickly can you turn around a due diligence assessment for a deal in progress?

We know acquisition timelines don't wait. We routinely scope and deliver due diligence assessments within the windows that commercial transactions require. The sooner you bring us in, the more thorough we can be, so it's always worth a conversation early in the process rather than right before closing.

How do energy audits translate into actual performance improvement?

Our energy audits identify specific, quantified opportunities with projected savings and estimated implementation costs, so you've got a clear return-on-investment picture for each measure. For net lease properties, reduced energy costs can also be a meaningful tool for tenant retention and attraction. We model the impact in terms that connect directly to how you think about operating performance.

We're preparing for a disposition. How can facility condition data help?

It puts you in control of the narrative. Rather than waiting for a buyer's inspector to surface issues that become negotiating leverage against you, you walk in with a clear picture of the asset and a documented plan for any known deficiencies. That transparency builds buyer confidence and tends to make transactions cleaner and faster for everyone involved.

Our tenants are pushing back on operating expenses. Can you help us make the case?

Absolutely. Detailed asset inventory and condition documentation gives you a defensible, transparent basis for operating expense conversations. When you can show the condition of systems, and the cost basis for maintenance decisions, those conversations get a lot more grounded. We help you build the documentation that makes explaining your costs straightforward rather than defensive.
