Know what you're buying. Know what you're keeping.
Property due diligence that gives you the data, confidence and strategy to make smarter facility investment decisions.
Buying, selling or consolidating facility assets is complex — and the stakes are high.
At FOS, we partner with you to cut through the uncertainty with empirical facility condition data, honest analysis and strategic guidance that helps you understand exactly what you're getting into.
Our due diligence assessments give you an unbiased picture of your portfolio's condition, capital risk and long-term needs.
FOS follows facility condition assessment (FCA) industry standards, at a level of detail through Uniformat specifications, to catalog building and infrastructure elements.
You can negotiate with confidence, plan from day one and avoid the costly surprises that derail even the most attractive deals.
At a fraction of the cost of the transaction itself, the return on investment is immediate.
What's at stake?
Skipping due diligence — or relying on incomplete data — leaves your organization exposed:
Hidden capital liabilities surface after a deal closes, blowing up your budget.
Newly acquired facilities sit in limbo without a clear operational or improvement strategy.
Consolidation decisions get made without accounting for future capital and operational needs.
Negotiating leverage is lost when you don't know the true condition of the assets on the table.
Portfolio right-sizing becomes guesswork instead of a defensible, data-backed plan.
Facility management and capital planning made simple.
Our FOScore® platform brings clarity and confidence in the decisions that shape your built environment. Simplify complex data into actionable insights, providing the information and analysis you need to understand your facilities, prioritize what’s needed most and plan with precision.

Have questions? We’re here to help.
A property due diligence assessment gives you an objective, data-informed picture of a facility's physical condition, capital needs and risk profile. You need one any time you're buying, selling or consolidating facility assets — before the deal closes, not after.
A facility condition assessment (FCA) is the foundation of our due diligence work, but due diligence goes further. We layer in strategic analysis — capital risk, portfolio optimization, consolidation planning and onboarding support — to give you everything you need to make a fully informed investment decision.
Due diligence assessments represent a small fraction of the overall cost of a sale or acquisition. Our clients consistently recognize an immediate return on that investment — often by uncovering liabilities that shift negotiations or prevent costly post-close surprises.
Absolutely. Right-sizing your portfolio — balancing space inventory against operational demand and available resources — is one of the most valuable things we help organizations work through. We bring the data and the advisory expertise to help you make that call with confidence.
Yes. We don't just hand you a report and walk away. We help you build a proactive capital improvement plan, support incoming facilities staff with onboarding tools and work with you to implement a long-term strategy from day one.
