Our innovative and adaptive solutions will help you optimize operations, drive innovation, improve equity in your park system, and identify improvements to meet the needs of the community now and into the future.
Our 20-years of experience working with local, city, state, and national park agencies in asset management and budget planning combined with our over 30 years of experience improving organizations through strategic and capital planning provides a unique perspective.
“Thanks to FEA’s work on this project, Raleigh Parks now has a much more detailed, comprehensive, and quantitative understanding of our asset portfolio. With tens of thousands of assets across hundreds of sites and facilities, prioritizing a limited budget to address an ever-growing list of deferred maintenance needs has always been a struggle. Today—using the data, tools, and analysis that FEA helped us develop—we are able to take a more holistic, objective, and equitable approach to that decision-making process.”
– TJ McCourt, Planning Supervisor, City of Raleigh
Our team brings together an organizational assessment framework aligned to National Park and Recreation Association (NRPA) Commission for Accreditation of Park and Recreation Agencies (CAPRA) standards. This approach allows us to identify the criteria for performance excellence and lays the foundation for moving from your current state to your desired future state.
“The City of Louisville Parks, Recreation & Open Space Department enjoyed working with FEA as a component of our General Parks Maintenance & Management Plan development process. The final product met all of our expectations and the report is a great resource for our staff, City leadership and residents.”
– Adam Blankenship, Director of Parks, Recreation and Open Space, City of Louisville
Our approach includes assessing where you are now and benchmarking against peers and industry standards to acheive improved performance.
