Facility Condition Assessments
Facility planning begins with an understanding of the physical condition of your buildings and infrastructure. FEA’s facility condition assessment (FCA) services provide detailed, consistent, and actionable evaluations that help organizations prioritize investments, reduce risk, and extend the life of facilities. By combining our facility expertise with engineering know-how, we deliver actionable data to make informed, defensible decisions.
We tailor each FCA to your facilities and goals, focusing on accuracy, transparency, and usability of results. Our assessment process includes:
- Collecting and analyzing data on facility systems, equipment, and infrastructure
- Identifying deficiencies, renewal needs, and deferred maintenance
- Calculating facility condition index (FCI) and other key performance metrics
- Integrating results into asset management and capital planning platforms
- Delivering clear, actionable reports that support funding requests and long-term planning
